Thank you 1poolman1 - "as the in-floor distribution valve opens and closes ports, the flow can vary considerably (actually nearly a dead-dead condition very briefly) and would, likely, cause the heater to cycle on and off continually" I am not sure I follow. So the in floor cleaning system has...

Thank ajw22 - So adding additional flow of heated water will not = faster heating time as BTU remain the same. I think I follow. So the current pop up valves although they are not putting out hot water it still circulates the water in the pool for an even ten across the pool ?

Hello DavidArmenB - actually that is exactly what he said but I am not sure I understand why the issue with filtered water. Would it not be the same ? Is it because unfiltered water will damage the pool heater?

Here are additional pics Hello HermanTX - appreciate the response. I am not an expert but will do my beat to answer. I am not sure on why the BP used two different pumps to draw suction from the same pipe or why the waterfall is connected to the main filter pump. Does it make a difference if I...

I recently purchased and had a new heater install. My question is, I have two pumps. One feeds the pool and the other the infloor cleaning system. The pool heater sends hot water to the wall jets and the water falls. I asked the pool builder why I do not have the in floor pop up valves throw hot...

I am about to start construction on new pool. While going over details with PB we came across the light swicth location. The options are to run conduit to a column or wall the sits on the outside porch. I am concern about the look and functionality. If I want to turn my pool light I need to go...

I appreciate the feedback. I will talk to PB and see what would be the cost of extending. What do you think is the ideal length?

We are on the initial phase. Could I get your opinion on the lay out? This is a simple build with some water feature. Gunite construction and I included dimensions.

Appelbe, I am building in Katy tx- could you give an insight to you builder and cost. You have a beautiful pool. Could you inbox me? Thank you!

ozdiver, No tree removal. It is a flat surface. Gunite would be my choice with pebble sheen. Depth 31/2 to 51/2. The area around the pool would be small. No heating needed. The rest I am flexible. No fire pit .

Hello, I in need of a reputable pool builder in Katy Tx. Any suggestions for those Houston members? What should I expect to pay for a pool build with no hot tub? Thank you in advance.

I like these and wonder if o have 4 1/2 inches f water on my sun deck , will they float ? I wonder if I can fill tHem with water? Any feedback will be appreciated!

Thanks for the feedback. I wanted to ask you, the PB will use white pepple and add blue quartz. What do y ou think?

Fair, I agree with you. I guess my concern is not seeing the blue plaster in a year. What about the white peple with mix in blue quartz?

Hello All, I wanted to revive this topic in order to make a final take. The pool company had been very good and we have agreed to replaster with peple from Wet Edge. The color I have chosen is called caribean. A mix of blue black brown in a foundation of light blue plaster. The question is the...

No, it is not a heated pool...

Thank you very much for the response how much should I pay for the pepple knowing that I paid for the white plaster allready? My pool is 14,000 gallons to give you an idea.

:) Gracias. His concern is that down in the Rio Grande Valley water is extremely high in minerals. They do good work but sub contract the plaster application. I requested to see the pepple in other pools. He is quoting me $2,900 for peeple from regular upgrade price of $5,800.

Thank you for the feedback.This has been frustrating and you and other on this forum have kept me optimistic . I really appreciate the guidance. I believe I should not pay but the pool builder tells me that he can not absorb the replaster job and pepple. They are quoting $2,900 for pepple...

Well.... we have gone around for two months and the final outcome was that they took ownership of the plaster not looking right. They told me the water quality contributed to the deterioration. In order to avoid issues they do not want to plaster in white instead they will add color. I was...

My pool is about three months old and because there was an issue with grey color coming from under the plaster they have agreed to replaster. My builder told me that the only condition is that I have to upgrade to pepple or quartz. What should I go for? Thanks

My pool builder will replaster but will only do it if I upgrade to pepple or quartz. What do you recommend?

Thank you Onbalance, I agree with you. I am taking a proactive approach and was receptive to them. I believe during this situations one needs to have a positive perspective. They will come out and sand part of my "sundeck" in order to not drain the entire pool before taking a final approach. If...

My builder has an update me with a response: 1. They will acid wash, drain and sand at their cost. 2. Replaster the pool but I have to pay the the work at their "cost". I am very concern about this!! Could anyone advise of how I should proceed? Obviously I will not accept either. I feel they...
