So we're finally getting the pool re-redone. Having to sue the initial contractor as his work was Crud and he refuses to take any responsibility - which here means supreme court as the value is over 5k, so he will have a very expensive outcome. The new contractor has demoed the pool back to...

Pool guy came out and I think his initial reaction was to put lipstick on a pig and clean up some areas, acid wash, and be done. He also said that it was "an exposed aggregate finish" and that its normal because its hand troweled etc. (it's not normal). After I walked the pool and pointed out a...

Here is the plaster day time lapse - I'll put all the days together and make a long one.

Overall picture of the pool. Didn't include he also dinged up all the coping, didn't protect the exterior finish, and never cleaned up after. So that all should get corrected as well. I withheld 10% of the total cost to correct the issues, or I think he may not have come back. He'll have...

I stayed off of here because the builder said he was coming back to correct it. So now we're to the point where the pool is drained to fix the issues. It's been 6 weeks since it was done. Startup per his instructions and I scrubbed every day for two weeks, and every other day after that for...

Can I add sequestrate now before or while doing a wet acid wash? Or do it after?

Thanks - I've been reading that and everything else obsessively. Hopefully today they'll be back...

Good Day All - after a few years, probably too many, we pulled the trigger to redo the pool. I'll post some pictures and timelapses shortly. My first question - the pool guys finished the plaster on Friday, we've been filling and this morning it's finally full. PH 8.2, Alkalinity 80, CH...

Will a US Motors replacement fit the same as a Century AO Smith if they are both 56J? The pictures look slightly different in their attachment method?

I think this is what I need? U.S. Motors Emerson EB2975 Emerson 56J C-Flange Dual Speed 1.0/0.12HP Full Rated Pool and Spa Motor Would I need a separate mechanical timer, or just some kind of switch to kick it into high mode to clean?

Thanks Jim! Good point on the digital switch. Mechanical we will go. Here are the pictures, had to upload to a server and reference:

Good Day All I've done some research and on one of the threads here it said to post your setup for advice. Appreciate any feedback! We are in the Bahamas and our pump has died. Currently just adding liquid pool bleach and a robot cleaner. Imoort duties and taxes are expensive here and markups...

Good day all, I am getting my pool refinished and would like to modify it a bit for a sun shelf and change the steps. The pool is 15x30. I would like the sun shelf to be 9' of the width of the shallow end and the stairs the remaining 6'. The sunshelf would extend 5' of the length of the pool...
