Also, that wall needs to be waterproofed front and back or its going to bleed through tile

If you don't already have engineering for this then that's a problem

Acid bath lower pH below 7.0 use a sump pump to move water around and brush for 3-4 days will comes off or do a drain and acid wash

Pretty typical we use stonescapes on about 600 pools a year anything with black pebble depends on what quarry it comes from, but it can vary quite a bit.

As a Gunite company owner these cracks are just surface shrinkage cracks completely harmless all concrete cracks you'll get similar ones on your decking plaster will fill it those are to small to even accept filler especially when vertical proceed to plaster no worries at all.

I'd be willing to bet those cracks go away once the pool is full of water this happens on most plaster jobs it's just shrinkage cracks once the plaster is hydrated they will close up and go away.

There estimate literally states. that they didn't chip the plaster out they just pressure washed it to "rough" it up and went over the old surface. i have countless videos of jobs we have re-done because they have hollow spots everywhere 3-6 months down the road over this.

I specialize in the Quartz Product. We do about 10 installs a week of this product, it does not look like the proper steps were taken once it was installed. First off night photos are where you are going to see many imperfections in any finish that is normal no surface is going to be completely...

The gear box i have a few here at my shop let me open one up and try too send you a video

Those mixing valves are fun to work with. I'd open it up and check if any debris is trapped in it. I've had the smallest debris get trapped inside and make it so that it won't cycle properly.

IQ20a doesn't work on mesh networks. you'll need to upgrade to the new IQ30a which can talk to mesh networks.

The heat pump should be plumbed off your filter pump so it should always have filtered water no need to have a separate suction and return for it.

Do you have an IQ30a or IQ20a? that would be the antenna.

As a builder, this is pretty normal the deck looks like it's having efflorescence issues which is normal and not a structural issue or warranty issue. Probably poured when it was pretty wet out and lots of moisture in the ground, I'd give it time to dry out and then look at it. As for the...

You can see all the dust build up nothing has even been brushed yet. brush pool you'll be fine

If the pool was just filled and the start-up hasn't even been done yet I wouldn't worry about it yet. looks like a quartz finish do a hot acid start up and it will be fine i do this same application 300x a year without issues it always starts like this.

Typically you can only push so much water out of the jets because of the orifice size, that's why when you have a spa it would be advised to have a "hot water return" so that you can move more volume of water to go over the spillway and also not have to have the jets on, if that's not what you...

Depends how it was plumbed, if they didn't use any 2" hot water return lines it may be hard to push that volume of water over that spillway. If they did plumb the piping size correctly you can force more water to the spa and turn the speed of the pump up so that it can make it over that ledge

In all honesty dig doesn't really matter owning a pool construction and gunite company we try to have our digs as clean as possible and leave as much dirt for benches. cabo shelfs, ect because we will save money and be more profitable on our gunite side which is a HUGE expense so any builder who...

I'd just replace it.

I own a Gunite company flashing is completely normal if you're worried about weather builder is just doing you a favor cost us more money to flash a pool then show up a 2nd time to actually shoot it be thankful they are offering to do so most builders would just let it cave in then change order...

I do Jandy warranty and i had this issue on a few boards a couple weeks back, after trouble shooting and going back through everything i noticed some of the communication wires on the red 4 pin that the builder installed where loose or stripped back to far that one was touching another or on one...

Are they both doing the same thing ? have you tried the re sync function on the control panel ?

In northern california all of our skimmers are incased in gunite and rebar.....

what pump is it ?

does your builder happen to be robert hill ? Mod note: please do not answer this on the main board. Thank you!

Muriatic acid can lower your pH really quick in big doses for a 5100 gallon pool id recommend adding around have a cup and letting it circulate for about 30 minutes or so and then re check your chemicals levels

Have you considered just switching to a variable speed pump much more efficient and a lot quieter then the single speed

I install them on all of my new builds we did about 60 of them this year here locally in Sacramento, CA we love them better water efficiency and if you get the one with the built in bypass you also get a longer life out of the heater since when its not in use you are not doing needless wear and...

What type of pump is it? is it a variable speed or a single speed pump do you have any pictures so i can give you a better answer ?
