    Advice needed on selecting equipment for a renovation

    Good point. I thought we’d probably need the IC60. Does the bundle mean a savings or just that it’s all made to work together and/or easier? Thank you for taking the time to help. It means so much!

    Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to respond. But isn’t Mastertemp gas only?

    Advice needed on selecting equipment for a renovation

    Hello everyone - I’ve tried to research the forum for the latest information/equipment from Pentair, but realized that it might be easier if I just post and ask for your advice and recommendations. Their website is overwhelming, as I just need to know what the best workhorses are! I’m a...

    New Dilemma with the Pool of Doom

    Thank you! It’s been a crazy journey and nice to read that someone likes it! It was a big compromise, but I’m happy with it. Just hope the sharp corners on the steps don’t hurt anyone. Haven’t been in it since it was completed last September 🤦‍♀️

    New Dilemma with the Pool of Doom

    THANK YOU for your kind words! BSame tile guy unfortunately (the work was under warranty). He got so mad at me for pointing out issues during the process and wasn’t listening to me AGAIN. He walked off the job on a Saturday (I had a pre planned event there the next Tuesday evening). The PB...

    New Dilemma with the Pool of Doom

    This is the day after the tile was replaced and filled with water for an event that night. This is the only photo I have of the finished pool. Guess I need to take one! None of these people are me btw 😆

    @kimkats This is the Atlanta pool with my beautiful glass tile. 😞

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    I need that front edge to be all one material to match the Midnight Blue finish so the color appears to flow into the ocean. I may not be describing this well … The Atlanta lap pool debacle. It’s been a while. I was so upset I couldn’t even come on the forum to talk about pools. :(

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    Thank you Kim! Mine too. Now I’ve got to figure out where to find pavers to match waterline tile or vice versa. Then they will most likely be a different height than the rest of the deck. Whyyyyy can’t I do an easy pool?? Oh - we had to rip out all of our gorgeous Oceanside Glass Tile on the...

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    Kim - here’s a wood rail with glass pickets. This is at a hotel on the island: This is the type of railing we are considering. We may have to use aluminum or stainless rails, but hoping for the most minimal hardware possible:

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    There are ways to coat it to resist spotting (what’s the name of the stuff for car windshields??) but it’s the only solution that seems to work. We checked on acrylic (commonly referred to as bulletproof glass) and the cost was astronomical. Wire cables don’t stay taut and people tend to stand...

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    We have, but the expense to demo that wall and rebuild with the 18’ drop just makes it impractical - and dangerous. Friends there with zero edges say they cannot keep people (usually kids) off the edge. We also rent the house and need to sleep at night!

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    Thank you! This is the main reason we want the connection to the ocean. The existing rail is wood and stucco and it strangely is so bold you completely have no connection to the ocean when you’re on the pool level. The drop is 18 ft to a small flat area, then a very steep hill full of cacti...

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    Ha! That’s a recent photo when my husband and a friend were placing the finish samples on the floor of the pool so we could see them. I’ve never taken a photo from that angle until last week. The existing vintage railing is interesting, but completely blocks the view.

    False or Faux Negative Edge/Infinity Pool - does anyone have photos?

    Hi again - still trying to figure out a clever way to create the illusion of an infinity edge when remodeling an existing pool. We have the perfect setting for a real infinity pool, but being on the desert side of an island with constant trade winds makes it very impractical, not to mention...

    What is this type of minimal edge with no railing?

    Thank you!! I started looking at glass panels today and this was great to see when I popped on here to search for glass/acrylic panels. I’ve written to them. Thank you so much!

    What is this type of minimal edge with no railing?

    Has anyone ever fallen? I’ve seen huge infinity pools on hotel rooftops. I wonder how they mitigate the danger? I guess a catch basin? Thank you for your message. Definitely something I need to consider.

    What is this type of minimal edge with no railing?

    We get constant wind, salt water and very harsh sun. We imagine it would require constant cleaning. Have you used before? If so what type/weight/thickness/brand? Our neighbor has flat glass slats/pickets which does allow wind through, but glass + pool is scary. Still - a thought for sure...

    What is this type of minimal edge with no railing?

    Per my previous post a couple of days ago, my husband and I are having to remodel our pool on our new home on St Croix USVI due to many issues. Having now researched infinity and zero edge pools over the past few days and talking to people on the island, I am now understanding these edges are...
