    We Have a Winner! Photo Contest! TFP Pool of the Month (April 2024); Theme - Unique Pool Features

    So... just doing the math. A keg holds 82 12oz beers, that's 12,300 beers in 5 years. Thats almost 7 beers a day!!! You are an awesome neighbor. I just hope you don't need to start building a Tiki dialysis machine as the next project :LOL:

    Since cold weather is on the brain right now, do you use the outdoor kitchen year-round? PS - I love the vent-a-hoods and backsplash. Good job!

    TFP Expert Discussion - Pumps, Filters, Heaters

    Awesome job guys, and thank you for answering my question on any sort of maintenance I should be doing on my VS pump. I have the same question on my heater (natural gas). Is there anything I should be doing maintenance wise to ensure I get the full life out of my heater, or any type of heater?
