Hello All
Im new to the forum and new to pools.
My wife and I just contracted for a inground free form gunite pool with raise spa. We are getting a free form 38x21 that goes from 3-6' (approx 30,000 gal )with standard brick coping, Ansylbrite finish, 2-6 ft swimouts and something the builder calls a "cozy corner" - which a fancy name for a large entry way with seating benches, Also, an 7' round, 18 inch raised spillover spa, all surounded by 1300 Sq ft of brushed concrete patio.
Since I'm new to pools, I'm very open to suggestions, especially on items that have to be done while in the building phase. So please feel free to shout out any advice (ex - Umbrella holes etc)
Our Pool Package comes with the usually assortment of standard items, but I have some choice to make.
Such as
Filter - Choice of Sand, DE or cartriage - (I'm leaning toward Cartriage)
Pentair pump
Nature 2 (although I'm starting to lean towards Salt)
Raypak Heater
LED lights (1 one pool 1 in Spa)
Jandy wireless remote
Polaris 360 robot
Decision I still need to make are
-Filter Type
-Nature 2 vs SWG
-Pool cover and a safety solution - Been looking at Katchakid net and Katch a leaf systems since I believ they use the same set of anchors. Which is rare, as all the other would require 2 sets of holes to be drilled - There has to be someone out there that offers safety fence or net that can use the pool cover anchor system
-Waterline tile
Thanks in advance for your help
