We're nearing the end of our pool remodel. There is small gravel/stones and dirt in the bottom of the skimmer lines (under the baskets) and small rocks in the pool and spa drains.
I asked the PB why they didn't block off the lines (like with a sponge) during the remodel, he said, "we'll clean all that out".
I'm worried that it all won't get cleaned out properly and be sucked in / through my new pool equipment, possibly causing damage or even shortening the life of the equipment.
Are these valid concerns? What do other PBs do? I'd like to see the lines flushed out prior to start up. Your thoughts?
