Just got the call from our pool builder, Sundancer Pools in San Diego, that our permit has been approved and that excavators can be out here on Wednesday, August 31st. Estimated completion date -- sometime in November, hopefully in the first half.
I'll post pictures/etc and all details as build progresses, but for general info -- here are rough specs:
34x16 In Ground Gunite, 4ft shallow end, 7.5 ft deep end
550 sq ft helio cool solar + 110K pentair heat pump
automatic safety cover by pool safe w/ encapsulated recessed track
saltwater, pentair intelli chem + intellichlor, auto muriatic acid
Intellitouch i5 automatic controls w/ indoor panel
intelliflow 4x160 variable speed pump, Quad DE Filter
3" plumbing, deep heating, water auto fill
wide steps at entrance in shallow end,
small built in steps in deep end for exit,
durable sealed rails at both entrance and exit,
dual drains separated by 3ft, hydrostatic valve
1 cleaner outlet, 1 skimmer, 2-3 inlets
small shed to cover all pool equipment
~800 sq ft of sealed stamped concrete decking (many discussion about how to make non-slippery)
blue granite pebble sheen
First jump into any major construction project but I think I did my due diligence when designing and selecting builder, along w/ signing contract. Scared to death of anything going wrong during implementation (especially with san diego construction costs), but hopefully we'll have a nice pool soon.
