We are just excavating now so our window for changes is closing but any advice would be greatly appreciated.
We are trying to do a 400 BTU gas heated pool, with infloor cleaning, spa, gas firepit, 1000 sq feet of paver decking and full landscaping under 50K so we are having to be disciplined on some things. I'm wondering about the things we should wire/plumb for now even if we can't afford to add features later. We have three umbrella holes (they're only $40) which should give some nice shade.
For example we love the lighted deck jets, but they're not in our budget - since we're going pavers could we add those later? With pavers could we lift them up 10 years from now?
We have bubblers (not LED), but I'm wondering if we'll regret not adding electrical?
We're in AZ and I'm worried about the pool being too hot in the summer - should we be adding anything in now to be able to cool it when we're spending more time there (this is a vacation home now until we retire). I see lots of PVC solutions that plug into the vacuum spot but am not sure if we'd need something added now since we have infloor cleaning and the heated water comes into the floor of the pool not the side.
Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated.
