Great looking pool. When I saw your yard get back into shape I breathed a sigh of relief because my yard is so trashed I wondered if it would ever look good again. Good to see that it is all repairable....

Thanks skylar18
It has turned out nicer than expected. Sometimes it hard to believe that you will get your yard back. They really rip it up.

We are almost finished and we are very pleased with the outcome. There are some drainage issues with the yard to be resolved along with adding Salt in a couple of weeks. Overall We are very please with the PB and the final results.

Very nice. Are you driving all your water features off if the same pump?

Thanks jhalpinjr and Ksnewman

Cajun,

Yes all the water features along with my main return are run off the Pentair intelliflow 3050.

It's a great looking pool. I'm sure you guys will get much enjoyment out of it.

Have some concerns on the pebblesheen. I noticed this evening when brushing the pool some light color streaks. They look like light color mud smudges about 1" wide by 2 to 3" long. About
V. 5 or 6 in one 4' area. Tried brushing but nothing.



Turns out to only be clay smudges on the bottom. SUrprised they just didn't brush out.

Wow, looks beautiful! Congrats!I haven't been on in a while.. love your scuppers! Mine dont flow like that, the water falls flat onto the flagstone... again, those rock guys!! I wonder if can be fixed. I will post a pic. Geeze... I need to post final pics and will try this week. Super busy.

Do you need more flow?, not sure if you have a variable speed pump or not, but with my sheer descents I can make them shoot way out by increasing the pump rpm.

Texgirl,

Thanks. Hope everything went well for your Son's birthday. It was a really nice weekend. My boys and I actually got in our pool even though we haven't started up the heater yet. A little chilly at 70 degrees.

For the scuppers it might be how they laid out your rock as the water on mine flows about 16 inches from pipe to the end of the rock. It's channeled underneath the coping and out to the exposed stone. Also the edge needs to be sharp to get the smooth flow. 1 of the scuppers has a couple of small gouges on the end and the falls is split, so that definitely makes a difference as well.

We are done. Pool turned out great. Salt was added on Friday and everything is up and running like it suppose to. Now if we can get rid of these cold spell that keep coming through.
