I spray painted the inside with flat black and they came out really good. Everything else came black. Are you using Larry and Rich as well?

Good to know that it is fine to paint. I sent them the link to pentair that have the black skimmers. We'll see how that goes.
I am getting a price from Larry, but I am going to get a bunch of quotes on the patio work. 2000 sqft patio, so I need to shop it.

Painting plastic is ok with correct paint and prep, but it will eventually need to be redone. Of course, black plastic fades too.
Are they doing the hot tub as well? Are they putting concrete in the seats and stairs as well?
Yes and yes. Not sure when that goes in but no equipment is being installed this winter.
We took advantage of a nice fall day to get the liner installed. It's finally time to put the water in!
Thanks Doobs. Great process so far. Love Family pools! They said they'll cover it. I don't have a lot of trees, so it wouldn't do much. But it might make me feel better that it's slightly protected.
Bobby,
It got covered and fenced in already before I could get photos of it filled. I will probably uncover it in a week or so and snap a few photos.
However, here is fellow board member Doobs liner that sold me on the black liner and the pool builder as well.

Coming along nicely. Can't wait to see it with the decking. 
We have a 3hp Pentair variable and it dropped our electric bill by $100/month when we switched. Also went with a Aquabot instead of the Polaris sweep that helped reduce the e-bill.

Day 1 2014. We're thawed out and putting the pool house basement in. This will house all the pool equipment in a nice dry, quiet, out of sight area and give me some great seasonal storage of pool stuff.

Doobs, its progressing but going slowly. The foundation and septic inspections delayed us a bit due to a last minute septic engineering request. I am going to update one large post after the building is completely up, but before patio work starts. Probably 2 weeks away.
Just curious what the dimensions are on the "open" area part? We are thing of adding a roof and back wall to our existing shed that would look similar to this - really like the bar area! Thanks!
