After maintaining 2 commercial pools for several years and having our own softsided pool for 6 years, I am planning on putting in a large oval OG spring 2015 (at least a 18x33). Living up here in The Nation's Icebox I'm thinking of installing the pump and filter on our basement next to our sump hole. I would keep our NG heater poolside.
So my question is what are the disadvantages to doing this and is there any equipment changes I'd need to make to the standard AG pool packages because of being below the pool (the pump and filter would be 4 ft bellow grade and about 20 feet from the pool).
