Hi TFP community,
In March/April timeframe, of 2015, I will be having a Caribbean Viking fiberglass pool built in my backyard. Initially, I will not have water features but will plumb for future water falls just in case. Just wanted to get your opinions and tap into your expertise on if what my builder and I are planning to do seems like an over-kill, just right, or lacking.
Pool and Equipment:
The Pool:
Caribbean Viking pool (16 x 40)
Depth: from 3’-6” to 6’-6”
Gallons: 17,000 gallons
Water surface area: 468 sq.ft.
Perimeter: 96ft.
The filter:
Pro-grid DE filter 48 sq.ft.
Multiport valve (I have no idea which one to get of the following???)
- Selecta-Flo™ Valve 2” SKT: (SP0740DE)
- Vari-Flo™ Valve 1 ½” NPT: (SP0710XR50)
- Vari-Flo™ Valve 2” NPT: (SP0715XR50)
- Slide Valve 2” SKT: (33 SP0410X5025)
Separation tank: (C9002SEP) - to hold the spent DE material when backwashing
The Pump:
Hayward Ecostar
Speed range: 600-3450 RPM
Lights:
PAL Lighting (http://pallightingusa.com/)
LED's: Three TREO 2T4 LED's (42-2T454LAU)
Driver: PCR-4U Receiver / Driver with PCT-1 hand held transmitter & fitted w/- PCW-1 Wi-Fi (42-PCR-4UW)
Perimeter lighting: 96 feet roll of PAL-LED Optic RGB flexible extruded IP68 strip Light fitted with 79' of supply cable and a wall fitting (42-PLO-P-RGB)
Driver: PCR-200 Receiver/Driver with PCT-1 hand held transmitter & fitted with PCW-1 Wi-Fi module (42-PCR-200UW)
Junction box: (57-330-5027)<--- do i need this???
SWG and Automation: (this is where I am a little confused)
I will either go with the Omnilogic or the Prologic from Hayward.
Prologic:
Main unit (PL-P-4)
Plumbing kit (P-kit)
Salt generator (T-cell 15)
Home Networking (Homenet)
PH,ORP,SENSE,ORP DISPENSE (Aql-Chem)
MURIATIC ACID FEED SYSTEM (Aql-Chem3)
Remote wireless base (RF base)
Omnilogic:
Main unit (HLbase)
Dual Protocol Sense and Dispense (HLchem)
Salt generator (T-cell 15)
Plumbing kit (P-kit)
Home Network Device (HLhomenet)
MURIATIC ACID FEED SYSTEM (AQLchem3)
Cleaner:
AquaNaut 400
Did I miss anything? Am I on the right track? Am I over-killing this pool build?
Comments, concerns, criticism, thoughts, recommendations, ...etc, would be greatly appreciated!!!! Thx in advance!
