Dont' know who to believe???

Finally getting plaster on Monday(yahoo). But my PB says I can swim on Tuesday. Everything I have read on this site says 2 weeks minimum. Its suppose to be 110 degrees next week, so I'm getting flax from the wife an kids. My pool is built by presidential and were getting the upgraded finish :confused to premium plus.

Does anyone know what this is?
do we have to wait 2 weeks it get in??

I don't want to ruin the finish
any advice would help.

The city water coming out of the hose is 85 degrees, would this help cure the plaster faster?

hm, we were told not to step on the surface while it filled because your skin oils could cause a permanent mark on the surface, but once it's full, it was fine.
Just get your PB to put the timeline in writing, if there's an issue down the road you're covered.

that's what they said, once it full on Monday, they come back Tuesday morning to add chemicals. Then dive in.

This is against every thread I have read at this site.

Hello! You've probably already see this as well, but just in case ......Pool School - Start-up New Plaster

Still as long as you have everything in writing, then they would be liable I suppose.

 

[oldski]

yes I saw that and many others too, my confusion.

Well, just about everything we post says to follow your pool builders recommendations to keep your warranty valid. If he tells you to swim and is willing to back it, you are going to have difficulty keeping ip the family out.

The family is driving me nuts, and with next weeks temps ranging from 108 to 111, well you know its impossible.

But it's a dry heat! Bwaahaaaa! I can say that originally being from Vegas and having been stationed at Luke for 6 years, I know.

LOL !!!!

Do you have to agree to accept their chemicals? They might not be what TFP would recommend.

I don't have much choice, I will be out of town on Tuesday, and the wife and kids don't know anything. It be ok till Wednesday when I get home.
