Hello everyone,
Newbie from Toronto, Canada. I signed our contract a month ago with a current install date of July 2021. Details and questions below.
POOL

- Dimensions: 15'6" width, 30’ length, 5'11 depth, 4’ shallow end
- Colour: Sapphire Blue
EQUIPMENT
- Filter: Jandy 340 cartridge filter
- Heater: Jandy JXI power vented 260,000 BTU digital heater
- Pump:Jandy VS Flooro 1.65 HP variable-speed pump (upgraded from 1.0HP pump)
- Jandy True Clear SWG system
- Lights: PAL LED, 2 included ($550 each additional)
- Concrete 3’x 7’ concrete pad for pool equipment
- Manual maintenance kit = telescopic pole, net, skimmer.
ADDITIONAL, INCLUDED
- Excavation and disposal of soil
- 40 ton crane
- One foot concrete collar and one foot Techo Bloc Bullnose coping
- 20 - 30' of trenching
- Tarp and bags for closing
- One free opening and one free closing
- Water for pool, 2 loads ($800.00 value)
NOT INCLUDED
- Permit costs
- Gas and Electrical connection (Approx. $2,000.00 each)
- All patio stones beyond coping (Techo Bloc Blu 60mm = $25/sq ft)
- Small Machinery, if needed
1. Considering a hot tub for later on. Should I ask them to setup the concrete pad, along with electrical and plumbing?
2. Do you think the sapphire blue would be too dark for night time swimming?
3. How many lights should we go with? 3 or 4?
4. Are pool slides worth the $3K-5K cost? I’m considering the SR Smith turbo twister for our children, ages 9 and 11.
5. We are planning on having the pool running vertically with our side fence (left side of attached picture). 4’ clearance by-law requirement would filled with plants like hostas and day lillies, then 4’ of pavers/stone, the pool, 4’ pavers/stone, then grass. ? Does anyone else have grass that close or closer? Is it a pain keeping the pool clean.
6. We have a huge wooden deck already so, I’m thinking 10’ pavers/stone at both width ends of the pool for loungers and an umbrella. Would that be wide enough for loungers and clearance to walk?
Thanks in advance! This site has already been very helpful.
