Fiberglass Weirdness?

[jason.jammer]

Hello Everyone- Please see the attached photos and let me know your thoughts. The missing chips are coming out on the vertical wall of my spa spillover and the discoloration is happening on the inside spa wall. It's soft when I push and bumpy. Not really sure what's going on? I have a call into my pool builder and Latham.

Appears to be a gelcoat issue. Perhaps something during the manufacture or application process. Make sure to have your test records/history available as I'm sure they will ask for it. Curious to hear what your installer or Latham have to say about it.

Just got off the phone with Latham and they confirmed a gel coat issue. They are repairing with no questions asked.

I'm glad this is under warranty. Just a bit stressed on having to drain the spa, deal with dust, debris ect... Then having to add 400+ gallons of new water into the pool. Balancing is no worries. Just the repair process.

Am I over stressing?

Yes. Be happy that the company is standing behind its product and fixing it quickly. You have no idea how many people deal with builders and manufacturers that drag their feet to most times do nothing!!

Let them fix it and you’ll be back on track in no time.

400 gallons? That's nothing. Just wait till you have to drain and fill your entire pool (20,000 gallons)!
