Just met with the plaster company. They are planning to start this Thursday and finish up by next Friday. Keep the fingers crossed hope to have water in her by next weekend.
In my experience, a solid cover greatly reduces the chance of a green pool at opening and makes spring cleanup much easier.I need a little advice. What type of cover should I get for the pool. I do not like the idea of allowing water to move through the cover as I am concerned about freeze thaw issues, but the pool engineer I spoke with during the early stages of this build said to blow my lines out and then keep the water level at its normal level. If I get a cover that does not allow water to pass through I guess I would use a pump that automatically cycles when the cover gets water on it. So the question is - water to pass through or solid cover? Any advice on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
FANTASTIC!!!!***I just checked my first post of June 2nd, so I am one day off.*** I feel as if this is a long time coming. I believe I dug up the old pool on June 3rd of 2020. So exactly 11 months to the date as I recall I have a pool with water in it and the filter running. I laid sod on 2 of the sides Saturday. I still need to renovate the pool house which will require heavy equipment on the lower side of the pool hence the dirt pathway. I am happy to say that I can now join the ranks of others on TFP and add my equipment list and pool specs.
One of the photos is named pool empty but I’m sure when I zoom in I can see some sort of animal moving about holding a long pole. You might need to SLAM just in case he’s shedding nasty stuff to the water.***I just checked my first post of June 2nd, so I am one day off.*** I feel as if this is a long time coming.
