Need help picking a Slide

[TheSadClown]

Hello,

Which of these slides would you choose if you were going to get one. I cannot decide on which one to get

How old are your kids or grandkids or this for big kids?

 

[kjdiver]

Tough decision...just get both and connect them...winning!

Just wondering how much they cost

The helix2 seems to be in the area of $3200

The first slide is a faster slide and you launch further. The second is bigger and I think funnier but not as fast. And it costs more too. Regardless you need a water connection for either otherwise they aren't great. Hopefully you have one nearby or are building new and knew about the water feed

Is there anyway to tie into my return line for this?

You can dig up a return and T into it. You can run a flex line from pool return to slide. You can run a water line from the yard like a hose bib. Depends how your pool area is laid out

My goal is to run a Y diverter and then put a automated valve so when no one is using the slide I just have it set to off. Im planning on having it set as a feature on my easytouch

 

[jimmythegreek]

That's the best way if u have the setup available. automate it with a power diverter and use a command to open and close from the panel as your thinking

Also check with your home insurer. When we built our pool we were informed our home owners insurance would be cancelled if we installed a diving board or slide.
