We are in the process of possibly being the OB of an inground pool. Plans are for a 20x40 rectangle, vinyl lined, 48" steel wall pool with polymer walk in steps. Sport pool bottom: water depth on walk in side will be 3'6", then 5'4" water depth in the middle, and then to a 48" water depth on the other side. We have a large, 1 acre lot and super easy access for heavy equipment off the back end of our house. We GC'd our home build in 2003 and also a home edition in '11, so we have quite a bit of experience handling subs, etc.. Planning on hiring the excavation, electrical, and concrete work and doing the rest ourselves. Here is some of our equipment that we have selected so far:
48" steel walls
Heavy Duty adjustable A frame braces
deck support braces
rounded bullnose coping
8' straight back step for 48" walls
Hayward Tristar VS900 pump
Hayward ProSeries Plus side mount sand filter, 31"
Hayward OmniLogic salt cell
2-Hayward Universal 12v color logic LED lights w/ niche
Hayward universal H series 300k btu natural gas heater
28mil GLI Sedona liner
3 skimmers
4 returns
2 main drains
4 deck jets
Pentair Warrior SE pool robot (Dolphin S200)
GLI ProMesh safety cover
We've received several bids from PBs, and have firm prices from several subs. We are trying to determine what our time is worth going this route. Prices in this area are somewhat expensive and pool builders have reputations for being sloooooow. We would love any feedback!
