Hello, this is my first post so I have to say thanks for all of the wisdom we have found on these forums! It has been invaluable as we will be first-time pool owners.
Here is what we're looking at for our pool in Austin, Texas:
Perimeter: 86’ ft.
Area: 350 Sq Ft.
Depth: 4’ – 5’ – 4’
Capacity: Approximately 11000 gallons
WetEdge Satin Matrix Pebble
6" Baby Pool area with 18" deep middle
Bubbler in the Baby Pool Area
12 ft of 18†– 24†high custom rock water wall
6†Frost proof water line tile
Limestone coping
10 ft long area that has an extra foot of coping overhang to create a bar area on lower patio
Two Color LED Lights by Hayward
1/2†Rebar is in the bond beam
3/8†Rebar tied on 10†Centers with a four bar beam and additional bars at all high stress areas if required
2HP Jandy E Pump
460 sq. ft. Jandy Cartridge filter
Jandy Aqualink PDA 4 Remote, and a mounted control box by equipment
Nature 2 Fusion Inground by Zodiac (should replace with Liquidator?)
Manual fill (will probably make this automatic)
Polaris 9300 Sport
3 Returns - 1 ½†schedule 40 PVC.
Two Pool Main Drains with Anti Vortex Covers. 2†schedule 40 PVC
1 skimmer
580 sq ft of flagstone Stone Patio
Built over 4" concrete
3/8†Rebar on 12†centers
Does everything look sound here? Namely...
1. Are the structural and plumbing specifications up to snuff?
2. I'm thinking we should get 1 more skimmer and 2-3 more returns for the amount of surface area we will have. Does that make sense?
3. Will a Jandy 2HP ePump be able to adequately handle the bubbler, waterfall, and pool pumping?
Thanks so much for all your help!
