Hey all, new to the forum, and had some questions.
We currently have an above ground pool that we're tearing down and having a 13x27' in ground put in its place. We've gotten a quote from a local builder to do the entire backyard plus some additional things we need done inside the house. We put our deposit down this week and are excited to break ground next month. Here are the specs that we were quoted on:
My initial though was get the following products:
My thought here is, I really only need 1 pump. I can place the valve actuator on the outlet side of the system, one direction feeding back into the pool, the other feeding the water feature. Omnihub should allow me to choose which path (or both, to an extent) I want to send the flow to. I do not really see many situations where I would be running both.
Does this sound like a good, cost-effective way to reach the level of automation I'm talking about? Is there a better solution that will save me money without sacrificing quality? Do I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about, and is this the dumbest thing you've ever seen?
I'm waiting to get numbers back from my contractor on this to see how much cost its going to add.
Thanks in advance.
