We are getting close to signing a contract for our first pool in Austin, TX. We've met with three PBs and are leaning towards the specs provided below.
We've also considered adding a small spa, but as you can see we do not have much space and unfortunately there is no natural gas in our area.
I've been lurking on this forum for a while and have found the advice immensely valuable! Please share feedback
