New Pool Build - Nashville suburbs

We've had a very productive past 2wks. The pool is up and running, fence is complete, and we've already gone swimming 3-4 times! :goodjob:

Here's some pictures of things that were recently completed.

Two guys did the floor work. They worked a solid 12hr day.

A day or 2 later our PB sent his guys out to install the liner

Equipment pad - valve on the bottom left goes to the deck jets. The next three valves (in order) are from skimmer1, main drains, skimmer2

A few more pix

12mil solar cover arrived in the mail so we decided to fire up the heater. With night time temps in the high 40s we were only seeing a 2-3° temperature drop overnight. We only heated on Tuesday but by Friday the lowest temp observed all week was 79°. The cover works! Still need to do the final trimming around the edges but we're waiting for the sun to bake out some of the wrinkles. Setup the deck chairs.

Outstanding items:
Sod
Assorted plants and shrubs to tone down the whiteness of the fence
Pool school
seal the pavilion - darn carpenter bees have already launched the first salvo.
seal the deck - I'm leaning toward water-based clear satin sealer but I need to do more research.
Short punch list for the PB
