Hello all. Thanks for this forum. I decided to join to share my experience along the way. Also to get some feedback.
Thank you.
I had a 40x20, Gunite Pool prior. It was older and had cracks, bought the house with it. It did not have a heater nor a spa. We decided it was time to demo it and center it with our house.
We are building a 55x25 pool with a 9x12 raised spa. 10 ft sun ledge, stadium seating, and a swim out bench the full length of the deep end.
The 9x12 spa is raised 18" and flows into the main pool, so need to make sure I have a pump that can push the flow the full 12 feet over.
As of now we demoed out the old pool and dug out the new pool. We are up to doing the rough plumbing and just passed the rebar inspection today.
I am just torn between Jandy and Pentair. This is also my equipment list based on my setup I was thinking out. Any insight would be amazing. How is the automation?
Please let me know any feedback you think?
Thank you.
