Grew up with a pool and helped take care of it but now own one for myself. Little background: House was a vacation rental previously. Hayward DE system filter. Was running as a salt system but it seems like once the cell and board went bad they were just putting chlorine in the skimmer. Wiring is bad on pumps- just plugs not in conduit. Audible arc when turning system on.
I am thinking of replacing everything and just starting fresh. Looking at going with Sand filter, and Jacuzzi salt system and Jacuzzi variable speed pump. If I replace everything wiring will be redone and Leslie's is running an install promotion that saves me money there.
So here are my questions.
1) Seeing that much of the work was shoddy / used to get the pool through last vacation season as I best in tearing down and starting over, especially since I have to replace most of the components?
2) Looking at prices it seems that I will save some money using Jacuzzi over Hayward. Any concern using a "lesser" known brand?
Thanks for the time and glad to have found the site.
