Hello all, we're just starting the process of installing a new pool. We live near Tucson, Arizona, and would appreciate any advice. We would like a pool basically for relaxing and entertaining grandkids (ages toddler up to teenager).
We're thinking about 15x30 with a baja shelf for the little guys. Probably would like it no more than 5 feet deep, with the deepest part in the middle, so it could be set up for volleyball or basketball. We probably want a pool cover. I'm leaning toward SWG. Not sure about decking. Not sure about lights, water features, etc. We don't have an unlimited budget but since this will be a major part of our home, I don't want to cheap out either -- I don't want to wince when I look at it, or have regrets that I missed something important.
Just about everything else is still up in the air. I'd love to talk to knowledgeable folks who can help me decide!
