Backstory:
Hello everyone, I built a pool in west Texas approx 7 years ago and chronicled that headache on this forum, met some great people, and really enjoyed my time here. As life happened around me I became less active here...well life has improved as we made a brilliant decision to move to the Texas coast. I’m using my phone to post this so please forgive grammatical and punctuation errors.
Pool number 2 for us is ramping up with the addition of dirt....not the typical starting place, but the lot next to our home is lower than our home lot by approx 3 ft. To prevent every rainstorm from flooding my pool I decided to raise the pool as well. This will give us a small safety net And allow for some elevation change in the yard.
much more to come. I’m going to have to find a new hosting site for the pics.Looks like photobucket no longer wants to give me free hosting
This pool will have a spa, swim up bar with outdoor kitchen of sorts, depth will be limited. I’m undecided on that 5-6ft being most likely.
plaster will either be pebble or quartz, undecided.
Automation and equipment will be Pentair.
chlorination you’re be Salt chlorine generation. Heat will have to be propane. That’s going to be special.Unless electric has become good?
