Hello folks, We are in the process of starting a new pool build and just broke ground excavating yesterday.
After talking to a few different plumbers regarding the plumbing for the pool, it appears there might be a few different ways to skin a cat, however, I am looking at plumbing in a fashion that furnishes maximum efficiency.
Here are some basic details of pool:
Rectangular shape, Size 14x36 with a 5x10 offset cabo shelf. Shallow end depth 3’6”, deep end 5’. Volume 16,000 gallons. Pool will be situated away from trees or tall vegetation. I’ve owned a pool before which ran pentair equipment without any problems so I am leaning towards pentair equipment again. I am also a fan of sand filters. The pool will not be heated. The equipment pad will be located 10 feet from the corner of the deep end.
I am wondering if anyone could make recommendations on the amount of skimmers, return eyes, pipe diameter, and pump size needed.
Thank you very much for any advice. @mas985
