We are having our pool re-plastered soon. We currently have a Caretaker system which doesn't work well anymore due to plaster build-up around each head. We use a robotic cleaner anyway and I would like to remove the pop-up heads for aesthetics and less maintenance.
One of the companies said they have removed this system in the past by plugging them with rubber inserts, applying concrete followed by plaster. Another company said they do this too, but that they think we would need another return added to the pool if we did this. We currently have 2 returns.
Is there a way to calculate if the 2 returns would be sufficient? Has anyone else had this system removed during a renovation?
