Hello everyone and thanks for the valuable information on here, I have learned a lot in the past week with some good responses on another post I made. We just signed the contract for a freeform gunite pool and here are the specs I am thinking about going with. Please chime in on what you think and let me know if this is something I will be happy with. I am located just outside of Boston, pool season maybe 5 months.
Pool: Gunite 21 x 36 freefrom, 4' to 7'6" with Spa 7' 6" round 18" above pool
Pool House: 22 x 24 (pool equipment behind pool house covered but not enclosed)
Pebble Tech: Midnight Blue
Pump: Pentair IntelliFlo VSF
Filter: Pentair Clean and Clear Plus Cartridge
Heater: Pentair Mastertemp 400k btu
Chlorine: Pentair IntelliChlor I40 or I60 (whatever size is recommended)
Automation: Pentair Intellicenter
Cleaning: Originally I was going to go with IFCS, but axed it and going with high end robot
Lighting: 2 Intellibrite 5G LED colored in the pool and 1 in Spa with Intellibrite Controller
Pentair Magic Stream Laminars: 4 around pool
Pentair Magic Stream Magic Bowl: 2 elevated on column
Pentair Landscape Lighting LED colored (qty 6)
Couple questions:
Should I have a separate pump for the Magic Stream Laminars and Bowls?
Will the Intellicenter be able to control all of these features?
I am adding landscape speakers, can this be tied into Intellicenter App on phone or iPad?
Is there anything else you recommend for this pool build?
Appreciate any input you have and look forward to your responses.
