The saga begins...BYOP build in Gilbert, AZ
- Thread starter uberoval
- Start date
Waterline / dam wall tile guys should be here Thursday or Friday so the coping guys are kickin' some butt...
Looking Good! How Has the build been? I Just got my design form Bill at byop yesterday. Starting to get Excited!
So far it hasn't been as bad as I had dreaded as BYOP was great and Todd there has been very prompt in answering my questions.
The pool season is in full effect right now so all the subs are crazy busy and the longest out was the Pebbletec at 2-3 weeks. I believe the date they are coming is May 17th. Today I came home to watch
the Gas guy hook up a high-flow meter and the spa line and he said he is doing 5-6 hookups a day.
BY FAR the best experience so far is dealing with the Town of Gilbert inspector! Jason has done all the inspections with a simple email and is a wealth of info in some the steps of this build I wasn't clear on. Note: keep
a copy of all your plans and drawings in the house breaker box, something no one told me before all of this started.

Yes it does! Starting to get very exciting now as the initial drawing is coming to life!
I received the test kit and all the brushes and stuff last week and tonight I will start trying to figure out how to install the Screenlogic hardware.
So Pebble gets installed later this morning (stoked!) and we made sure the surface was free of all the concrete chunks after the cleaning guy came and set the head heights on Friday. We vacuumed all the nooks
and crannies which might be a tad overkill.
I still have to install the skimmer top lid assy as it looks kinda easy. The water-filler has to be assembled too and its hidden under some pavers so that should be fun. He is the finished spa area and hopefully everything
goes according to plan in a few hours.
I installed the Screenlogic over the weekend but still at a total loss on how to program any circuits or functions. I attached the Spa Blower and installed the 2 autovalves where they are supposed to go and that is about it. The
dude who maintains the neighbors pool is stopping by on Wednesday/Thursday to help me get the initial water chemistry right in case i get stuck at work at can't get home.
Should I start a thread in the pumps/automation thread on asking for some advice?
I can't even decide on how to label the functions lol and i am pretty decent with tech stuff.
Here is what i have:
Pool filter pump/in-floor cleaning
Spa w spillway
2 LED bubblers in baja shelf
LED pool light
LED spa light
LED bubbler lights
How do people know what to set the pump RPM at and for how long and when?
