DONE
I offer you a before and after shot of the pool project. We are mostly done. The plaster is cured and the filters are being cleaned of it as I type. That means we can turn on the solar to heat it up from its present 60 degrees to a pleasant high 70s or even 80. The salt needs to be added for the saline system to be reignited now that the plaster dust is clear. Done. Sigh. Whew.
I know. It doesn't look any different than it did before. John says we have a knack for spending a lot of money for something you cannot see. In this case you can see it if you are up close. A new colored concrete border with continuous drainage slots all around, auto fill, auto cleaning, a new better inlet system (three nozzles place to stir it all up) and bottom filling when we are heating with the solar to drive the warm water up and through the mass. There is all new tile on the side of the spa, both in and out. And so on.
How boring. But we spent all this money and you can't see any of it so I have to tell.................enough.
