Do you have to remove concrete from inground pool to fill in?
Yes, you typically need to remove the concrete from an inground pool to fill it in properly. This ensures that the area can be filled with appropriate materials that will compact well and prevent future settling or sinking. Additionally, removing the concrete helps avoid potential drainage issues and allows for better soil management. However, in some cases, it might be possible to leave the concrete in place, depending on local regulations and the specific fill method used.

What does an inground pool plumbing diagram typically include?
An inground pool plumbing diagram typically includes the layout of pipes, valves, filters, pumps, and other equipment used to circulate water in the pool. It shows how water flows through the system to keep the pool clean and properly maintained.
You have an inground pool using a salt generator system and having a stainless steel ladder with aluminum sockets in the concrete deck What can you do to control galvanic corrosion?
Corrosion cannot be controlled. Pool installer should have used brass sockets, will not corrode. For cost of about $10 less a socket, replacement will cost hundreds to remove pavers, break concrete and reset in brass. Went through the same disaster with my pool

Can an in ground pool slide be used for an above ground pool?
Generally...no. In simplest terms, an above ground pool pump is a flooded suction pump, which means the water level must be higher than the pump for it to operate, and an inground pump has the ability to draw water up from a level lower than the pump. The engineering and structure of these two different types of pumps is what makes them work the way they do. This means that, in a typical installation, you could use an inground-specific pump on an above ground pool, but not an above ground pump on an inground pool with the water level below the pump.
