I have etching in my inground concrette pool and i need to know how to fix it. the pool was made in 1973 i bought the house three years ago.
The cost to install a pool and spa will depend on a number of different factors such as size, type, and location. An above ground pool will cost $2500 to $4500 with an installation cost of $1000 to $3000. A concrete pool can cost $20,000 to $45,000. Spas can cost between $4000 to $10,000.
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
Yes, but make sure the ground has settled.
It is illegal to fill-in a swimming pool because there may have been lead based paint used on it. Lead based paint is a known carcinogen and there is danger that it could leech into the water supply. Environmental Protection Agency fine for not removing concrete or gunite is $25,000.
There are three important construction methods for a swimming pool: concrete, vinyl liner and fiberglass. The most used construnction method for a swimming pool is concrete.
Vermiculite is not a suitable substrate.
Add acid, Muriatic acid works best but Dry Acid is also used.
Liquid chlorine provides a simple solution for maintaining a clean swimming pool.
Another new or used retainer.
There are several types of trowels used in concrete construction, including finishing trowels, pointing trowels, margin trowels, edging trowels, and grooving trowels. Each type serves a specific purpose in concrete work, such as finishing, smoothing, shaping edges, and creating joints. Finishing trowels are the most commonly used for smoothing and leveling the surface of concrete.
Swimming pool decks can be made out of three materials. These include wood, composite wood and concrete. If your design is great, either of these materials can make your pool look amazing. The type of wood most commonly used are treated pine, cedar and redwood.
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.
