Pool Renovation in Boylston
June 23, 2004
3 days work into the project and the pool is starting to look better and better. Inside of this pool, two skimmer boxes were placed in the deep end of the pool. The reasoning for this was to have the wind hit the house and then reflect back to the pool and that will send any leaves or debris in the water towards the skimmers. The skimmers that were placed in this pool were two of the largest skimmers that are available. Foam was placed all around where the skimmers hit the cement to make sure that if the cement should ever expand, the skimmers will never get cracked, and they will remain in perfect shape for the life of your pool.
The Bare cement in the pool has been painted so that it will be fully ready for when it is going to be covered in fiberglass.
After the sides of the pool have been painted the lines in the sides of the pools were connected with flex pipe and sent all the way out to the filter, which is 100 feet away. Once the pipes are properly connected, they are then buried in sand. The reason that they are buried in the sand is that the sand allows the pipes to have some room in the winter time for when they expand. Underwater Pool Masters does this to make sure that your pool will have a long lasting life and that you will never have to deal with a crack in the lines.
After all of the holes in the cement are completely patched, the inside of the pool is then power-washed to make sure that any dirt or debris is cleaned from within the pool for when the fiberglass is placed on top of the surfaces.
More coming soon!!
