This RU-vid channel is a resource for pool professionals, pool owners and pool builders, created by a pool plumber and based on my real world experience in the field. Here we will post content and tutorials relating to construction and pool operation with focus on common procedures and problems. I hope you learn something here and enjoy.
love the matching pipe color, nice touch. Why not run your main drain separately to the pump? I am completely new to pools but having one built, just curious. I would think it would be nice to pull water from the bottom to help circulation.
Amazing video! I'm having a pool built right now. They have installed a Hartford loop, but there is only 1/2" to T.O.C. What do you do to correct for this?
Hey Max, We've got an inground concrete pool and spa with two pumps - one for the pool and one for the spa. Our pool holds 30,000 gallons. We've stopped using the spa and the heater altogether. The issue is with the water, as it still runs through the spa and heater even though they're not in use. What can be a solution for this problem? Is it possible to have a plumber come out and replumb everything without digging or filling in the spa for this summer?
This guy is awesome-so great to see a dedicated smart technician that knows his trade-would love to have him come work at our company-where are you guys located?
Very useful. I only very rarely work on spas (not so common in Spain), and most of the times when this kind of problems arise I don't really know how to approach it. Thank you.
Best video about pool plumbing. But why no more videos 😢? I would like to learn something about the air blower installation.... That would be super... Thanks man
Wow, this build is beautiful! I'm only wondering how come you didn't step up into commercial heaters? And larger pumps with larger plumbing? But I can't hate at all because I build pools, and I can see the craftsmanship is on point.
what kinda paint? I live in the Coachella desert of CA and the pvc sometimes looks like someone took a torch to the pvc burnt looking that pritty cool if thier is a protective paint?
Need your expertise please. We are in the process of building a stand alone built in spa. Approximately 9x7. Pool builder is telling me I need 2 pumps because I want 2 levels for the jets, initially he said because I had too many / 11, I said reduce to 8: apparently now because of the 2 levels. Does that sound right? 4th time building pool/spa -we had 2because of the combo, doesn’t sound right and I think they are trying to gouge me
Great detail! Have you seen where only one jet (2nd furthest from equip) stopped theropy, rather is slightly sucking water? Trying to troubleshoot and looking for guidance. Thanks
I have a spa connected to my pool with 6 jets but when I turn the spa on only 3 jets are working. When I turn on the blower all 6 jets are blowing air. To me, seems like I have a clog that doesn't allow the water to the other 3 jets. If that's the case how can I unclog to allow all 6 jets to work? (BTW I put my hand over the non-working jets and it seems like its sucking air in) I appreciate any feedback. This video taught me how everything is set up. Thank you!
