We have plaster in the pool and water is pouring in. Other than getting a late start to the day, everything went perfect. We were taken a back by the nasty gray color of the plaster as it sprayed out the hose but were assured that after an acid bath and a bit of scrubbing twice a day for three day that the true colors would come out. Lets hope so.
The pool and spa started filling at 2:00 PM... one hose in each. At 4:30 the 500 gallon spa was full so that hose was then put into the pool along with the other hose. At 1000 gallons (2 hoses pumping 500 gallons of water every 2.5 hours) every 2.5 hours I figure the pool should be filled at around 10:00PM Tuesday night. It'll be interesting to see how far my calculations are off.
After the pool is full Kirk, from FTW Custom comes and dumps 16 gallons of Muratic acid into the water. The 2-a-day stirrings start. After 3 days of that Kirk comes back out and fires off the equipment and we start cleaning the water. Once the water gets clear it's time to go for a bunch of swims. WHOO-HOO!!!!!!
It'll be nice to have my backyard back again.
