The first step is to know what your local building, fencing, and barrier code requirements are.
The installation begins when all sod and vegetation is dug up from the area beneath the pool.
Some municipalities require up to 6' of clear area cut all the way around the pool.
Leveling
Once sod is removed, the higher ground must always be brought
down to match the height of the lowest grade level within the un-sod area. The only exception which would allow for a lower area
to be raised up is if you supply a method for retaining the build up of the loose fill and properly compact the fill areas with machinery.
Hand tamping of raised fill areas will not be sufficient to prevent settling of the pool frame due to the tons of water soon to be on
the area. At your expense and discretion, use of a dense, heavy, drainable, and compactable material (such as crushed stone or stone
dust) can be used as a sub-base fill in these situations where ground conditions warrant its use. It must be retained around the perimeter,
either by using the excavated sod material as a berm mound or with retainer wall structures, also at your expense and discretion. Due to
the extreme weight of the water on the ground, there exists an outward reaching pressure dispersal "cone" or "pyramid" that extends downward
through the ground which provides the needed support for the immense weight of the water above the ground. This weight is dispersed at
approximately 45 degree angles from the sides of the pool wall structure downward and into the adjacent soil below. Too sharp a drop off
when building up a low area will result in that side giving way to the pressure being exerted on it. The pool will settle or sink noticeably
to that side of the installation over time. The minimum safe distance away from the pool wall you need to be in order to adequately retain
the raised fill is dependent upon the height of the fill and its composition, the type of material used as fill, and the slope of the ground
adjacent to the pool site and raised area. All of these things make it difficult to recommend the action of raising a site rather
than digging it out. |
Maintaining Water Quality
You will occasionally run into problems, even with good maintenance of your pool or spa.
If you have a loss of grouting in tiled pools or spas, it's caused by soft water that has low calcium levels and sometimes dissolves
calcium in grouting. Regrout the pool and test the calcium levels in the water. If it's lower than 250 ppm, add calcium chloride.
If you have slippery surfaces, use a brush on the area to remove as much algae as
possible, then super chlorinate. You may need an algaecide to prevent recurrence. If your pump runs but doesn't pump, shut it off before
it burns out. Check the water level and add more water if needed. Check the filter and clean or replace it. If the pump still doesn't
work, call a technician to check for impeller damage or air leaks.
If you see cloudy
or milky water, it's from residue from suntan lotion or other oils. Clean the skimmer baskets and filter, and operate the pump for a
longer time. Super chlorinate the pool, then add a clarifier, which causes suspended particles to settle.
If you have cloudy, greenish water,
super chlorinate the water with chlorine - to 10 ppm if the water is only slightly green and to 25 ppm if water is solid green. Brush
interior walls to remove algae, and clean filter to remove dead algae.
If you have rust-colored water, replace any metal fittings with copper or plastic piping. Contact your pool installer to find out how
to drain or dilute the rust-colored water safely. Remove any rust stains with a tile-and-liner cleaner. Make sure the fresh water you
add is properly balanced. If you notice eye or throat irritation, test and correct the pH. To lower it, add dry acid daily according to
packaging instructions until you get the right pH reading. To raise pH, add soda ash in the same way. If peoples' blond or tinted hair
turns green, check the pH and raise it if needed. If too much algaecide has been added, add more water to bring the pool or spa into
balance. Routine maintenance is the best defense against problems with water quality.
