For anybody with a deeper tanning ledge (9-12” of water), could I please see pics of how you addressed stairs? Like one small step down to tanning ledge level and then rest of steps?

Hello - I have a 20k gallon Latham synergy pool with spillover tanning ledge. When the pool is running without water being sent to the tanning ledge (valve is closed), I am not experiencing any water loss other than evaporation (.25 inch per day) However, when I open the tanning ledge valve and...

Hi all! We are trying to finish up our pool design.... and cannot decide on the tanning ledge size... for those of you that have a tanning ledge- Do you have any regrets? Too big? Too small? Shouldn’t have done at all? I am considering 3 options (pictures below). Option 1- Half tanning ledge...
