I'm in the middle of getting quotes to renovate our 30 year old pool, replaster, new tile, coping... the works. But as our equipment is all 15+ years old that have given us headaches over the recent years, we figure it's time to bite the bullet and replace it all. We just want a reliable, smoothly running beautiful pool. I've been spec-ing out what I think should be what I need.
I'm located in Northern California, in-ground pool is ~20,000 gallons with a raised spa w/ spillway. Currently have a DE filter, but looking to move to cartridge to avoid the messiness of cleaning and recharging it.
Here's what I've put together:
I'm not very pool savvy, I just basically manage the chem levels and regular cleaning/maintenance. I don't know much more beyond that, so any feedback on if this seems like an appropriate setup and/or other things to consider before we undertake the project would be greatly appreciated!
