| A two speed or variable speed pump are suggested. You don't need 2 HP for normal circulation. It just burns to much electricity. If you want the fountain and the spa on at the same time, get another pump and drain set added for the fountain. Bump the controller to an RS-8. If you go to a two speed pump, you will have exceeded the RS-4's relays. I also encourage using LEDs, wired so the spa and pool may be used separately. Will this raise the price? Yes but it will increase your flexibility too. Scott |

| Thanks! Will inquire about these. |

| Bumdaddy - Fellow Dallasonian here. You're pool requirements are very similar to ours and we're being priced WAY above $40K - Who is that bid from? Thanks! |

| I would add another light to the pool as well. If it's 30' long, you may find that only one light leaves some dark areas. I agree with PoolguyNJ on everything else. |

| Thanks! Per PoolguyNJ we upgraded to a 2 speed pump. We also changed to a SWCG and switched from OK flagstone to Tenn Flagstone to hopefully help avoid some of the corrosion that I had read about here. Please take a look at the 3d rendering. We don't have a ton of yard and we wanted to keep as much grass as we could, so we are using the existing patio and step stones. With the spa inside the pool area, should I extend the length of the pool a few feet? Meeting with the PB on Thursday to sign off on the rest and pick a date to break ground. Any other bells or whistles you would recommend? Link to youtube pool render http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_LcLcYW3JU
