    The unit heats up fast and is super quiet. It looks fancy czcams.com/users/postUgkxl8Od2BvnGbn1ffwqsuFXW0QnmcZgMiVY and can be kept in the living room. It gets hot within a split second of turning on the unit. The build quality is exceptionally good and is safe to be around kids and pets. This one is super quiet and can be kept on while in office meetings, my wife loved it. It shows the temperature right on the unit which is very useful and adding a rotating feature helps to heat up the surrounding, so other people will not fight with you for heat. It is right as described in the description..!! Definitely recommend!!

    As a first-time pool owner, I thank you for your content. I was thinking of installing a fountain, I like the product you installed, but like you said, the kids will either play with it or hit it while playing. If only they designed it to install on the outside. It will sell very quickly. Thanks again

      It definitely made me a little nervous when the kids get in the pool with it but they did OK. I’m going to give me the link to the fountain I made that went on the outside of the pool. It was super easy to make, and might work for you better.

    They need to come up with a design where it does not extend so far into the pool but maybe curved back into the frame 🤔

    Hey great video! We just installed ours onto what looks like the same pool as yours. Have you had any issues with sand forming in the bottom of your pool? Was wondering if the fountain is somehow causing extra pressure and stress on the pump

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  Před měsícem

      No I haven’t had any issues with that at all 👍🏼

  • @chrisbellomo9254

    I like your own design better, seems less likely to be pulled out so it won't damage the liner.

    I watched your video last night about making your own pvc pool fountain. I got up early this morning and fought my way thru the group of zombie men waiting for their wives in the garden center. I got everything I needed including the pvc cement and spent $42. I just finished mine and the grandkids are gonna love it. I get back inside and get on CZcams and see this video 😂😂. I could have saved some money, but I got some good experience. Thank you for going into detail on your videos. I have a small pool for the grandkids this year. Next year I'm getting a bigger one and I'll have everything I need already. I've upgraded everything on this 10×8 pool I have including that same sand filter you have on yours.

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  Před rokem +1

      Lol enjoyed that comment. I ended up giving that new fountain to my buddy. I’m keeping the pvc one that I made mostly because it’s on the outside of the pool. But this new one works great.

    I have a summer wave elite pool try installing a fountain sprinkler similar to like your video and is there adapter that goes on the inside of the wall where the water is at because when I took off my return, the sprinkler just goes inside of my return with no female threading or nothing inside of my pool Any suggestions are different adapters that I can buy?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  Před měsícem

      Hmmmm I’ll have to do some research on those. I’m not sure.

  • @a.e.linesinc.6230
    @a.e.linesinc.6230 Před 2 měsíci +1

    But to make it work you’ll need to turn on filter which is not save to swim and it’s says on instructions of the pool. What about this? Thanks

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  Před 2 měsíci

      Yes it requires the pump to be running, if it says that in the pool instructions I have no idea why. I’ve had this for 2 years now and it works greats. The pool manufacturer is probably adding that to deter after market additions.

    In your opinion, do these fountains help cool down the water?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  Před rokem +1

      Yes, I honestly think they do. I’ve never tested the theory with a thermometer, but the pool does feel cooler when it’s running.

    Is there a way to not have the fountain run but still have the water circulate?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  Před 2 měsíci

      Just completely open the hole on the inside and the water will come out out that and not the fountain

    • @texasspitfire

      Maybe the Camera makes it sound loud. It’s just water coming out of the holes. There’s no extra pump or anything like that.
