Great video mate, exactly what I was looking for!

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

Glad it helped. Cheers.

[@mikimiki195]

Wow great video thank you
What is max distance from the pool to the equipment should be?

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

Hi. Glad it helped. There isn't really a maximum as distance can be compensated for with the right equipment. The further away you are from the skimmer box, the bigger the pump (and filter to cope with the higher water pressure from the bigger pump) is needed. Feel free to call 1300 652 710 and let us know about your project and we can give you better information about what you will need.

Hi mate, awesome videos. I was wondering if you would do a video on infloor cleaning installation on a fibreglass pool and some info on the set-up of all the plumbing on the pool side of things including cutting in the skimmer box etc.
Cheers

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

Thanks for the suggestion Mark. The pool plumbing video is in post production at the moment and should be live before the end of the month. We've added infloor cleaning to the list of future videos. Cheers.

What type of unions did you use? Did you install any shut off valves? How did you pipe in the second pump , to heat pump, in and out?

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

The installer used the standard barrel unions supplied with the equipment. For this particular installation the owner didn't want any non-return valves or three-way valves fitted however they are often installed. Can you explain your last question in a little more detail as we are not quite sure what you are asking!

Hi, I just found your video and subscribed you. I recently bought a house which has exactly same pool system as you built. However I have no idea how to control the system, especially how I add all chemical to the system. What I know is that the system does self sanitising so it means that I have to put all different type of chemical in some containers in the system so the system check the quality of water in the pool and use right amount of the chemical. It will be much appreciated if you can provide some information how to maintain the pool with this system. Thank you.

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

Hi. Thanks for your comment. The best way to learn your system and also how to maintain your pool is to take a water sample to your local pool shop for testing. They will let you know what you need to add to your water and also explain how the chlorinator, filter and pump works. It seems a lot at first however you will soon get the hang of it in a week or two.

Awsome vidoes,
I am in a process of installing a 8x4 pool with step on one side.
I was going to run two return jets in shallow end one on the short end off step poited across the steps toward deep end and two in the deep end pointed towards the shallow end for future heat pump. What would be your recommendations? Thanks

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

Thanks for your feedback. The standard configuration is to have two safety suction points in the deep end (you need two to comply with Australian Standards) wall and a single return jet lower down the shallow end pool wall.

[@itisahmo]

Thank you for reply,
I will be installing a skimmer do I still require 2 suction points or just one with the skimmer?

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

You need two so they work as safety suctions. It is a requirement with Australian Standards. The idea is the two fittings are plumbed together behind the pool wall. A single line then runs back to the water pump. If a little person gets stuck on one of the suction points, all of the suction pressure moves to the other fitting and a drowning is prevented.

[@itisahmo]

@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits
Thanks again, will the caution points still be required if not installing pool heater?
How do I get in contact with you lol

[@itisahmo]

@@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits
Could you recommend suction fittings?

[@benjaminmota5861]

Is the pipe for the heater pump running straight from the suction or is it from the filter?

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

The inlet pipe for the heating is connected to separate suction points in the pool. Cheers.

[@benlybramly7732]

What bolt are used to anchor the equipment to the salb?

[@CompleteFibreglassPoolKits]

Hi. Many installers use dyna-bolts
