@ we use 10in culvert piping and putt a square skimmer lid on to match when we pour. 18 is real big. You might to get creative on that one. Maybe pour a stone lid with a cut out for the skimmer and set on on top and pour the patio cover that with the skimmer lid in place

Thank you! I do plan to continue what I’m doing on the daily videos. I am coming out with a 17 part series on how to build an Inground swimming pool. As far as design, who knows. I would definitely live to do something of that nature.

@@jonport_ thanks I’m in Florida I have a fiberglass pool also installed 08. I think they forgot to install it I need to paint or gel coat it it chalks up like milk when I brush it. Any suggestions thanks in advance.
@mycatmycat3786 yeah it really needs one. Yep, sounds like you need to get it re-coded possibly talk to the manufacturer to have them re coat and i’d make sure whoever does it if you do that, go extra steps to leave the groundwater around the pool and make sure everything is done correctly, according to the manufacturer guidelines. Could always test the water table as well to see where it’s at
@@jonport_ manufacturer out of business. So on my own I am in home remodeling so very handy I don’t want it to pop up when I empty it and sand and redo I do have a lake about 250 yard east of us. Should I install something similar to your black pipe or a well point be enough. I’m assuming the black pipe is that size so you can stick a sump pump in and drain if needed. Thanks.
@@mycatmycat3786 if you feel confident that you can catch the groundwater around the pool, I would do that. If not, I know Florida builders will punch 10 to 15 different holes around the pool project with special pumps and drain the water for a few days before they start the project so you would have to look into that. We don’t have to do that here.
30+ years in the pool game. You forgot the gaskets and those vinyl liner skimmers are not made to have the pool wall in between the liner and skimmer and face plate sandwitch.
@@homeguardster its so minor you’re not doing much. The top i could see maybe but you have to get the skimmer high enough plus it all gets filled with concrete so that definitely locks it in

I just installed some returns and one of those Thursday pools skimmers. Thanks to lots of your tips and advice
Awesome. Anytime brother!
Jon, what did you use to cover that large corrugated stand pipe on the finished grade? that looks like an 18”
@@rotem11 the sump well?
@@jonport_yes, do you know where I can buy a cover for an 18” sump well?

@@jacobfenwick337 all the fittings and skimmers we use are from CMP of course schedule 40 hard pipe andPentair equipment
@jonport_ yea sick... I was more referring to the supplier of the pool it's self?

@@PamDuddy i didn’t receive it
What’s the black pipe for.
@@mycatmycat3786 to drain any ground water that goes around your pool. It’s used for a safety so your pool shell doesn’t float

@@87TurboT I didn’t forget the seal on a vinyl liner inside and out,2 seals. On the fiberglass pool I use silicone.
Thank you. I sent the pic again.
I have a Construction company I would love to add pool install, can we talk, thanks
@@rwdsconstruction yes sir we can do it. Send me an email and we’ll get on a call. Jonathanportukalian@gmail.com
There is no way the manufacturer lets you cut out all these structures on these pools
Cut out? For the skimmer?
The top flange and cutting into ribs
@@homeguardster its so minor you’re not doing much. The top i could see maybe but you have to get the skimmer high enough plus it all gets filled with concrete so that definitely locks it in
