Outdoor swim spa cover question
Comments (1)Make the roof a fixed roof with either clear or frosted or tinted sunroom/greenhouse style roofing, then surround it with walls that are mostly glass -- either on all four sides, or at least on three sides ( three sides if one side of the structure is against another building). https://www.pinterest.com/pin/439593613600488021/...See MoreLG LSG4513ST gas range - do you have one? do you like it?
Comments (0)Seriously thinking about buying the LG LSG4513ST gas range. Anyone have one in their home? How do you like it? Seems to be good reviews everywhere, just want to hear from someone who actually uses it before I commit to this big purchase. TIA!...See MoreShould I buy a used Michael Phelps swim spa?
Comments (3)Did you make your choice yet? Used Swimex pools do become available from time to time and would be within your budget if you waited long enough. As you know, the Swimex paddlewheel current is considered the most superior of any on the market right now. It almost sounds like with your landscaping that a Containur Pool made of a repurposed shipping container and fiberglass with fitting for an Endless Pool swim current would be ideal since you could set it without any retaining wall, just piers on your slope. Those are also within your budget. The Michael Phelps swim spas are excellent, and I'm sure you would enjoy one if you went that direction. However, buying a used one and expecting another 15 years out of it is risky. Those shells are acrylic and not as durable as fiberglass, especially if this will be outdoors. The parent company, Masterspas, has also been known to deal with some quality failures on occasion, though no more it would seem than most other spa companies. Those stand-alone spas do tend to start having problems that require repair starting around the 5-year mark and beyond. A gunite pool can last a lifetime and is often competitively priced against a swim spa, but your landscape would add a lot of cost since you have that slope. I am interested to hear what you decided....See MoreSmartcore ultra under a swim spa
Comments (3)If you want to run floor underneath the spa, you must have a permanent (glue/nail/staple/mortar) floor. A floating floor underneath an anchor like a small swimming pool = a floor that rips it self appart. Normally flooring isn't needed underneath a permanent structure such as cabinets, hot tub or swimming pool....See Morekeast
