Check for any ordnances in your city.  They might specify the minimum height (and type?) of fence required to surround your outdoor pool.  Thhe problem is that an outdoor pool may be regarded as an "attractive nusiance" and children under a certain age should be expected to explore it and perhaps drown.  You would be held responsible and liable.  Your home owner's insurance policy may have requirements regarding a pool.  If you have young children you also need to protect them.  Good luck.

do not cover the drive or obstruct air flow when it is in use.\n\nwhen not in use, the only problem i would have with covering it in plastic is that the plastic may carry a static charge.  while unlikely that a static charge would make it through the case, I still wouldnt chance losing my data to somthing as silly as that.  I would reccomend spending 5 bucks on a static free bag (your drive probably came inside one) to put it in.  if you dont have one or dont want to pay stop in at a best buy, circuit city, or any place with a PC tech department and ask nicely if they have an extra one they will give you.  they are super cheap and pretty easy to get, a tech department should have plenty of all sizes lying around.

Go to a pool store and buy some test strips.  Lowes or Home Depot may stock them.

Pools can be shaky ground.  If your home inspector said it was ok, then I'd call him.  The problem with home inspections is that they aren't required by law and they aren't bonded and insured.  So really all they do is just look it over and give you an opinion.  As far as any liability they have, I don't know of any.  Bet a second opinion from a pool professional and make them explain what they find.  As far as I'm aware there is no organization that oversees home inspectors or guarantees thier performance.  $1000 to repair a pool leak suggest a minor problem if any.  If there is in fact a problem, it's probably yours to deal with.  Again pools are a shaky area in home purchasing, and are generally regarded as "buy at your own risk."  As far as the old owners are concerned, you'd have to prove they had knowlege of problem, and that could be impossible.  Unless more major problems are encountered, I wouldn't involve an attorney.

It's a little odd that anyone would put an "overflow" line into a pool, unless perhaps it's an indoor pool and there may be a possibility of flooding due to an absent minded owner leaving the fill water on. Even in that case, most builders will instead use a fill valve with a timer or if an automatic fill valve is used, they are adjustable to the water height you need. They work almost like a toilet tank's fill valve.\n If for some strange reason they did add some line running from the pool , to outside the pool, that is meant to equalize the height between the top of the pipe you mention and the height of the water, it will be passive equalizing. Does it on it's own.\n All you'd need to do is to add a little more pipe, using a coupling, to raise the height it's equalizing at. Measure how much higher up the skimmer you want the max water level to be and add that much pipe.\n I'd be making sure that line is actually what you think it's for first though. If you have an integrated spa on that pool, it could be the air line for it. Look around the pool walls for any unexplained openings that may be covered by a weir or just a bare opening that serves no puropse. Use a shop vac to blow down that pipe outside the lanai and have someone inside tell you if they see bubbles. Depending on the length of run, it may take upwards of 30 seconds or so to see. Unfortunately, if it does turn out to be exactly that, an overflow, you may dislodge some debris in the pipe and send it into the pool. Nothing a quick vac job can't fix.

IP (Ingress Protection) codes define how well an enclosure protects against the external environment.\n\nAs the number gets higher, the protection gets better.\n\nThe first digit defines the protection level against "solids", the second against "liquids". You MUST use both digits to define an enclosure.\n\nFor the first digit:\n0 = No protection\n1 = Protected against objects greater than 50 mm diameter\n2 = Protected against objects greater than 12 mm diameter\n3 = Protected against objects greater than 2.5 mm diameter\n4 = Protected against objects greater than 1.0 mm diameter\n5 = Dust protected\n6 = Dust tight\n\nFor the second digit:\n0 = Not protected\n1 = Protected against dripping water (i.e. vertical plane)\n2 = Protected against dripping water up to 15 degree angle\n3 = Protected against spraying water\n4 = Protected against splashing water\n5 = Protected against water jets\n6 = Protected against heavy seas\n7 = Protected against effects of immersion\n8 = Protected against submersion

I was in the pool business for 35 years and never came across such a thing. Some builders use those glass blocks to construct spa walls, but clear glass tiles are indeed a mystery. Most pool tiles are decorative ceramic. But I gotta ask: WHY would you need such a thing? (Sorry, curiosity.)

You can have different sizes of the pool, for example: \n20 ft. wide pool 1800:20=90ft. long \nor 25ft. wide pool 1800:25=72 ft. long\nor 30 ft. wide pool 1800: 30=60 ft. long\nI would clarify with the owner what pool width he or she prefers.\nFor the side decks we add 2x5 ft.=10ft to the chosen width of the pool \nFor the end decks we add 2x10ft.=20 ft.to the length of the pool \n\nthus the pool site should be over\n\n(20 +10) x (90+10)=30'x100'\nor\n(25+10) x (72 + 10)=35' x 82'\nor\n(30 + 10)x (60+10)= 40'x 70'\n\nPlease remember to add the pool clearances from the property line as per local municipal codes. Also, the machines used for digging have to have access from this property, not from the neighbours yards.  The smaller they are the more difficult and expensive the job is. \nIf we add about 10 ft. for access (and clearance) on each side we end up with a poll site: \n(20+20)x(90+20)=40'x110'\n(25+20)x(72+20)=45'x92'\n(30+20) x(60+20)=50'x80'\n \nAn addition of the area needed for the house will give you the minimum lot size required.\nGood luck!

The dimensions of an Olympic pool are required to be 25 metres by 50 metres.\n\nAccording to the rules of FINA.org, an Olympic pool should be 50 m long by 8 times 2.5 meter lanes with 2.5m outside lanes 1 and 8 (so 10*2.5 = 25m) - minimum depth 2m.
