Overall Details

The valving overall is in good condition it does need a fresh coat of paint ($255)

And because of sometimes high chlorine levels (stains evident on plumbing) the equipment should be serviced in 1 to 10 years of all valves and valve o-rings ($550) to ensure all o rings are moist and ideal.

No leaks. And all plumbing is well connected with ideal working fittings and valving.



Yes, the equipment pad is UV protected by a UV protectant paint, recommend painting this pad to ensure long PVC piping life as well as certain equipment
Condition
Good
Notes

There is a nature 2 system present and it can be used. However, it should be set at the lowest setting to avoid over chlorination. Currently I do not believe that it is full so budget $300 to repack the nature 2 system.

Condition

Notes

Actuator no suction side sounds close to failure ($355) and will continue to function 1 - 48 more months before it will die.
