Additional Tile Notes

The waterline tile all looks to be in good condition overall.

The spillover tile has issues present; it appears to be eroding some of this spillover area and is likely no longer waterproof, therefore will require some attention and re-waterproofing ($1k+). There are other areas on the outside of the spa raised wall that show signs of water permeation / missing grout and mortar that may require attention ($1k+).

Inside the spa on the east most wall at the waterline, there does appear to be a rust stained developing, which may be caused by an issue below the surface ? , recommend treatment to confirm issue type (metal / scales/ Etc $100+).

Also the skimmer throat has some gaps forming that will need to be addressed soon for water proofing ($500+). Also note the pool corner near the skimmer has some gaps forming as well.

The water quality is nominal with some light algae present (possible on shaded walls - very light yellow algae seen). Recommend treatments to remove ($100+). One thing to know is that the water is likely older / higher calcium hardness. And if high TDS recommend 1/2 or full drain and re fill ($200+).

The salt unit was blinking a diagnostic code. Recommend attention. Since there was chlorine present I presume this cell is working without issue, recommend service to confirm ($50).

Note if the cell is in fact bad, a new cell cost is $950+

Valves & Fittings Condition: Great - Like New Condition$800

Overall Details

All equipment present is painted, I would recommend labeling and covering for you be using a UV mesh ($200).

A special note that the equipment pad was wet likely from the air conditioner, overflow condensation line, making any cool equipment leak diagnostic work difficult due to the mass amounts of water run off.



The equipment appears to be in direct sunlight a large portion of the day. By simply covering the equipment with a UV mesh shade ($25-55 on Amazon + Installation) you will see approx 3x equipment life and 3x less equipment breakdown. This is recommended here.
