Location: Around Swimming Pool
Sytle: 5ft Rod Iron Fence
Notes: in good overall condition, however the hinges on this fence inhibit it from working correctly. It currently self latches and self closes IF it is open 100% and then let go. However if it it is any less it will not self close or self latch. I feel it is because of rusted corroded hinges. If repaired or addressed this fence should work properly again.

Additional Water Quality Notes

The water quality is in good condition. I would not make any changes to the water or it's chemistry at this time. I may recommend in the next 3-7 years to do a partial drain to bring the calcium hardness to a lower level.

Notes: The skimmer is in need of a new skimmer basket ($25) as well as a skimmer basket float valve ($45). These items are needed immediately (before spring) to ensure proper operation of the equipment and circulation of the pool water.

Filter Additional Notes

Manufacturer: Jandy
Model: Cartridge
Size: 460 Sqft
Notes: The filter is in good working condition. There are no leaks present. There are signs of corrosion on the filter where seals have failed in the past, however at this time there are no issues. I would recommend maintain the main filter tank seal (lubricating the tank o ring with non hardening silicone every quarter to ensure a proper seal) upon every quarterly filter cleaning.

Filter Pump Condition: Good$

Filter Pump Notes
Filter Pump Additional Notes

Manufacturer: Jandy
Model: Stealth
Size: 2hp
Notes: The filter pump is in good condition. The motor on this pump has been replaced in the past 3-7 years. That is because the distance between the pool and the equipment puts additional strain on the pump / pump motor. This (in my opinion) is what May have caused the original pump motor to expire early AND the sun exposure on the equipment currently. By simply installing a shade cover you may significantly prolong the life of this motor.

The in line erosion chlorinator tablet feeder is not currently connected. It is bypassed. It can be reconnected. However it is likely removed because of leaking connections (connection kit $55) and can easily be repaired to include this back into the system.
