Location: Around swimming pool.
Sytle: Rot Iron
Notes. The fence overall is in good condition. However the access point has an issue with self closing. The self closing mechanism is only closing when open past 50%. Therefore it does not close at 0-50% open. This is a safety hazard. Recommend repairing this access point.

Approx Gallonage: 22-26k Gallons
Dimensions: 12 x 32
Notes: The swimming pool plaster is in fair to good condition. There are signs of wear throughout the plaster surface. There are also rust stains in the deep end, you can respolve this stain issue with a treatment service ($225) I would give this plaster a 7 out of 10 and expect this plaster surface to last another 7 - 20 years with proper water balance.

Type of Tile: Ceramic
Notes. The tile is in good condition. There are no loose or missing tiles. There is a very light calcium build up and waterfall calcium build up, that may be removed using a pumice stone. Or you may use a Glass Bead Blasting Service ($400) to remove existing calcium deposits.

Algae present? Foliage found in water? Water loss present?
Additional Water Quality Notes

Overall the water chemistry is in fair condition. There needs to be additional chlorine added to this pool before more algae becomes
present. Recommend a water balance service $125, and since the equipment is leaking all the salt water from the pool I expect this pool to need $100-200 in salt needed as well.

This intellichlor system is in working condition, however the salt levels are low due to an equipment leak. Once salt levels are restored and the leak maintained the system will be in working condition.

Valves & Fittings Condition: Damaged (Needs Attention)$

Overall Details

All valves are in good working condition except for one actuator, that controls the waterfall and deck jets. There is currently no power to this unit and it most likely needs replacement ($325). Additionally one valve is leaking at this time. This valve needs the seals to be replaced asap ($175). Once the actuator is replaced this should be able to be controlled via the remote (which is not on site). Replacement remote ($676).
