Once your interior pool finish is applied, your pool is ready to be filled with water. In many cases you can begin filling your pool the same day your interior finish is applied.

You must have a garden hose available for the fill. Let the water run until the pool is in the center of the six inch tile at the top edge of the pool or to the center of the skimmer. Turn the water off.

There will be a slurry pit left in your yard for three days. It needs to sit and harden, then it will be removed.

If you are scheduling landscapers, be sure slurry pit is not in area to be landscaped or schedule your landscapers on the fourth day after your pool has had pebbletech installed.

If you have existing grass, assist the crew to find a place to put the slurry pit on another surface.

When your pool is complete and filled with water, you can turn on all equipment. You will need to add chemicals usually consisting of chlorine, muratic acid and stabilizer. If you included an automatic Chlorinator, then some chemicals may not be necessary. All automated time clocks should be set. It is a good idea to run the filter system 24 hours a day until the pool water is clear. After clearing, the pool system can be run as few as six hours a day or longer depending on size and certain equipment on your pool.

Remember, no matter how automatic and how self everything your pool is you still need to check the chemicals and empty the skimmer and leaf baskets.
