We did a 15x30 TD pool a few months ago. I really like the shelf or sitting area to place 3 chairs with an attachment for an umbrella in the water. Also in the deep end a shelf about a foot underwater that comes out maybe 18 inches and 5 feet long, a nice area to just sit. We also have a water spigot and a 110 outlet placed on an outside wall. I have purchased a battery powered power washer form WORX and it works great, just place the hose attachment into the pool and very easy to walk around and clean the decking or bird cage. Lights in the pool are very nice, our living area opens to the pool area. TD placed the lights such that the light actual bulb is facing away from our living room, thus we are not looking at the bright light itself but can see the lighted pool water change color. My wife “upgraded” the screen on the bird cage to something called “20/20” not much difference than regular screen but a smaller weave and it keeps out the tiny bugs that seem to come right thru regular screen. Something else to consider is where to place the pump and filter, although it is very quiet when running ours is very close to our neighbors bedroom window, so we have it programmed to come on at 10 am and runs during the day. Also it’s very nice to sit in the living room and listen to the water fall which you can program to come on when you desire. TD was our choice because as I understand it they have all the needed people working for them, they don’t really contract out portions of the work. The guys who dig the hole, do the plumping, place the re-bar, set the tile, paint, solar system, and birdcage all work for TD, thus for us a seem less process. TD also will let you pay for it all on your credit card. I jumped on that idea with my cash back rewards and was able to purchase all the pool furniture. When buying pool furniture make sure not to get anything that is s going to rust. When placing scrubs around your bird cage, keep in mind they will grow and you want them far enough away from the screen when they do mature. The guys placing the sprinkler heads were well aware to position the sprinkler heads so the are not to close to the screen. It only been a few months but all in all we are very happy with our pool.
