I know nothing about pools so can someone in plain english explain what makes this pool different/special too other pools? It's a new type of waterless pool.

TexDawg is the pool expert, so I will defer any judgement on this subject to him.

Curious as to cost savings verses inground pool?
Trust your own instinct. Your mistakes might as well be your own, instead of someone elses.

A friend in the neighborhood has a fire hydrant in front of house. He had access to a hose to fit it. Filled his pool in a few hours.

Do NOT do that yet…they probably have to spray it with some TRU coat first.

They are laying the travertine coping today. After that will be a 3’ concrete walkway around the pool, which will tie into the pergola foundation. So the total pool foot print will be 20 X 32. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2024/05/full-100487-223947-image000000.jpeg)

Travertine coping is in. Wife chose the color and, of course, I’m good with it. Happy wife, happy life. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2024/05/full-100487-224009-img_0290.jpeg) Three foot concrete deck is next.
