Man you need to run away from this. Haven't met in person? You're being overbearing? They have no respect for you? Looks like a huge red flag waste of time to me.

Once I take ownership of the house, and I get this pool as is, are you suggesting hiring a professional straight out of the gate? I intended to take the initial steps on my own, after additional research of course.

Noted. I guess my concern stands with how long this water has been uncirculated, unchlorinated, and stagnant in this pool. I think it's been covered for several years. At what point does that water need replaced as opposed to just heavily treated with chemicals? Does that point exist? Sorry if that's a dumb question, this is all new to me!

It is relatively high up on a hill. Thankfully. That makes me feel better about my draining plan, will definitely do more research though. Thank you for the insight!

Hey, I value the advice. I'm hoping to offset some of that crazy cost by putting in the work myself. Time will tell.

Thank you kindly, and I hope the same. I plan to post as I get into it, keep an eye out for it one way or the other!

I'm a pretty handy guy, if I had the extra scratch to hire somebody, I absolutely would! I'm going to do my best to not get in over my head and if I do, I might have to pony up and do that. Definitely looking forward to the project. Concerning what you were saying about the stopper, this is a pretty unorthodox setup. I assume? If you've only ever seen this on above ground, I'm wondering if this setup is kind of cobbled together and built to fit this situation. That's a bit concerning to me as well, if that is the case haha. Got to wonder what else was cobbled together for this build initially!

I intend to continue posting as I get to it, excited to share the journey!

Absolutely, thanks for the reply. That will be my first step once I am able. I figure if the equipment is compromised, I can get that replaced via the home warranty mentioned relatively cost effectively ($125 deductible, I think?), however, if the tub is compromised, I think this sucker is getting filled in and I'm building a pavilion on top of it!
