Photos Taken at a Typical Pool Inspection
Overall view of the pool. From the distance this pool appears to be in reasonable condition.
|
Sealing putty placed around skimmer's faceplate, the skimmer is also tilting back and is not level anymore
|
View of aluminum coping detached from top plate. This is occurring because the wood below is rotted and the screws no longer hold properly.
|
Wrinkles in the hopper end of pool due to an incorrectly fitted liner. Such a poor fit may cause premature wearing of the liner from devices such as an automatic vacuum.
|
Filter and pump, note several couplings patching flex hose together.
|
Taped wires going into the pump motor, they should be encased properly in conduit. This is not only an operational concern but a safety one as well.
|
The pump is not grounded, detail of grounding lug with no ground wire attached, yet another safety concern and code violation.
|
Corner separation of coping pieces. Also the trim strips are not intact.
|
Detailed view of rotted wood underneath the coping.
|
Another view showing the rotted main studs of the pool walls with the nails clearly visible. This is a serious structural problem.
|
Broken ladder socket with missing anchor wedges. |
