Congratulations!! I know it's been a long road, but you know that it's well worth it. Good luck with the inspections!!

Update:
Passed building and electrical inspection last week - Yea!
Solar heating installed yesterday. My wife called as soon as the contractor was done and said that she could feel the warm water at the return, I couldn't feel it when I got home but the pool temp was 5 F warmer than the day before.
Now to fix the yard (mud hole).

Yep, this summer has been all about the pool without actually having one to use. Now, How to close...

[Watermom]

Don't close yet. You've got a few weeks of swim season left, don't you?

[BigDave]

I'm planning on more swimming - since the solar panels were installed Wednesday, the pool has gone from 71 F to 80 F last night in mixed sun and rain. Afetr last nights rainstorm ( I had to drain the pool 1-1/2" ) It's down to 74 F this morning but ... the sun is on the panels.

Yes, don't close yet. Even if you can't swim, keep it running to get practice with testing and balancing chems. I so envy your solar heat. Wish we had a good spot for the panels, it would really extend our season.

I'm happy for you to get the pool finished in time to enjoy it, however briefly.
