What about if you have a 30' round? We are planning to walk out from our exixting deck, straight onto the largest portion of the decking and also to the left. We are thinking of putting the pump where the largest part of the decking ends, but not UNDER the decking.Will it be too loud for our company to fathom? It seems like the best location for "site" considerations. Not visible from the road (which is only traveled by my sis and hubby) and not visible from the existing deck. Looking over the end of the soon to be new decking, sure, you'll be able to see it........but everyone knows you have to have a pump/filter for a beautiful pool.
