Re: Groundwater Problems

CowAnon,

Thanks for all you guys interest in this serious problem. I am attaching numerous .jpg pictures I took of the pool at the worst part or the damage. Hopefully this will indicate what I am going through. This is water behind the liner, not air!! I have tried to send many more but can't get this to work well. If you will let me know what your email address is I will send all of them to you. You might be able to look at these few and see the problem all around the pool. I explained to the pool person that installs the same pool in Jacksonville and he indicated they have the same problem over there. He indicated my solution of adding a french drain on each side,with a central point at the end of the pool, where I would put in a sump pit and sump pump would be the best way to go. I could then pump the water to vegetative swales at the front of the house. You can't imagine how much rain we received when Fay came through. There are worse pictures than these.

Let me know if you would like me to send the pictures.
