Pump motor is undersized and the conduit behind the pump and filter looks like a kid installed it. You should have them clean that mess up, strap the pipe to the wall and protect the wiring in liquid-tight flex with a weathertight connector on top. How are you supposed to service the condensing unit, should have 12" clearance.

No, it's cartridge. Although I have a buddy at work who LOVES his de setup.

The pool dimensions are 5 ft by 12 ft. It's made for 1 person. We have a chess timer clock where you only get 10 minutes of water time and then your time is up. We put the pool 6 inches from the house. We needed more backfill dirt, so we dug out under the foundation and filled that with styrofoam. We decided not to use a pump, I'm just hooking up my blower. And I finally decided on a pool heater:

I was wondering this myself - it looks a little close. I prefer to walk over a mile to my pool.
