      There will be 4-6” difference from wall to bds
      The pipes has a slope now yes
      Raising 3 more rolls will compensate for the dirt volume
      I’m okay bud

      How are you going to keep the equipment side from getting flooded?

      The only thing I have to worry is the control box and outlets so will be under some type of cover
      Pool edges has a slope and water dont runoff
      Definitely a sump pump in a corner so I will do some concrete work on the floor once all in lines
      I might do a deck in future

      I like the way you are raising the sides. I didn't know you were going to do that.
