I will have lot's of pictures so you guys can tell me how F*@#ed i am. ;-) I ran into a guy who has worked the mechanics of pools his whole life and described the situation to him. He had a pretty good guess that it may have been put in for a handicapped person. I will confirm with the inspector this Saturday. Thanks again guys. I have a feeling i will need your help in the near future. Looks like a lot of pool work is to come! -v

I will be going for my inspection this friday. While i'm there i'll make note of the pool builder which i believe i had seen printed on the stair. Thanks Pathfinder. -v

idnmadt, was kinda thinking the same thing on the drain being a return. Because there are no jets, i'd think if the water level fell below the wall, a drain would suck it dry. I will definitely get more images next time there. My suspicion is that this pool will be the most expensive renovation of the house. If I move into this place i owe you guys an explanation of it's origin if i ever get one. -v

LOL!!! Thanks guys. I was thinking since it's next to the bar it may be a PeePeePool. Stay tuned for my next round of questions when i show images of all the pipes, filters and pumps... in a segment i like to call "WTF"!!!! -v

"I have never seen anything like this. " HA! That's funny(but not really since i may be the one buying it). Thanks for looking anyway. BTW, good point on the drains. I have kids, so I will check during the inspection if these are safe. Thanks. -v

Newbie to this forum. I was looking at purchasing this home and had questions on the configuration of this pool. Anyone's advice would be appreciated. I've attached a link to images on flickr of the pool. The pool's features are a water fall, a spa and some kind of wading pool? The wading pool is what i am confused about. Not sure why it's there? It is just off a pool side bar but doesn't really work as a swim up. If anything, it's in the way. Also, it looks to be about 4 feet deep and too small for children to wade in. No bench just stairs? Any ideas for its existence? Hopefully my photo link works or i can send email images. Thanks in advance. -v Pool images here
