Hi -- Do you have a pool- or patio-related question, or a suggestion for what you'd like to see covered on this site? You can email me at poolandpatio@aboutguide.com.
F.A.Q.
- I've heard the word "spool" and know they're not referring to thread. What exactly is it?
- The kind of spool you're asking about is neither a bobbin nor a turbocharger. In the pool and spa world, a spool is a combination of a large spa and a small pool (hence the name) that is insulated and inground, with built-in spa jets.
