My blue haven story

January 29th, 2003 · 3 Comments

Thanks for the post. I checked out your site. Sad
that’s it’s been such a stressful experience, it doesn’t
have to be like that. I hope, like me, a pool owner
for 12 years, you’ll have so much fun with it over
years to come that you’ll still consider it worthwhile
in the end. Bad publicity hurts, so keep making sure
others hear about your experience with that company.

    I just noticed your message regarding your Blue
    Haven pool. I have been very dissatisfied with the
    service and follow up (NONE to be exact!) after the
    installation and incompletion of my Blue Haven Pool.
    Incompetence cannot begin to describe the service personnel.
    There is constant turnover in personnel. It took
    several weeks to get something as simple as a bad timer
    changed. They have been given a “punch list” and have
    promised several times to correct the problems. It has
    been over 18 months to date and not much has been
    done. I will post updates as they develop.<br
    Is your website changed or still active?

    I have a Barmil pool.. What a disaster to say the
    least. They did not use screws in all the places they
    had too, the deck in a couple of places is loose and
    coming apart, they put the filter directly under the
    deck so to access the filter is very difficult, the
    water turned so green I had to add 50 gallons of bleach
    to a 24 round pool just to get it clean. When I
    called the company they just gave me a song and dance
    and never did anything to correct the problems..oh
    yea… the water discharge on the filter is aimed at the
    pool ,so when I have the filter on waste… the water
    shoots right at the pool and takes away the dirt holding
    the pool up, we had to tie up the hose to point it
    away from the pool… It has been a year and the
    Barmil company will not do a thing to fix these problems

    even after my lawyer wrote them a letter.<br
    never buy a Barmil pool, it was very expensive also,
    over $9,000
