Napoleon PHANTOM P500 – Unboxing | Assembly | Burn-in
With the Napoleon PHANTOM P500, the centerpiece of my new garden kitchen has finally arrived. The gas grill should be firmly installed in the work area and prepare everything from juicy steak to crispy pizza. Until I’ve finished building the new outdoor kitchen, I’m going to set up the barbecue, burn it in and test it extensively. In this article you can find out more about unboxing, assembling and baking the Napoleon PHANTOM P500. I will also report on the first test results.

Converting the pool – demolishing the old retaining walls
The pool remodel in our backyard is still in full swing. The steel wall pool is to be converted into a stone pool. For this purpose, the oval steel-walled pool, which is sunk into the ground, must first be dismantled. I had already removed the foil, the skimmer, the inlet nozzles and also the LED underwater spotlight in the previous weeks. The steel wall was also removed in one piece.

Building a new pool – dismantling BPC decking and pool technology
Within 2 days I have now also dismantled my old free-standing BPC pool terrace so that I can finally start building the new pool in the garden. The pool terrace was laid in the garden around the pool a few years ago. Partly the terrace was detached because the pool is on a slope. So in addition to the BPC boards and the WPC overlays, I also had to remove the substructure made of solid larch beams. As I wanted to reuse the individual components, especially the decking boards and the wooden beams, the dismantling had to be well planned. I also documented the construction of my BPC pool deck…

Converting a pool – dismantling an old steel wall pool
Our steel wall pool is already a few years old. The oval pool has a size of 6.23 x 3.60 x 1.5 meters. The almost 30 m³ of water is heated to a pleasant 30°C automatically and weather-controlled via a solar system. The pool was built on a solid concrete base plate. On the sides, 2 walls of concrete formwork support the sides of the pool. I had shuttered the curves and also filled them with concrete. This pool is now being dismantled. I am building a new pool from concrete formwork blocks at this point. In this article, I write about the removal of the old steel wall. I…

Dry out the cellar yourself – infrared heating is used
In order to make the basement rooms of our over 100-year-old city villa usable, I first have to dry them out. The house is partially built into the slope. On the east side the basement floor is at ground level and on the west side about 200 cm below ground level. I have already used various methods for draining. I am currently creating a new watertight horizontal barrier in the masonry using chemical agents such as injection liquid, injection sticks and injection cream. I have already drained the eastern part of the cellar. Now it is the turn of the western part of the building. This time I let my…

Lawn Irrigation – Connect 4 Rain Bird Valves to Hunter X-Core Computer
I am still in the process of converting my existing Hunter lawn irrigation system. From the current 3 sprinkler circuits with 4 sprinklers each, I will build 6 circuits. I will then install 3 sprinklers per circle. For the blasters, I have so far relied on models from Hunter. My 1st valve box is also a Hunter product. Now the 2nd box is to be installed. Here, however, I rely on solenoid valves from Rain Bird. Rain Bird, like Hunter, is one of the top dogs in the irrigation equipment market. Price-wise, the valve box was even a little more interesting than Hunter’s box.
