| Okay. So we have our first quote on our pool. Of course, we have no idea if this is a fair price. Would love your opinion. It's for a 95 perimeter pool with a spa.
Depth: 3 x 5 x 4
Steel reinforcing (#3, #4 rebar)
$38,229

| SunTouch is the wrong controller. Should be an EasyTouch. Freeze protection with Pentair is user controllable WRT to what gets turned on at the designated activation temp. It's not like you're getting something additional that you would have to pay for. I have never heard of gunite measured that way. How thick the walls, floor and bond beam, and the compressive strength are normally how it's quoted. Gunite usually comes from a conveyor type truck, not bagged product. Rebar info needs to be more specific. Spacing and bond beam reinforcement pattern are often specified. Consider using LED lights. They are a bit more money but well worth it. 500W/100W incandescents aren't "Deluxe". How many returns, plumbing sizes, and type of pipe should be specified. How big is the spa? How big is the tanning ledge? "Safety" drains, when used, are a requirement for their use. Scott |
