Looking for feedback on pricing as well as what we have on the quote that we don't need, and what we don't have on the quote that we do need.

Here is a snippet of the quote with the options we have in mind so far:

-Leisure Pools Moroccan 38n Australian Blue $41,885.00

-Accent color concrete to lower deck only limited 220 sq $ 2,860.00

-Electrical service: pool light, cover, heat & pool pump Max 3,500.00

Sales Tax on materials only base 31,300.00 $ 2,425.75

The PB said he has an SR Smith Vortex in stock that he got "Display pricing" on over the off season and he will give us a great deal on.

We are thinking of switching from the PAL 3 LED system to a single Intellibrite color LED in the deep end.

The auto cover is from Cover pools, and we want to go with the flush track rather than the top track as spec'd.

PB is ALL about sand filters and does not normally stock cartridge filters. He is also very against SWG saying that a normal 3 step process is not as difficult as some make it out to be. He was pushing a UV sanitizer along with the 3 step chlorine, but I think we are going to pass on that.

Concrete is listed as broom finish but he was displaying some sort of acrylic sealant for the concrete and I think that is what we are going to go with. Concrete used for coping will be dyed for contrast from the rest of the patio.

Here is a rough "blueprint" of what things will look like. Click for larger size:

It was drawn with excel so it should be fairly accurate. Top of image is South, Right is West, etc.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!
