Getting Quotes on FG Pool

[2Hipp]

Waterbear,
Thanks for the advice and I have read through your posts. Your situation is exactly why I came on this board before getting any quotes. I want to make sure I'm armed with as much info as possible.

The contractor that deals with Viking pools has done 2 pools in my neighborhood so I'll be going to speak with them in the next couple of weeks to see how their experience went.

Does anyone have any input on the standard package listed above? I want to make sure I'm getting properly sized piping, correct pump size, and should I get an additional skimmer?

Thanks,
Bill

I imagine this is defined by the fact that it's a Viking Cancun, but you may wish to list the dimensions and/or capacity of the pool to assist potential reviewers so they don't have to go look it up.

Doh...I guess that info would be good to list, thanks. It is 35' x 16' x 6.5' deep.

I looked at 5 pools that were installed by my contractor and talked to 4 other of his previous customers. It doesn't guarentee anything! Mine had done excellent work but he seemed to fall apart while my pool was being installed.
