I got another quote from a fiberglass PB in austin and would appreciate comments/opinions
PB: Aquamarine Pools of Texas (http://www.aquapools.com)

Pool plumbing 2" schedule 40 PVC
Pump: hayward variable speed
Filter: hayward cartridge
Chlorinator: in-line chlorine feeder
Lights: Color LED 12v with wireless remote
Equipment pad, extension pole, leaf net, hand vacumm with hose, start up, test kit
complete start to swim installation with permits, 3 ft concrete deck, equipment

upgrades:

$680: Cleaner: Aquabot rapids 4wd
$1460: Aqua plus automated controls with salt chlorination

this quote is about $4,000 less than the one I got for premier pools which uses pentair equipment instead of hayward.
Thoughts?
