Yes around that and using 3" tab chlorine.

The manager said the builder need to break them to get them off.

Yes, this is what they said to me.

The store said it is optional accessory and it is not needed.

Well, we talked to the store and they said the strips are custom made come with the steps, so they can't replace it. I don't think it is true, but i can't prove it. Also my skimmer is missed the face plate cover. I think this is the one i have "Hayward SP1085F White Snap on Face Plate Cover"...

The contract say "Standard fixtures, including the skimmer, returns, and main drain, will get new seals and face plates." They already put the old one there. I don't think it can do anything now? Here is the zoom in photo, will it causes problem? https://ibb.co/eq3rUa
