I would move the Easy Touch up to the 8 as you will use up the 4 fast and better to have too many than not enough for this.

Can you guesstimate the gals on your pool? You might need to move up to the 60 with the SWG. Better too big than too small on this as well.

Driveway parking-is it cheaper to repair/replace the driveway than to pay now for them to park and send it from the road? Not many driveways can stand up to that kind of weight.

Valves-Make sure they are going to use the "good" ones like these: Amazon.com: Pentair 263037 3-Way PVC 1-1/2 inch (2 inch slip outside) Pool And Spa Diverter Valve: Garden Outdoor Now this is just he first ones I found. There are others. Just don't allow the simple ball valves found in the box stores.
