Good afternoon! I am currently getting bids for inground pool. I'm looking at 18 x 35 freeform, 3-4 ton waterfall at the end of the pool, 2 bubblers on the steps. 3 1/2' - 6' - 4' deep. Coping will be flagstone or travertine. It will not be saltwater. We have a stand alone spa, so no concrete spa. I have 3 bids, all close in price but different in every other way. I am hoping someone here can help me make a few decisions, mostly about type of filter, ozone vs no ozone, pump size/plumbing size and # of returns(5 vs 6).
