What pumps (cleaners, filters) do you carry?


There are three major manufacturers of pool equipment in the pool industry—Pentair, Zodiac (Jandy), & Hayward. They all manufacture products that can be effective in the right situation. Probably more than just selecting a manufacturer, I would suggest that you put some thought in the company selling it to you by asking a few questions:
  • Are they sizing the equipment to my pool or just selling me what they have in stock?
  • Will they be around next month, next year, 10 years from now to back up the product?
  • Are they a warranty station for the manufacturer—in case I need warranty work?
  • Will they have parts available when I need them in the future?
