My old pool pump was on the way out so I went to srp.net and got a list of installers for the $100 rebate.
I emailed about 10 different companies and I chose Desert Diamond Pool Service because they were the only ones that also quoted me on just replacing the motor which would save about $300-$400 and quoted on an install for the full pump.
I ended up going with the full pool pump because it had a better warranty and the control panel is easier to use but I appreciated the suggestion of just replacing the motor, that was an indication that he was honest and it wasn't just about an up sell.
Cody did a good job of installing and calibrated the pump so I'd get a full cycle of water per day and that it would run at off peak hours.
He also is taking care of the srp rebate so that amount was taken off the invoice so I don't even have to deal with that.
I appreciate Cody being honest because it shows you how dishonest others are. I was talking to him about changing the sand on my filter and I mentioned that another guy said replacement bolts for the filter were $400 and he laughed and said you could get those at the hardware store for $20.
All in all I appreciate Cody and would recommend Desert Diamond Pool Service to those looking for honest work and someone that will look to give you the most cost effective solution and not BS you all day long.
thanks
