J & G Quality Pools

 

TYPICAL SALES PRESENTATION

 

We are a member of the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and do recommend that you check us out.  You will find that we have never had even one complaint filed against us.  When we come out on a sales presentation, we bring a list of our past and present customers (there are over forty-five pages in our customer list alone).  You are welcome to call any of these customers to find out the quality of work we perform.  The majority of our past/present customers do not mind you coming out and checking out their pools if you call them first (their telephone numbers and addresses are provided).

Every product we use is of the highest quality - from our walk-in steps, to our liner, to our pumps and filters to our ladder - everything is top-of-the-line.

J & G uses a Sterling Kit by Fort Wayne Pools.  The 8' panel on this kit weighs 124 pounds.  Our closest competition to the Sterling Kit has 8' panel that weighs 115 pounds -- a difference of 9 pounds per 8' panel.  Our pool panels have a lifetime warranty and is one (1) time transferable.  When we come out on a presentation to see the pool site, we bring with us a computer disk that shows the manufacturing of panels and gives further information about the kits.

The walk-in steps we use are the most solid, well-built, steps on the market.  They are manufactured by Fort Wayne Pools.  Our competitors use other steps.  Theirs are made of acrylic and must use a brace system.  While theirs weigh approximately 100 pounds, the ones we use weigh approximately 400 pounds.  Ours do not require the use of a brace system.  In fact, once the walls and steps have been set and the footer has been poured (and before backfill has been done), a 200 pound man could jump on these steps and they would not flex.

We use a stainless steel ladder with stainless steel steps (not plastic steps as those used by our competition).

You will find our 8' spring board and base are very "springy".  We have never had a broken board.

Our standard pool has two (2) bottom drains and a separate pool cleaner line.  This cleaner is twice as fast as a Kreepy Krawler.  It walks all over the bottom picking up trash and it takes the trash to the skimmer basket.

Most of our competitors offer the Homeowner a limited choice - 15 to 20 - of liner patterns and the liner is delivered to the pool site along with the pool kit; which means the liner is probably a spec liner and could have been setting at the suppliers for an unknown period of time.  We offer a custom-built (built to the measurements taken at each individual pool) 20-Mil 100% pure virgin vinyl (with ultra violet coating).  This means that our liner lasts twice as long as any spec liner and has a better fit in the pool.  Our Homeowner gets to choose from brochures and samples of between 100 to 150 liners.

Pumps and Filters.  We give our Homeowners a Hayward Super Pump and  a Hayward  Top-Mount Hi-Rate Sand Filter.  We have found that, at this time, we consider Hayward’s pump(s) and filter(s) to be the best available.

Walk-In Steps.  A lot of our customers want to upgrade from 8' walk-in steps to 8' Leisure Steps for an additional $309.00. This includes an upgrade in pump size as well.  These steps are easy to sit on and, if two return jets are added to the steps (at a cost of $747.00) they can enjoy sitting on the steps with water being sprayed from the jets (like having a hot tub without the hot water).  If the return jets are added, we add a separate plumbing line and an extra Pentair gate valve.  This gate valve can turn the returns to the pool off and add pressure to the jets in the steps.

Though we offer a Hayward Navigator with our pool package, we offer an upgrade to a Hayward Phantom pool cleaner with a 3/4 Hp Polaris Halcyon booster pump or a Hayward Booster Pump (not only the bests, but the quietists) for a cost of $1,650.00  At present, this is the best cleaner on the market that we have found.  It skims trash from the top for 7 minutes, then drops to the bottom and cleans for 13 minutes.  It cleans not only the top and bottom, but the sides.  There is a 3-way switch that, if flipped in one direction, makes the cleaner stay on the top; if flipped in the opposite direction, makes the cleaner stay on the bottom; if flipped in the third direction, the cleaner goes to the top and to the bottom.  This cleaner gets its own electrical circuit and timer.  This timer can be set to come on and clean the pool with nobody being present.

We also offer an upgrade to a Polaris 280 with a 3/4 Hp Polaris Halcyon booster pump for an extra $1,350.00 or an upgrade to a Pentair Platinum Cleaner with a 3/4 Hp Polaris Halcyon booster pump for an extra $1,390.00.

Though most customers do not prefer a heater; we do offer heaters to those who do want one.

We offer a Hayward Energy Efficient Heater which operates on gas.

For a 16' x 32' Pool, we suggest a 300,000 btu Heater at a cost of $4,017.00

For a 18' x 36' Pool, we suggest a 350,000 btu Heater at a cost of $4,326.00

For a 20' x 40' Pool, we suggest a 400,000 btu Heater at a cost of $4,738.00

Natural Gas - The Homeowner is responsible for contacting the gas company and having them come out and change the meter to a commercial meter (should cost approximately $700 for this).  The Homeowner needs to get a Licensed Plumber come out to run the gas line and do the hook-up.  This needs to be a Licensed Plumber as he needs to pull a permit for his work.

LP Gas - Homeowner can have the LP gas company bring out a LP gas tank and hook up his gas line to the heater.

Heatwave Ice Breaker.  This unit both heats and cools the water.  Our cost to the Homeowner is $8,240.00  For this unit, it will be necessary to have 60 amp service for the heater and 30 amp service for the pool.  Therefore, it may be necessary for the Homeowner to contract with our electrician to install a subpanel, do extra trenching, and use a larger gauge of wire.

Salt Systems.  No matter what type of salt system you get for your pool, it is necessary that brass anchor sockets be installed because the aluminum anchor sockets normally used for a swimming pool will corrode over a period of time from the salt.

Since salt systems use electrolysis to produce chlorine, we use an anti-electrolysis zinc anode to eliminate plaster staining and metal corrosion due to electrolysis. In order for a Salt system to function properly the salt level should be at 3200PPM and should not exceed 3500PPM. Chlorine should be checked weekly with a test strip to ensure it is not high. High salt levels and high chlorine levels will cause corrosion even with the anti-electrolysis zinc anode that we use.

We install 2 different salt systems:

 Our customer preferred -

(1)   Auto Pilot DG-48.  Cost $2,600

(2)   Aqua Logic Goldline P-4 Turbo Salt System.  Cost $3,000

All salt systems need to have a freeze protector.  The Auto Pilot comes with one (1) Built-In Freeze Protector and Timer and is Digitally Programmed.  The Goldline Aqua Logic P-4 comes with two (2) freeze protectors with an extra 40 amp service run to it – it also comes with two (2)timers.  If you select this salt system you have the option of adding remote controls (at an additional charge) either now or at a later date.  We consider this the best salt system on the market.

If you select to install a salt system, we install brass anchor sockets, we balance the water, and we program the unit.

Light in Pool.  Most of our competitors include a light in their pool package.  We do not include a light but we do include a pool cleaner.  The light our competitors are including has a plastic niche and the light is made of plastic.  We refuse to use this type light.  We use a stainless steel niche and light.  We offer the following.....

500-Watt American Light with four (4) Colored Mood Lenses.  Cost $1,250.00.  Included in this price is an extra electrical circuit with a GFCI receptical.

SAm Light with rotating light (8 distinct colors with "between" colors).  This light is brighter than fiberoptic lighting costing $8,000.  The price of an extra electrical circuit with a GFCI receptical is also included.  This light has two (2) 150-watt halogen bulbs.  We install this light for $1,800.00.

Concrete.  The concrete deck on our pools is 8' on the deep end, 4' down both sides, and 4' on the shallow end with an extra 4' behind the walk-in steps.  At present our charge for extra concrete (including any white PVC expansion joints and fiber mesh) is $5.25 per square foot.
