A few installation details.

Help the contractor understand the job.

The calculator prices standard replacement work. New utility lines, circuits, relocation and other site upgrades need a separate contractor quote.

Before you replace it.

What equipment can I request?

Pumps, motors, filters, heaters, heat pumps, salt systems, cells, automation, lights, cleaners, valves and more. Solar heating, backflow assemblies and unusual equipment are assessed individually. Choose “Other / not sure” if you need a diagnosis.

Is this a guaranteed installed price?

No. These are illustrative planning allowances for standard replacements. The contractor checks model compatibility, sizing, site conditions, tax, permits and any extra work before giving a final quote.

Am I booking a licensed contractor immediately?

You are requesting contractor coordination. PoolSide must confirm availability and appropriate licensing before a contractor visit or installation is scheduled.

Can my existing equipment be repaired instead?

Possibly. Describe the problem in the request form. Ask the contractor to compare a repair with replacement after diagnosing the equipment. The calculator shows replacement budgets, not repair diagnosis prices.
