Hey Brian, do you order your pool chemicals online?  Lot of things to learn now that I have a pool.

No, I buy my chlorine from a pool dealer two miles from my house.

Is the pool new or is it exsisting with the property?

I use cholorinie rather than Baquacil. At the time my pool was built, they offered me a salt water system, but the cost was $5,000 more. Now it's much less.

I only buy cholorine tabs at the pool store. I don't buy their alkalinity powder (Sodium bicarbonate). I buy 20 lb bags of Arm and Hammer baking soda. It's the same thing and costs 1/3 less. I use it to increase alkalinity and it makes your water sparkle. My pool is 21,000 gallons, and it burns three 2'' tablets a week. It will burn 4-5 a week when temps are over 100F.

Mine is very easy to take care of. I clean it once a week, and backwash the system once a week.

At my store, as long as it does not affect the angle on the drive shafts from factory specifications, no.

If it does, the would not honor a failure on transfer case, rear differential and gearsl, drive shafts, etc..

We just had a case like that on a Ram 1500 regular cab.

I would check with your local dealer just to be safe. Each dealer has it's own little quirks. If someone was to bring an issue like that in to us and didn't buy it from us, we would not be as willing to help.

The pool will be a new since they have to totally redo the one that is there.  This pool is 26,000 gallons so it should burn about the same.  And thanks for the tips.

GM is quite different on their stuff. Our GM store isn't as picky, as long as you don't change the computer programming. Dodge will send an adjuster to look at a failed part if it is not common. They will not pay for the tear down, or the failed item if items have been altered.

Im talking about the covers for between the body and frame on the bed and rear bumper.  If you dont buy them to you will have a big gap between them.  Also and check on the bumper lifts to. That way your bumpers will be raised to meet your body.

Is it a concrete pool or a concrete pool with a vinyl liner?
