Overstocked Pool Equipment

The current economic turmoil has caused many pool builders to be stuck with excessive inventory. A new website, according to Pool and Spa News, has popped up to help move all of that stuff.

Overstocks can mean big savings to consumers with pools. That's the plus. The minus is that builders may be sticking last year's model on your pool to get rid of it. Meaning, you could be paying for an updated product but getting the old one.

If you are okay with that and they have been up front about it, so be it. But, you should keep on eye on the components being installed and check them out to make sure they are the newest and most up-to-date products. Asking your builder up front about it can be helpful as well.
