As it is not possible to for Positive Pool Wholesale Supply, Inc. to have full knowledge or complete details of your pool, we cannot and will not accept responsibility for merchandise that is not compatible or does not function with your system. We always recommend that the buyer contact the manufacturers directly to determine that the product will be suitable in their environment and to obtain a part number, if in doubt. Most of the time, we can acquire items once we have a part number to research for you. Buyer assumes all responsibility without exception, outside of a manufacturer's stated return policy or warranty. We apologize, but this is due to the huge variety and complexity of pool systems and pool products. We have found that in the majority of cases where a product does not work as desired, it is not due to a product defect, but rather the wrong product, or a problem with the buyer's system.
