Is $990 to upgrade media filter system with a 4IN filter a fair price?
Project Details
I am building a new house in Florida and am considering upgrading to a 4-inch filter system. I'm trying to determine if this is something that can be done after the initial build or if it needs to be integrated during the trim phase. The builder's quote of $990.00 seems high, and I'm wondering if it's a highly recommended upgrade, especially since I have two indoor cats and cockatoo birds that may occasionally be inside.
