"Initially we had an issue over scheduling, but that issue has been resolved and the work has been done. They did a great job, the new liner looks great. They were very pleasant to work with and Mr. Cotter even gave me some advice about general upkeep of my above ground pool. Much appreciated all around."

"I was pretty happy with the repair and the work they did. I didn't have any problems but they were slightly late. 

They didn't have to actually go up and clean the ventilation system but they went ahead and did that anyway. They went ahead cleaned out the furnace as well and that might have been something I would have had to have another technician come out and do. So they kinda went above and beyond there."

"Great service. Very prompt in returning messages and scheduling the work. We had to replace a downdraft vent. After getting the run around from multiple appliance stores who asked astronomical prices, I bought the replacement myself but needed someone to install it. Dollhouse bid for the job and assured quality work. The tech arrived promptly even before schedule. He worked great and when faced with some issues in setting the ductwork, went the extra mile to install the vent. He was also very polite and nice. I will highly recommend this company for services. Their pricing was very reasonable too. Altogether, I ended up saving a lot compared to an appliance store install offer."

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

A black tarp will indeed heat your pool. Black absorbs more heat than other colors. This heat will transfer down to the water in your pool and help increase the temperature. It will not be extremely effective at raising the overall temperature, but it can help maintain the current temperature.

The generator in your saltwater pool conversion kit transforms sodium chloride—the same salt as table salt—into chlorine. A process called electrolysis sends electricity through the water to interact with the chlorine ion. This ultimately creates the chlorine that keeps your pool safe and clean. The cell in your saltwater chlorine generator is the part that converts the salt into chlorine.

You should avoid filling your pool overnight—just as a precaution. You’ll want someone around to check on the progress. If your hose springs a leak or you overfill your pool, you could end up with some costly water damage. At worst, you could flood your home’s foundation. For this reason, ensure someone is home and awake, even if your pool takes a couple of days to fill.

The decision to install a spool yourself or hire an installer depends on the type of spool and location. If you don't have experience with installations, including excavation, plumbing, and electrical aboveground pool kits are available for purchase. Without the necessary skills for a pool install, it would be wise to hire a local pool contractor for the job.

Generally, you do not need to drain your pool to convert it to a saltwater system. The main exception is if you have used an antibacterial agent containing polyhexamethylene biguanide to sanitize your pool, as these sanitation products do not mix well with saltwater systems. If this is the case, you will need to start fresh. You can either drain the pool or treat the existing water with a high dose of chlorine to remove the antibacterial agent. If you choose the chlorine treatment, wait several days to allow the chlorine to work before proceeding with the conversion. If you are unsure whether this applies to your pool, consult a pool technician.
