Q: Why am I losing water in my inground pool?

• <div><p>In-ground pools lose water naturally due to wind, heat, and humidity. They also lose water from the kiddos' cannonball competitions. But be mindful of the water level. If it drops too low and the pump draws in air instead of water, it will likely be damaged and require repair or replacement.</p></div>

Q: What is the most popular inground pool shape?

• <div><p>Rectangular pools are the most popular inground pool shape, due to their adaptability to different uses, from swimming laps to hosting parties. These pools can easily include other sought-after features, such as tanning ledges, waterfalls, sport nets, and more. Rectangular pools are also often easier to install and maintain, and prefabricated rectangular pools generally have a shorter installation time, so you can start enjoying your pool faster.</p></div>

Q: What is the expected timeline for completing a vinyl-lined swimming pool installation?

• <div><p>Installation typically takes 4-8 weeks, including site preparation and liner installation.</p></div>

The two guys who came out on Sat. were great! They showed up when they said they would. We were missing some parts for the garage door opener but they were able to install it with spare parts they brought with them. I would hire them again.
