Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

Above-ground pools offer affordability, easier installation, portability, and flexibility in placement compared to permanent in-ground pools.

Before deciding to install a swimming pool in your yard, there are many factors to consider. Even if you still need to figure out the specifics with your pool installer, having an idea of what you'd like will help the initial consultation. Some topics to consider include:

Will you use salt water for your pool or traditional hose water?
How big of a pool do you want to install? How deep?
What special zoning laws do you need to follow for your area?
Do you want to keep it simple or add special features like underwater lighting and waterfalls?

How often you should add water to your pool depends on how quickly the water evaporates. Keep an eye on your skimmer box, if you have one. Top up the water in your pool if you notice the water levels are lower than the bottom third of your skimmer. This helps prevent damage to your pump.

Replace all the water in your pool every five to seven years, depending on how often you use your pool, the weather, and whether or not you close your pool for the winter.

While spools are much smaller than pools, some clever features still allow you to get your laps in. Some spools include directional jets to create a “current” you can use to swim laps in a smaller space. They also allow you to use your spool as a spa when you’re done swimming.

Costs range from $25,000 to $50,000, depending on size, design, and additional features.
