Q: Are there customization options available for above-ground pools?

• <div><p>Customization options may include different pool shapes, sizes, decks, and additional accessories like ladders or pool lights.</p></div>

Q: How much room do you need around a pool?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-choose-a-swimming-pool-design.htm">When designing your dream pool</a>, it's important to leave enough room for safe walkways, patios, and extras such as outdoor kitchens and fire pits. Your local building codes may specify the minimum space between your pool and your house, utility lines, and property line. In most cases, the area of the patio around the pool should be equal to or greater than the surface area of the pool.</p></div>

Q: How can you heat a pool without a heater?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t have the budget for one, there are numerous ways to warm up your pool without a heater. You can improve the insulation, use solar covers to trap heat from the sun, or even let a black hose sit in the sun until it heats up and delivers fresh, warm water straight to your pool.</p></div>

Q: How do I keep animals out of my pool heater?

• <div><p>Small animals, particularly rats and mice, like to burrow inside pool heaters. To keep them out, seal any entry points with caulk or steel wool. Then, place mothballs inside or around your pool heater. As a final measure of protection, you can cover the pool heater in hardware cloth or wood paneling to further block entry points.</p><p> </p></div>
