Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

If you don’t bond a pool, you risk electric shock for those walking around or swimming. Bonding creates safe pathways between the electricity needed to run the pool and metallic parts also necessary for the proper function of the pool. Once the pool is bonded, it’s ready for grounding, the second step in creating an electrically safe pool.

Certain pools serve as a middle ground between traditional swimming pools and hot tubs. The two main options are plunge pools and swim spas. A plunge pool (or cocktail pool) is smaller, but you can add spa-like elements such as heating and jets. A swim spa is more similar to a hot tub, but it produces a current that allows you to swim in place (similar to how a treadmill lets you run in place). 

You can spend less time and money on plunge pool maintenance since they are smaller than standard pools. These pools are easier to clean and maintain yourself than a swimming pool. But like any pool, you’ll need to clean the pool walls and floor, balance the chemicals, check the electrical equipment, make necessary repairs, etc.

DIY is possible for minor repairs like patching liners. Professional services handle structural and mechanical issues.

In most cases, late May or early June are the most popular times to open a pool, depending on your location. It’s a good idea to open your pool when the outdoor temperature sits consistently above 65 to 70 degrees (F). At this point, algae will begin to flourish in your water, so opening the pool and adding the proper chemicals will avoid excessive pool algae growth.
