"I had a great experience with this company. From my first conversation with the owner, they were friendly, honest, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. They took the time to answer all of my questions and were very transparent throughout the process, which I really appreciated. I originally reached out because I needed help putting together a new above-ground pool, but a family member ended up doing the installation instead. Even though I didn't become a customer, I was impressed by the professionalism and excellent customer service. Based on my experience, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them or use them for future repairs when needed. Highly recommend"

"After a bit of a rocky start with some miscommunication around the timing of the pool opening, overall Tri-M has been great. They got the pool open and cleared up in just a few weeks. Despite my not being a weekly service customer as I perform these myself, Tri-M has been responsive to a few issues I've had this season. Tr-M is always easy to reach with a call - you'll get Joel or Barb and they are very responsive. I appreciated that they were willing to open/close and preform limited weekly services - many companies out here are not, which is why I hired Tri-M,. Will definitely be using Tri-M next season"

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

No, you shouldn’t be able to taste the salt at all since saltwater pools only contain about 10% of the salt you’d find in ocean water. Saltwater pools do create some chlorine, though, so you should still try not to drink the water.

For maximum effectiveness, you should keep your solar pool cover on whenever your pool isn’t in use. Covering the pool during the day allows the solar cover to use the sun’s rays to heat your pool, prevent evaporation and heat loss, and protect your pool from debris.

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.

A few factors influence the time it takes for a pool to heat up, including the size of your pool, the temperature outside, and how much direct sunlight is hitting the water in the pool. With these factors in mind, it takes 12 to 72 hours to raise the temperature in a pool by 20 degrees Fahrenheit.

While you can run a pool heater all day, it is advised only to run it during the day, as it is more energy efficient. At night, it is better to purchase a solar pool cover to retain the heat within the pool.

A 24-foot diameter pool is the most popular size for a round above ground model, while 15 by 30 feet is a common choice for oval-shaped pools. However, you'll find round sizes everywhere between 8 and 33 feet. Oval pools range up to 21 by 41 feet but can be customized to stretch much longer. Choosing the right size will come down to where you can level your yard and how many swimmers plan to use the pool at a given time.
