Who should you hire to design a pool?

• <div><p>A pool builder can advise you on the best design for your property and vision, and can walk you through the process from design to a swim-ready pool. Knowing which <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-to-ask-pool-contractor.htm">questions to ask a pool builder</a> can help ensure you choose the right person for the job.</p></div>

Can I partially bury an above ground pool?

• <div><p>Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.</p></div>

Does chlorine kill frogs?

• <div><p>Because frogs require fresh water for survival, they can die from repeated exposure to swimming pool chemicals. Chlorine dehydrates frogs, which can lead to their deaths. To ensure frogs don’t hang out in your pool for long periods, safely remove them once you spot them in your pool and install a frog log so they can easily hop out on their own.</p></div>

Q: What’s the least expensive way to fill a pool with water?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll save money by filling your pool by hose rather than water delivery. Since water delivery includes delivery fees and filling the pool, the savings between the two can be a difference of up to several hundred dollars. Generally, using your hose costs $26 to $70 less per 1,000 gallons than using water delivery.</p></div>

Q: My pool has a sand filter. Can I still convert to saltwater?

• <div><p>Yes, you can absolutely use a sand filter with a saltwater pool, but you&rsquo;ll have to make sure you have the right grade of sand to catch smaller particles, just like in a standard pool. To choose the right pool filter, consider the degree of filtration you&rsquo;ll need. Cartridge or diatomaceous earth filters can remove smaller particles, so they&rsquo;re better suited for a less chlorinated saltwater pool.</p></div>
