• Call your town and determine their setback requirements from each property line, house, driveway and all around the proposed location. Then, find a copy of your site plan and determine just how much room you have.
• Is your yard fenced? EVERY yard should be fenced, and if this is not possible, fence your pool.
• If a round pool won’t fit, an oval pool is a good choice, but remember that oval pools cost more than round – more materials, greater price. Oval pools cost a bit more to install.
All pools come in different compositions, but the main ones are:
Galvanized Steel
Most affordable and most popular. If resin coated, will last 10-15 years.
Aluminum
Most reliable but more expensive.Won’t rust, but may oxidize. Will last 12-25 years.
Resin
Usually coupled with a metal wall. Most expensive due to look. Resin frame will outlast steel and aluminum. Best looking pool based on your individual taste.
