Justin Bieber has a inground pool

inground pools hold the heat better as the ground naturally acts as an insulator above ground pools have more area to loose heat eg side walls

Inground yes, Above ground....No

The first thing you should keep in mind is the possibility of corrosion and the buidup of ground water around the outside of the pool.

It would be the same as an inground pool need at least a two inch layer and let it dry 24 hours before installing the liner

Generally...no. In simplest terms, an above ground pool pump is a flooded suction pump, which means the water level must be higher than the pump for it to operate, and an inground pump has the ability to draw water up from a level lower than the pump. The engineering and structure of these two different types of pumps is what makes them work the way they do. This means that, in a typical installation, you could use an inground-specific pump on an above ground pool, but not an above ground pump on an inground pool with the water level below the pump.

To install the water return fitting above the ground pool, you have to switch off the source. After this you can then install the water.

They will most likely work, they just have to have the same specifications.

You install it underground...

It depends on what type of pool kit you are referring to. If you are looking for inground pools, no. If you are looking for above ground pools, yes. They have an above ground pool for $349.

In southern California the cost to install an above ground pool vary by size of the pool and the prep work needed to level the area and the cost of building materials like sand. Generally speaking, most pools cost between $800 and $1500 to have professionally installed. Pools with a deep end and pools partially buried in the ground will be substantially more.

An in ground pool and an above ground pool have difference maintenance requirements. You should start by researching the time and effort it would take to maintain them. Then make your decision based on your research.

Yes, I know some friends with an inground swimming pool and they have had it for quit some time now. I am pretty sure that they last more than an above ground.

Probably not going to be adequate.

A Longhouse is aove ground and a Wigwom is partially below ground both always with the roof above ground.

The walls of some above ground and some inground vinyl liner pool kits are made of aluminum.

Do not hesitate. Calla qualified electrician now.

To install an above ground pool you will have to level the ground where the pool will be placed. You should then add a layer of sand. You should lay out the bottom rails and connect them as shown in the directions next. Install the walls, uprights, and wall bars. The liner will be installed last.

Depends on alot of things per the customers wants and needs. However, the more obvious pros and cons: An inground pool is a permanent structure and therefor affects your taxes. An above ground is temporary and does not. Cost, inground is more expensive, although you can get really close to a inground price on some of the fancier above grounds. Above ground pools do not usually need extra fencing, where ingrounds are usually required to be fenced per Code. Most people who spring for the inground pool get a deep end, therefor increasing your water volume and increasing the amount of chemicals you need for upkeep. Inground, you have to winterize, blow out lines, have water pumped out, etc. Above ground you unhook your top hose, let water drain out. When it stops put two plugs in, unhook filter and etc and put them in the garage for the winter. Above ground you can take with you when you move. Check your local codes with regard to fencing. My local code requires a 6-foot high "non-climbable" enclosure for any pool with a depth of 18 inches or more.

Above ground pools are not as deep and less expensive. Also, If at any given time you don't want or need the pool any more, simply tear it down. That can't be said so easily about the inground pool. Around this area, an inground pool is not a selling feature for a home and doesn't add monetary value to the home. Just a few thoughts.
