Above ground Swimming Pools offer many great benefits to families. This is one of the best activities for providing quality time together during warm weather months. Here is a guide to help you when you are installing an above ground swimming pool at your home.
Step 1. The first thing that you must do when installing an above ground swimming pool is to prepare the area you have designated for your new pool to be installed. The ground where your above ground swimming pool is going to be installed must be level. This is very important to the outcome of your pool. Measure out the location and dig the area approximately six to twelve inches deep.
Step 2. Fill this area with a three inch layer of sand. The sand will help to cradle your liner of the pool and helps to eliminate animals from burrowing under your liner. If you want to use a protective pad, this is the point that you must lay it down also. One product many pool owners use is Gorilla pad. This is a special high density woven fabric that will protect your pool liner from grass, nut grass, weeds, and rocks. This padding will also add years to your pool and liner.
Step 3. Carefully read the manufacturer’s instructions concerning the installation of your new above ground swimming pool. According to manufacturer’s recommendations, assemble the support track for the outside walls of the pool. If you plan on using coving to help reduce corrosion damage to your pool, this is when you will want to install it.
Step 4. Set up the walls and supports for your above ground swimming pool according to manufacturer’s instructions for your specific swimming pool model.
Step 5. You will need assistance to install the vinyl liner that needs to be inserted into your pool wall. If you allow your liner to heat up in the sun while you are completing the previous steps, this will allow your liner to have extra give and make the job of installing it much easier. Smooth the liner out and attach it to the sides of the pool.
Step 6. Begin filling your above ground swimming pool with water. Carefully inspect the liner for any bunching or sagging that may occur throughout the filling process. When you pool is about half way to two thirds filled, begin the water maintenance process with your chemicals.
Step 7. Install a fence and alarm system for added protection when your pool is completely constructed.

Above-Ground Swimming Pools: The Economical Alternative to In-Ground Pools?
Once you have decided to add a swimming pool to your home, the next thing to decide is whether or not to install an above-ground swimming pool or have an in-ground swimming pool built. There are many things to consider when making this decision, the most important of which are cost and how the pool will affect the equity in your home. If the thought of spending upwards of $20,000 or more to install an in-ground swimming pool on your property is keeping you from having a pool at all, then it may be in your best interest to think about installing an above-ground swimming pool. Above-ground pools are not only considerably cheaper to buy, install and maintain, but they also can be made to look just as appealing as an in-ground pool. With the proper installation and optional decking, you can turn your back yard into a welcoming oasis for optimum entertaining in the summer months. An above-ground swimming pool, even a deluxe model, will only set you back a few thousand dollars, a fraction of what you could ultimately spend on building an in-ground swimming pool, after you take into consideration the excavation and landscaping costs to ready the ground for the construction of the pool, not to mention plumbing and electrical costs, building permits, etc. Most municipalities will allow you to purchase and erect an above-ground swimming pool without obtaining a building permit, and because the pool is set above-ground in most cases, there are no excavation fees associated with the construction. When it comes to home equity, the county tax assessor’s office for the area in which you reside determines whether or not an above-ground swimming pool adds value to the property. While in-ground swimming pools are a sure guarantee that your home equity will rise considerably, in many cases, above-ground pools will not add value to the property, per se. However, that is not to say that if and when you decide to sell your property, you can’t ask a higher price for your home taking into consideration that there is a pool on site, regardless of the fact it is an above-ground pool.
