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.
Homeowners looking to add value to their house by creating an area to relax and play outdoors often choose to purchase a swimming pool. When choosing to install a swimming pool, homeowners are generally faced with two distinct options: in ground or above ground models. While both types have advantages and disadvantages, above ground pools are much easier to install and far less expensive than their in ground counterparts. These two advantages make pools of the above ground nature one of the best choices for kicking back and relaxing on a hot sunny day or serving as the centerpiece of a memorable family event.
Because above ground pools require minimal ground excavation for installation, many homeowners are able to install the pools themselves. One of the best features of these models is being able to build accessories like sun decks, porches, patios, or even water slides, long after the pool is installed. The pool area can literally be a work in progress, whereas, an in ground pool area must be almost completely finished prior to using the pool due to cleanliness and safety issues. Plus, since the pool is actually above grade, no additional safety precautions, like fences, may need to be erected for above ground units. Of course, always check with the local building permit and construction code enforcement office for particular laws governing pools, and it is also a great idea to consult the insurance agent of the property as well. In addition, there may also be property tax implications on in ground pools.
All in all, an above ground pool has all the wet and wild action of an in ground pool without the hassle of lengthy construction times and high costs. Since the pool is higher than grade rain runoff is not a problem, and the act of draining the pool is much easier in case major repairs need to be made. If the pool ever needs to be removed from the property, an above ground model will present much less of challenge as well. Taking all of these advantages in stride is a great way to see why many property owners choose to install above ground pools.
I think you are asking about above-ground, versus a concrete inground. In ground:PROS:Nice looking, more durable/not very suceptable to damage or UV detioration (except for ground shift). Last many years (30+, if maintained well and in good soil) CONS: Expenseive to build. Expensive to repair. Permanent. Ground shifting, as with clay soils, cn cause structural damage. You are stuck with the design/style you have. Above ground:PROS: Cost less. Easy to put up. Easy to take down. Easy/inexpensive to get the latest style/features CONS: Some people consider them tacky compared to inground. More subject to damage and UV deterioration. Do not last very many years(3-5) I have inground gunite pool. I like the look of it, but if I were starting from scratch I would probably opt for an above-ground pool. == == Pros: don't have to deal with walls cracking, easier to install and cheaper, easier to clean since it has a smooth surface, quicker to install. Cons: can't let your animals swim on it for they might scratch the liner, can be subject to puncture and locating it could be hard.
Doncaster vs oldam
Sounds like something is going on with the water vs the liner. Drain the pool to the sewer using a hose to protect your yard.
bottom I don't think top refers to the little leafy bits highest above the ground, but to the part of the tree above ground vs. the part below ground. Otherwise it's a question not even worth asking since the answer is obvious. Any opinions [question mark] I can end with ? or "there's something wrong with my answer".
Less water less chemicals ad if you are over 5 foot tall you can stand any where and keep breathing
I have been raise a round pools and worked on them for years. winterizing means draining ALL water out of pipes,pumps,filters and heaters. if water is left in anything it could freeze and break whatever it is in. I think it is easier just to run pool as normal actually less in winter for the fact you dont use as much chemical due to temp. you only have to worry about those below freezing nites and when it going to stay cold for a while. i live in houston, tx so we dont tend to freeze alot but it is safer to just run pools during the freezes vs. winterize for inground. if above groung pool yeah winterize put plugs in and store filter and pump in garage.
"Another View" There are benefits of each, design and feature wise there are some things you can do with gunite that you can't do with steel. Although some steel manufacturers are getting more sophisticated with regards to in pool stairs and other features. Mostly in my professional opinion it depends on where you are. In the northern climates where we see harsh winters and ground freezing, gunite can and will crack, causing sometimes expensive repairs. A steel wall vinyl lined pool avoides this as it's able to flex with the freezing. You should consult a few contractors in your area, ask their opinions and weigh all the benefits and disadvantages. Also trust your gut on which persons opinion may be better. "One View" Assuming this to be an in-ground pool as opposed to an upper floor or rooftop pool, gunite is, beyond a doubt, far superior. Steel is used rarely as the material of choice for an in-ground pool. However, of the millions of in-ground swimming pools in the USA, I have little doubt that many steel pools exist. Particularly, pools built during the pre-gunite era, i.e. before 1970, when the only alternatives where concrete (much more costly), or vinyl liners (slightly more costly but very limited in surface area). For the above reasons, a number of commercial in-ground steel pools were constructed, but very few residential pools. At this point in time, a pool constructed totally of steel would be the worst possible choice. END
