2016/7/21 15:22:07


Swimming pools are made differently. There are pools that can cater a few people and swimming pools that can cater a hundred. If you plan to have a swimming pool, it is better that you know what pool suits the way you want your pool to be.

We have 2 types of swimming pools in the market. We have an aboveground and inground pool. Both of these pools have different capabilities when it comes to composition, space, shape and range. However, both types have the same structure needed in creating a swimming pool, what's different is the pool's composition, goal, shape and range it requires when it's created.

If you have a big space or lot, you can opt for an inground pool. Inground pools are better if the pool usage isn't just for family use. Inground pools are typically deep. Its depth can reach until 8 feet or more. It is mostly made of cement and its composition should be high-end. Based from the name, inground pools are usually submerged in the ground. In making an inground pool, one is required to have man and machine power in making one. Thus, inground pool is much expensive than above ground pools. You can have any type of space and size when planning to have an inground pool.

When it comes to aboveground pools, 3-4 man power can already create one. Aboveground pools are easy to install and are very affordable. For this type of pool, no one needs to do a lot of digging as the pool is just situated above ground. What is most important in installing an above ground pool is to assure that the flooring has no sods on it. The flooring is the most important element in having an aboveground pool. The depths of an aboveground pool are typically around 5-6 feet. The common wall used for aboveground pools is vinyl. Vinyl walls are easy to install and clean. Aboveground pool is appropriate for small families who want to enjoy swimming. Aboveground pools does not require a huge space as this is only compatible around 5-6 people. Space, size and shape are limited if you install an aboveground pool. The shapes you can setup are either oval or round.

Both inground and aboveground pools still require cleaning. Whatever type of pool you install, you should and will need to maintain your pool's cleanliness. The requirement for pool cleaners are not quite the same but has a bit of similarities. Inground pools require automatic pool cleaners which are subdivided into 3 classifications. We have suction, pressure and robotic cleaners available for inground pools. Aboveground pools require the like but there is more than automatic cleaners for you to maintain, clean and sanitized pool. Some of the things you still would need to have are PH solution, water testing kit, and a net rod. These should help you maintain a clean pool.

Therefore, if you want to install a swimming pool, it is better that you know what type of pool can be installed in your house's lot. You also should consider your budget and the usage of the pool to determine if you need to have an inground or aboveground pool.
