Summer brings warm weather. One of the best ways to beat the heat is through the use of above ground pools.
It will cost you much less to install an above ground pool than it will to have an in ground pool installed. Above ground pools can be self installed while in ground pools will require hiring a professional for the installation.
There is some initial prep work that will need to be done regardless of the type of above ground pool you choose. The area where you will install the pool should be free of stones other foreign objects. A layer of sand will help to protect the pool from cuts and rips. For the above ground pool with metal walls you will need extra sand to form a cove around the inside of the wall. Without the cove the liner can become damaged and allow all the water to leak from your pool.
For easiest setup, choose one of the inflatable ring pools. There are no walls or supports to assemble. Just inflate the ring and fill with water. This pool practically sets its self up. These pools are of limited size range.
The oldest style above ground pool is the metal sided pool. These pools are quite sturdy and durable. They can last for many years with proper care. The plastic liner keeps the water in the pool and can be replaced if necessary. Pools with metal sides can be much larger than the inflatable ring pools.
For ease of setup like an inflatable ring pool but a larger size like the metal sided pool, try a pool with a PVC frame. These pools do not require the time of setting up a metal pool, and have the heavier liner used in the ring pool. These pools can be as large as most metal pools.
Your above ground pool will need a filtering system. Many owners prefer a sand filter to the paper filters common with pools today. While more expensive, they do not require daily cleaning like the paper filters and can be back-flushed in needed.
Salt systems are becoming very popular ways to control algae and other contaminates in the pool. They are just as effective as chlorine, but the chemicals are much more stable, do not bleach clothing and less expensive. As an added advantage, salt systems will not burn your eyes. The salt is very mild and will not harm clothing either.
