The Benefits of Above Ground Pools

 

Are you ready to invest in a pool, but not sure if an inground or above ground pool works best for you? Discover the highlights and long-term benefits of an above ground pool to see if it’s a better fit for both your family and your backyard. 

Easy Installation & Storage

One of the main benefits of an above ground pool is the easy installation process. Unlike in-ground pools, they don’t require any foundation work or damage to your backyard. Most above ground pools are made to be DIY-friendly, so you can have your backyard fun up and running in a single day. The same goes for closing your above ground pool- with easy detachable components and draining valves, your above ground pool can be taken down as easily as it was put up, and stored away in a shed, garage, or any designated area during the off-season, so you can have your backyard space back. 

No Winter Worries

With easy seasonal take down and storage, above ground pools provide zero worries when it comes to the winter season. In-ground pools underground plumbing can be damaged and cracked during the colder months, which may in turn into extra costs for repairing the damage. Above ground pools eliminate the stress of potential weather-caused expenses, leaving you stress-free during the winter season. 

Minimal Debris

Pool debris can take time to clean. If you live in a heavy, wooded area or are worried about the extra time it might take to clear out your pool, an above ground pool may be a better fit for you. Due to an in-ground pool being ground level, it’s easier for debris to blow into the pool area, causing daily cleanup. An above ground pool avoids this potential issue, preventing debris from easily flying into the pool from surrounding trees and terrain. 

Sustainable & Cost-Effective 

Compared to in-ground pools, above-ground pools operate using less electricity, providing a more sustainable purchase. This is due to a variety of factors, including smaller water volumes, energy-efficient pumps to be programmed at different speeds and times, and insulated sides retaining heat, causing less of a need for heating. 

Not only does an above ground pool save energy, but it also can save you money by not having to completely transform your backyard. In the state of Michigan, in-ground pools require a pool fence that measures at least four feet high. If a fence isn’t on your roster when attaining a new pool, an above-ground pool may be the best option for you.
