- Q: Do I need to fence my yard?
A: It depends on the requirements of your town. Please check with your town for specific zoning requirements.
- Q: What part of the installation am I responsible for?
A: You are responsible for knowing and following your town’s zoning requirements, obtaining a permit, providing reasonable access to the installation site, and for all aspects of the electrical wiring. If you need help finding an electrician, we would be happy to assist you.
- Q: How early can I have the pool installed?
A: It depends on your yard and the weather. If your yard is dry and you reserve your pool early, it can be installed as early as late April or early May.
- Q: Are there any alternatives to chlorine?
A: Yes! We have 2 great chlorine alternatives. Baquacil and Simple Blue are both low maintenance pool sanitizing systems.
- Q: What do you mean by “low maintenance”?
A: Chlorine in liquid, granular, or 1 inch tablet form, should be added every day. Baquacil and Simple Blue require only a weekly water check and are usually added only every 10-14 days.
- Q: How long should I run my filter?
A: Filters with single speed pumps should be run 8-12 hours per day, 7 days a week. Filters with 2 speed pumps should be run on low 24 hours per day, and are only required to run on high when vacuuming or adding water care products.
- Q: Do I have to cover my pool when I’m not using it?
A: This depends on your personal preference. In the summer, a solar cover will heat your pool and retain the heat. Solar covers also help to keep debris out of your pool, and save on chemical consumption. In the winter, we highly recommend that you cover your pool.
- Q: When I put my solar cover on my pool, do the bubbles go up or down?
A: The bubbles go down.
