Im poor, so I have to do above ground. I put the first one up about 6 or 7 years ago. I will tell you http://www.troublefreepool.com/calc.html is your friend. Saltwater is substantially less maintenance, and less problems with womens hair, sand filter is a must. Every couple years I have to dig a wider base and put up a bigger pool, 18 foot handles all the kids. I hate the pool, I dont swim in pools, Theyre a pain in the ass. But its the best investment Ive ever made. 50 percent of summer pictures are of pool time, friends and family are always over whether I want them to or not. I figure the next house will have to have a lot sufficient to dig out an in ground, heated pool. Every year I take ours down and bitch and moan that I wont be putting one back up, and every april I start prepping the limestone base.
going saltwater cuts your maintenance costs by about 75 percent. Youre an uber geek so youll really love the science behind it, and I assume youll end up engineering your own copper anodes and platinum plates. I see you actually enjoying the maintenance of a pool. If you like having kids around, which I do, its one of the best wastes of time and money there are On Wed, Jan 22, 2020 at 8:07 PM Ken Hohhof <af...@kwisp.com> wrote: > A friend posted this on Facebook yesterday, turns out it’s from 2012 but > seems relevant to the swimming pool discussion.
