All You Should Know About Quality Above-Ground Pools from GEZA
In South Africa, we have the ideal climate for swimming pools, and most families love spending time outdoors together and have fun without even having to leave the home. Traditionally, people have opted for in-ground pools, as they were perceived as more reliable and they add value to a property. But recently, a lot of high-quality, above-ground pools are being made by a variety of manufacturers. There are, of course, benefits associated with both types of swimming pools, but investing in a high-quality, above-ground pool provides the ideal solution for families who opt for a more affordable option when it comes to swimming pool options.
Installing an in-ground swimming pool can be time consuming and very expensive. High-quality, above-ground pools can be installed quickly and easily, and requires substantially less effort, time, and expense. Usually, an in-ground swimming pool has to be installed by experts, but quality above-ground pools now come in kit form and can often be installed by a homeowner. The best option, of course, is to have the swimming pool installed by an expert, but if the installation is too costly, it is possible to do it on a DYI basis.
Maintenance of quality above-ground pools is also easier to carry out because it is not submerged, and the pumps and other components are usually easier to access if anything goes wrong. Debris is also more likely to collect in an in-ground pool, making it difficult to keep it clean. Mowing the lawn around the pool, for instance, can cause grass clippings to blow into the water. Because above-ground swimming pools are elevated above ground level, this type of thing is much less likely to happen.
Above-ground pools also tend to come with covers that are easy to put on and remove, which helps to keep the pool extra clean during the windy season or when mowing the lawn. Little critters, such as frogs or rodents are also less likely to fall into the pool. No swimming pool is entirely safe at all times, but quality above-ground pools make it harder for small children to access. An above-ground pool generally needs a ladder to access the pool, and removing the ladder can prevent toddlers and small children from gaining access to the pool. The height of the pool makes it more difficult for people to accidentally fall into the water, and they are therefore a safer option than in-ground swimming pools.
Keep in mind, however, that not all above-ground pools are made equal, and that if you need a swimming pool that is easy to manage and will last a long time, it is best to invest a little extra in high-quality, above-ground swimming pools from a reputable supplier.
It is important to choose a supplier that specialises in their own range of above-ground pools and knows everything about the product. While most large retailers do sell different types of above-ground swimming pools, the best ones to get should come from a manufacturer or supplier that can provide all the parts and also do the installation and maintenance. They should also be able to service the pumps and other components, and provide information to the consumer on how to ensure that the swimming pool remains fully functional throughout the year.
Before you decide to purchase and install a quality above-ground pool, there are some things to consider. There has to be enough space for the pool to be installed with enough room to move around the pool. Usually, the pump and the filtration system are inserted below the pool, and there has to be enough room to access these when needed. Above-ground pools come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and this allows you to choose one that fits perfectly into your particular space. All you need is a flat area that is large enough to accommodate the pool.
In certain cases, municipal bylaws may apply, such as the fact that the pool is not allowed to be installed under a power line, or over a sewerage pipe, but if you purchase your quality above-ground pools from GEZA, we will be able to inform you of all the necessary requirements that apply to your property and the relevant installation.
