Aboveground pools are typically the least expensive types you can purchase. They are the summer-fun answer for those who don't want to make the larger commitment of an in-ground pool. If you're ready for a ton of backyard fun, but aren't quite ready for a permanent structure in your yard, then an aboveground may be the way to go.
Points to Ponder
* Inexpensive: Above-grounds are great for those looking for a relatively inexpensive way to provide years of backyard family entertainment. 
* Moveable soft wall only: If you move, you can take your pool with you, give it to a friend or even sell it. Or you can leave it as a benefit for the next owner of your home.  
* Quick to install grab a couple of handy neighbors and you can be hosting a pool party in just a couple of days. Pool Warehouse Soft wall pools can be installed by one person in less than 2 hours.

* Good for Small Lots: If getting a backhoe into your yard would be next-to-impossible, an aboveground can generally be carried in a kit to your yard and set up. 

 
Inground Swimming Pools

In-ground pools come in three varieties:  Vinyl-liner;  Fiberglass and Concrete.
The only pool with a Lifetime Transferable Warranty.  Polymer Wall Kits. Poolwarehouse original Most economical  way to get a bigger pool for less.  Free Shipping*. Special incentives for certain payments during the year.
The highest quality pool.  The Nations Leading Fiberglass Pool Company  Since 1958 . 25 year warranty 

In-ground pools are more expensive than Above Ground Pools, but they are also a permanent home improvement. They add aesthetic, as well as intrinsic, value to your home. And when it comes time to sell your house, an inground pool is generally more appealing to potential buyers.
Inground range from play pools with depths of 3-to-5 feet to diving pools with 3-8 Plus depths appropriate for the divers in your family. Before you purchase an inground pool, you need to think about how your family will use it. Do they like to play a lot of water sports? Then maybe a play pool with sports set-ups is the answer. Do they like to swim laps? Perhaps a rectangular design is best for you. Or do you have a combination of swimmers and splashers? How about an L-shaped pool so everyone is happy? Thinking about usage and then designing with those needs in mind is the key to building a pool that your entire family will be happy with for years to come.
Okay, let's assume you've decided how your family will use the pool and what your approximate budget is. Now, let's talk about your primary options in an inground pool.

 
Vinyl-Liner Inground Pools       In Ground Pool Kits


A vinyl-liner pool is furnished to the installer or customer in kit form (Polymer or Steel Walls). After excavation, the panel walls are bolted or fastened together and supported at the bottom by a concrete footing. The vinyl liner is spread over the interior of the pool and covers the excavated floor and paneled walls. It is connected to the top of the panel walls by a vinyl rib at the outside edge of the liner. Be sure to ask your liners generally have to be replaced in your area of the country. Construction time for vinyl-liner pools is typically one to three weeks.
 

Points to Ponder
 

* You can install a vinyl wall pool any where as long as you have a good excavation crew everything else can be completed by the pool owner or just subcontract out the rest.

* Weather: Vinyl-liner pools are popular across the untied States and around the world. Can be used in the extreme hot deserts to the coldest climates areas of the country. Draining them down and covering them until the spring can easily winterize these pools for the colder areas make winterizing the pool a snap. 


*Smooth Surface: The vinyl liner is smooth and nonporous just like the fiberglass, making stain removal easy and maintenance a breeze . Savings match fiberglass on operation costs (chemicals-etc.). 
*Pool Warehouse offers: Polymer wall swimming pool kits at a fraction of the cost of a Pool Builder. 
* Do-It-Your-self kits & Home Owners "Subcontracting": Build your dream pool. Pool Warehouse will supply you with a complete pool-kit, installation manual and 2 hour long video (3 complete installations on tape). All shipped out to your house in 7-14 days (Standard Pools). No shipping or tax*AZ. 

*We have the best equipment and pools today. So if you are looking for the highest quality swimming pool kit for a great price you have found it. Please read all information on the web site and choose your style of pool. Call or email your complete address, style and size of pool with the options you would like. We will fax or email you a contract-estimate for your pool.
 

What is the difference between Polymer and Steel:  The polymer pools are made of Hi-impact polystyrene resin. The popularity of the Polymer pool is growing by leaps and bounds because it will not rust and is stronger and smarter than a steel wall pool. Example of the industry at large: Cars where made of steel at one time and now are all Fiberglass and Polystyrene (polymer).   All boats use a form of Poly styrene, boats and pools have the same function keeping water separated.  That is why we offer a lifetime transferable warranty. 

 
Fiberglass Inground Pools:

A fiberglass pool is factory-manufactured and then installed in one piece in your back yard when your excavation is completed. 

Points to Ponder:
* Price: Fiberglass pools are generally more expensive to purchase than concrete inground pools, but can save you money over the life of the pool. This is because they  require fewer chemicals than concrete pools. You also avoid future re-plastering and liner replacement costs. 
* Maintenance: Unlike a plaster finish, a fiberglass shell does not change the chemistry of the water, so you often will use less acid. Because of the non-porous surface, you don't need to brush the pool nearly as often as a plaster-finished concrete pool. However, you typically do not need to brush a pebble-finish concrete pool as often as a plaster-finish pool, so when discussing this option with a dealer, be sure you are comparing apples to apples. 
* Installation: Once your yard has been excavated, the pool is delivered in one piece and installed. Construction time is generally 3-days to about two weeks. 
* Shock absorbent: What happens if the earth moves? Fiberglass has a shock-absorbing ability that allows it to flex up to 2 feet.

 

Other Things to Think About

Important laws regarding safety must be considered before choosing your new pool. Specific regulations vary with each community, so be sure you are clear about the letter of the law before installation begins.
There are myriad other options and accessories available to complete your backyard retreat. Once you've decided on the pool type and style best suited to your needs, be sure to ask about the following: 
* Covers: A pool cover can be a wonderful addition to your pool and/or spa area, and one of their main benefits can be increased safety. Covers come in many varieties and can extend the swimming season of your pool by several weeks by retaining the solar heat that is generated each day. Also, if you live in a highly wooded area, they can be used to keep leaves and other debris out of your pool. Many covers come in automatic or manual versions. 
*
* Heaters: Pool heaters come in many shapes and sizes. In milder climes, you can enjoy year-round swimming by adding a heater to your pool set-up. 
*
* Filters: There also are many types of pool filters designed to meet the particular needs of your pool. Your dealer or builder can help you choose the one right for you. 
*  
* Cleaners and Water Levelers: From automatic inground cleaning systems that you just "set and forget" to jazzy, high-tech pool vacs that literally climb your pool walls, there are a variety of systems available to help you keep your pool sparkling clean. If you're the type who likes to splash and dash, you'll certainly be interested in learning more about automatic water levelers that keep the water level in your pool at just the right setting.
