Hi All! After learning so much about BBB here for our Intex bubble pool, I'm back to ask about fiberglass! We're going to do an install within the month (I hope) and getting our info all sorted.
1 installer will be out on Wed. and we're trying to line up at least 2 more for quotes and info. This installer seems good because I asked about backfilling and he said they would not use the dirty dirt from the excavation - they will use sand on a pea type gravel bed and will fill as the pool fills to ensure strength and positive setteling. From what I have been reading, this is one very major item to watch for and I was happy with this answer. My kids were happy when I mentioned we may have to dynamite if they run into tough granite ledging :lol: Of course they will be staying home from school that day if we blow the place up!
The one question I cannot find an answer to is this - which brand of fiberglass is best? We're looking at a San Juan or a CPC. I know warranties vary but I'm more interested to see if anyone knows about durability issues as well as who uses better/best composite materials. I hope this makes sense
Thanks!
Maggie
