does anyone here know if there are any companies that sell sliding boards designed for above ground pools? I had a customer ask and i didnt know of any. thanks
Is that binding law in your state?X-PertPool said:I was looking at the installation PDFs online. I don't think it's possible; at least not if you want to be legal. "The ANSI/NSPI-4 2007 standard for above ground pools prohibits the use of slides or diving boards on
above ground pools."
If it wasn't for that standard they would meet the requirements for the depth of the water though.
Many people have deep end AGP'S I imagine there are a lot of cannonballs and such done in then without harm. I don't think the slide is going to be worse.SebringDon said:Wouldn't a slide (or more precisely, the force of a person hitting the water) generate quite a bit of uneven pressure on the side walls? Would there be a chance that force is too great for an above-ground pool?

swimcmp said:That is why the ANSI/NSPI regs are written. There are too many ag pools out that don't have a sufficient depth to insure the safe entrance into the pool.
I assume it varies by slide. My pool is around 5' 8" deep and has a basic slide.msgtdan said:So what is considered a safe depth for a slide?
