    Shopping List for a 1st time Pool Factory SWG ABP?

    ooooh those stairs look great! Is it safe to presume that you or another very skilled woodworker built them and they weren't store bought?

    Haha. Trust me, I'm cheap too. My husband totally hates that I've gone down this rabbit hole. And him finding out that I found this community to help me get the answer.... Haha. He's going to get a shock when I finally check out my shopping cart. ;) Interesting about the inspections....They said...

    Yea. We're looking at the wedding cake stairs too. My noncreative mind just didn't realize that I could just use a small stool. Haha. I clearly am thinking too hard about all this and don't have enough coffee to see this simple solution. Does your stairs move when it's in there, or do you have...

    Will look into the filters for my township! We're definitely going to look into a solar blanket. But did you get a heater? I've been told to test it for a season prior to committing to it, but wanted to get an census from the neighbors. I'm getting a pool compliant fence around the whole...

    ETA: Never mind. I found the item to add to my cart. Thanks! Are bead receivers part of the pool or is that a separate purchase?

    WAITTTT! Hard pause. Can the pool last 15-20 years semi-inground? This changes things. We haven't figured out if this is our forever home... but we were worried if the pool was only going to last 5-10 years. We didn't want the pool to hold up inspections or whatnot, and if we build the deck...

    Gotcha. I'll look into both the cartridge filters, especially if you're telling me that it's less work. But I'll definitely look into that. When I talked to the township they didn't say anything about filters... so I might see if that's okay. In terms of liner, I was thinking about splurging...

    Thanks so much! Sorry for the late reply! I'm definitely now trying to reason with my husband to splurge for 3 extra feet as well as the all resin, given that I'm dropping it in so deep. Is it just me or have you also found that it's also absurdly hard to find someone to do a one-stop-shop for...

    Hey hey! My two left feet are paralleled with my fingers needed to figure out her lefts and rights for the lefty loosey and righty tighty. Do you have any recommendations for installers? However, I'm much further south in Highstown. I've reached out on Angie's list, and local Facebook groups...

    Good afternoon all! I'm located out in NJ, hoping to get an semi-inground pool prior to the summer season. I'm eying the 24'x52" Saltwater 5000 Round Pool from The Pool Factory. I've read a bunch of posts here and it looks like it's been a fairly reputable vendor. I'm hoping to not splurge a...
