    How deep is the water? -basic question

    If we get a 52" high pool, how deep can we expect the water to be? I'm guessing it would be 46" or could it be deeper than that? Thanks!

    Oh... to do... to do...

    Thank you so much for all the tips!! I have my heart set on the 30' pool, but I'm not so sure it's going to happen. We have underground electric going to the house, which looks like it's going to limit our pool size. I'm going to have to get it marked so we can see exactly where the electric...

    Oh... to do... to do...

    Well, we were given a 15 x 30 Lomart that is 15-years old. We may not be installing it. The pool is 48" and we were planning on putting in a deep end, but the installer won't move the straps... they will only put in a tiny deep end that isn't even worth it. Then tonight my son and I had started...

    Free pool / Too much rust?

    That's what I was thinking too, elwood. Everyone, let me know what you think of this RustOleum "Rust Reformer." http://rustoleum.com/CBGProduct.asp?pid=40 It is supposed to stop rust and prevent it from progressing. I'm thinking about using this followed by a matching color paint (not sure...

    Free pool / Too much rust?

    Hi everyone, We are being given a 15 x 30 Lomart that is about 12 years old. We have most of the pool at our house... my husband is still working on taking it down at his friends house. I am posting some pictures below of some rust. Before we pay for installation I want to make sure that there...

    Pool placement in the yard

    Yep, that's exactly what we are going to do. The tree farther from the pool needs a good trimming and needs a good dose of Jobe's tree spikes. The tree on the left definitely has to go. It would only be 2ft from the pool. It appears to have wilt and we were going to try to save it, so this isn't...

    Pool placement in the yard

    We are getting the pool installed and that includes the electric! So, we'll only be trenching for the solar and that won't be right away. My husband and I spent the evening in the yard with the tape measure and settled on a spot for the pool. It will be at least 10' away from the house. 2' away...

    Pool placement in the yard

    They do have a fence law that is waived if the sides of the pool are at least 48" high, which ours are. I should have made sure to specify that this is an above ground pool. I'm sure there are a few in-ground pool around here... but the majority are above ground. The pool that we are getting...
