You folks are very lucky to live in such warm weather in the US in the first place! No point in investing in those over here.
The welded aluminium would be good too.
Hello from the UK! Just joining as recently finished constructing a new pool in my back garden (rare over here). Took me just under a year from start to finish and it's heated by a log burner too!
Can't believe there are examples of people inviting themselves over! Crikey. I get along well with my neighbours and given its a recent build, would not mind letting them use it occasionally if we were in. Might hold a beer and bbq day and get everyone round!
