Criteria for Selection of a Pool (1)

1
Criteria for selection of a pool (Above Ground
Pools vs Inground Pools)
2
Cost
The cost components of an inground pool are the
cost of pool, landscaping, lighting, decking,
etc. Cost factors of an above ground pool is the
price of the pool, the kit itself and
installation cost. You should compare the costs
of both before selecting one.
3
Size
Both above ground and inground pools can be of
similar sizes. However, an above ground pool has
limitations on the depth whereas inground pools
are available in greater depths.
4
Maintenance
Maintaining both types of pools requires equal
efforts. Both warrant skimming of surface water
to clear the debris, testing and treating of
water, etc.
5
Life-span
An average above ground pool has a life span of
7-15 years if taken care of. In the case of an
inground pool, the lifespan is dependent on the
material of construction.
