Maintenance
Although modern equipment makes maintenance easy, weekly cleanings and seasonal closings are necessary to preserve the life of your pool.

Local codes
Be sure to check your local building restrictions to determine how far your pool needs to be from field lines and septic tanks.

Space
Above ground pools range in size from the smallest 15' circle to an enormous 18'x36' oval.

Insurance
Before building, talk to your insurance agent to find out about additional coverage needed for a new pool.

Taxes
Ask local taxing authorities about possible property tax assessment increases so that you'll know what to expect.
