Choosing a pool is no easy decision - Radiant Pools offers options for everyone, including aboveground, semi-inground and inground pools. So how do you decide which works best for you? Consider these four basic factors:
There is a significant price difference between most aboveground and inground options. Aboveground pools generally cost less than semi-inground and inground pools as the expense of ground preparation and other materials are much less.
It’s very important to consider landscape limitations when planning your backyard pool. Our dealers offer installation options and alternatives to address whatever challenges arise when choosing the right pool for your property.
Don't forget to consider the size and shape of your lot! Are there any local zoning limitations to consider? How will the pool look once installed? Will the pool be a pleasing addition to your backyard, or will it completely dominate your available space?
Each pool offers distinct features and benefits that can increase the value of your property. Aboveground pools can be dismantled, moved, and even resold if you desire. Semi-inground and inground pools are permanent additions to a space that can add lasting value to a property.
While these four considerations are a strong starting point, there’s much more you can learn by simply consulting an authorized Radiant Pool dealer.
Be sure to check with your local building code enforcement office to determine what can (and sometimes cannot) be added to your property. Each township, borough or county will likely have restrictions on proximity to property lines, utilities, safety or zoning restrictions, and even mandatory green ordinances that could limit the size or style of your swimming pool. Knowing what your locality allows will help you define limits for your new swimming pool.
Whether it’s on our website, in a showroom, or via literature and videos provided by a swimming pool contractor, there’s never been more information available about swimming pools and swimming pool installation. Take the time to familiarize yourself with the styles of pools and options available to you, the maintenance associated with those pools, and the general process of pool installation.
Swimming pools are constructed on your property. Installing a Radiant Pool can be a quick and easy DIY job as with the Metric Series Round pool or a custom inground building project. As such, the degree of expertise and experience of your swimming pool supplier and contractor is absolutely essential. Be sure to check references by calling or visiting previous customers, and ask questions about your particular project. It’s your investment. Reputable pool contractors and pool suppliers understand that and should take the time to answer all your questions. Radiant Pools offers tech support to all its dealers.
Remember, the only truly bad question is the one that goes unasked. The amount of time you invest now in preparing to purchase a pool is returned to you over and over again each time you take a swim. It’s worth the longterm peace of mind so you can simply relax and enjoy your pool.
