American Marconi Wireless News - OneMain Financial: Pros and Cons of Above-Ground Pools

Pros of Above-Ground Pools

The fun times families can enjoy are one of the main advantages of having an above-ground pool. Aside from that, there are several additional practical advantages to having an above-ground pool.

• Affordability

Choosing an above-ground pool over an in-ground pool could save a homeowner tens of thousands of dollars. Many first-time pool owners choose an above-ground model for this reason. The cost could be paid in cash or covered bypool loans taken out by the homeowner.

• Easy to Install

Installing an above-ground pool is easier than excavating a yard and pouring a foundation for an in-ground pool. This means that removing the above-ground pool will be easier as well.

• Low Maintenance

It's not just the pool that's above ground. Pumping and drainage are also done on the surface, making maintenance a much simpler task. Cleaning out leaves and debris is also easier because above-ground pools are not as deep.

• Safer than In-Ground Pools

The depth of an above-ground pool is just a few feet and consistent across the entire pool. In-ground pools have a deep end, making them more dangerous, especially for homeowners with young children. Although any pool can be a danger to young children, who should always be supervised when using the pool, and to ensure that they don't gain access to the pool.

Cons of Above-Ground Pools

There are many benefits to having an above-ground pool, but there are also a few drawbacks homeowners should be aware of. Pools can be a significant investment. The drawbacks of having one should be carefully weighed against the advantages. Here are some potential downsides to having an above-ground pool.

• Durability

Above-ground pools are not as durable as in-ground pools. They may be more easily damaged and may require frequent repairs. Regular maintenance could prevent some of this, but homeowners should expect some wear and tear as the years go by.

• Property Value

An above-ground pool typically does not impact the property value of a home because it's not a permanent fixture.

The Bottom Line

Above-ground pools are often affordable, easy to install or take down, and typically require less maintenance, which could make them a good option for homeowners who are looking for a simple and straightforward option. It's important for homeowners to weigh the pros and cons carefully before deciding if an above-ground pool is the right choice for them.
