Thinking about getting myself an above ground pool.. Just wondering what things will be involved in installing it (heating/plumbing etc)..
The pool will be outside, around 20 metres from the back door..
Just requiring some basic information in installing, and also, a cost.
(Pool i have in mind is rather large.. 8.5m wide * 25m long * 1.2m tall)
200,000 litre capacity..
Thanks alot

I would check with the council first about water restrictions, it also depends where you live to, some places you will need a permit,
I had an above ground pool, this is what I did,
I found the most flattened area in my back yard,measured how big I would need the area,
I dug up the grass and leveled it out, stage by stage,
I then had sand delivered to place over the ground, first for softness then for stability and levelness, you also must level the sand out and make sure the sand is at right thickness,
I then set up the pool making sure that the area where the side holes on the pool would come out so that where the filter hoses come out would not be in the way of people getting in and out and also the filter pump is out of the way and easy connection to electricity for the pump.
I would recommend that you contact your pool supplier and get as much pricing as you can on all the things you will need for this size of pool, it can become very expensive and time consuming, also taking in consideration the amount of chlorine you will need and other chemicals to add to this water to make it safe to swim in,this site on you tube will give you lots of way to set up the pool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HN0rNXZvz… good luck
