6 Reasons Why Buying an Above Ground Pool is Worth It

As the weather begins to warm, nothing feels better than a refreshing dip in your own backyard pool. If you think this dream is too distant to come true this summer, we’re here to show you that it isn’t!

From a budget-friendly price, to easy, quick installation, above ground pools are worth the purchase! They offer some amazing perks that make them a favorite for families, first time pool/homeowners, and anyone looking to upgrade their outdoor space.

Here’s a list of 6 great reasons to purchase an above ground pool this summer!

1. How Much Do Above Ground Pools Cost? They Are Actually Very Budget-Friendly!

Above ground pools are the perfect way to cool off without a large investment. A wide range of styles and sizes are available, with prices starting as low as only $133 a month! This makes it easy to select an option that comfortably fits your backyard and your budget.

While some may be concerned about quality when purchasing a budget-friendly pool, you can be confident in your pool purchasing process when you choose a trusted high-quality brand like Blue Cascade or Radiant pools.

If you’re wondering where to start the process, stop by our Pool Design Center at our Amsterdam, NY location and we’ll help you build the perfect pool for your family!

2. Quick and Easy Installation

Above ground pools can be installed in a single day or over a weekend, meaning you can go from “just browsing” to relaxing in the water faster than you might expect.

The Alpin Haus team handles the entire installation process for you. All you need to do is choose the perfect spot in your backyard, and our team will take care of the rest.

We make the installation process as simple as possible! Here’s our process:

3. Family-Friendly, Safe Design

Pools are all about bringing people together, and above ground pools are the perfect option for family fun this summer.

The elevated walls provide a natural barrier, giving you some additional peace of mind when the kids are running around outside. Many models also offer secure ladders and lockable gates, making it easy to control access when the pool isn’t in use.

If you’re looking to have a safe, accessible, and fun space for kids and adults alike, an above ground pool is a great choice.

4. Simple Maintenance

Maintaining above ground pools is quite easy due to the simplicity of the systems included in our various models. These models come with easy-to-use vacuuming kits, maintenance kits, and a solar cover to keep your water warm. Check out the Above Ground Pool Install Package we provide at Alpin Haus!

If you ever need a hand when getting your pool prepped for the season, our Pool Service Team offers pump and filter repair, maintenance, cleaning, as well as FREE computerized water analysis.

5. Seasonal Flexibility

If you prefer a versatile backyard, an above ground pool won’t be getting in your way.

Our models are designed for seasonal use, so they can be easily winterized and closed up once the cold months come around.

Once you’re ready to open it back up, you can check out our Pool Opening Checklist to make sure everything is in order for the season!

6. You Can Customize & Design Your Pool for Your Lifestyle

Just because it’s above ground, certainly doesn’t mean it has to be basic.

Upgrading your pool’s style is easier than ever! Whether it’s a deck around the pool to get that “in-ground look”, or a simple string of LED lights for night-time swims, there are plenty of ways to keep it stylish.

But it doesn’t stop there, you could even try creating a resort-style lounge area by adding some patio furniture and tropical plants around your pool. If you need some inspiration for your deck decor, check out our 3 Tips for Buying New Patio Furniture!
