20 years behind

For the last 40 years, my experience has been in energy efficient pools and spas in the in-ground side of the pool industry.  It wasn't until this past year that I became interested and exposed to Above Ground Pools. 


I must say that I am shocked and astounded by the lack of progress and advancement in the filtering, piping and pumping for above ground pools. It has been a "Back in Time" event for me. It seems that all the industry maturing, advancements, improvements and education got lost in the Above Ground Pool world. 


Please see the individual pages regarding what is now the industry standard and common practices for in-ground pools but is new to the Above Ground pool world


For first time pool owners, I call this "Next generation". 


Use next generation pool equipment on your first pool. 

This website is to show you the important aspects of installing the proper equipment on you first pool.
