Question on enclosing an inground pool...Anyone know about this??

[hoogie]

I did an enclosed pool in my last house. Used a galvanized metal frame from a company called versatube. You can buy the frame only. Then used triple wall bronze polycarbonate sheets for the roof. Had a better snow load rating than the roof of my house in MA. The sides were only meant to be temporary but ended up being semi-permanent but was a twin wall poly something greenhouse covering. The building never had much of a condensation problem that a couple of windows didn't take care of. It was nice to be able to use the pool from march to december. We heated it also but only at the start and end of the season. Could have kept it open year round but it was costly to heat when it was real cold.

Here's a picture before we put some windows in.

My IG pool is enclosed. I didn't put it up, I bought the house with the pool, it was already enclosed. The label on the enclosure reads 'Hansen Weather Port'. I came up with two websites for it if that helps any (found some papers that came with the house). They are www.weatherport.com and www.globalsheltersinc.com

It seems like a good enclosure. I don't have anything to compare it with though.

I do not know what it cost, or how difficult it was to put up. I was told that it can be taken down and put back up with the included scaffolding. I have no plans on testing that.

Just another place to look while researching your enclosure.
