    Thanks again BTDG.
    Yep, the pool itself is considered an acceptable barrier (fence) as long as there's nothing close that can be used to climb in. The ladders have an auto closing door that covers the steps on the outside.
    I appreciate your insight especially the story about your bulging pool - that is exactly the king of problem I want to avoid.

    I guess it's possible, but I wouldn't recommend it LOL

    Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill libraries

    I bought the pool, it's in my garage. Now I need an installer.
    Thanks
