    Default Above ground SWCG vs In-Ground SWCG

    Hello! In the process of purchasing a new AG pool, either30' or 33'. I've decided to go with a SWCG system, and wonderif there's any reason that I couldn't plumb in an SWCG intended for in-ground pools. Am I missing sometjing? Thanks!

    Yeah, and my understanding is that it's due to the possibility of corrosion from the presence of salt. I'm buying a good quality galvanized pool, so that should minimize most of the problems, but regardless this pool is just a temporary solution at the new house that I'm buying and moving into the first of July. I'll eventually be going in-ground, but that will likely be a year or two down the road. Thus my question, in trying to think ahead about equipment that I could purchase for this temporary pool that would also be able to be used on my future in-ground.

    they should function the same, regardless of above ground or inground. Some above ground models may come with a specialty 110 volt plug or barbed fittings, but other than that, it's basically the same.
