Above Ground (AG) Pool Gallery

[CarlD]

This is an older picture of my pool, and, yes, it IS A/G. But it looks the same...


This is looking at the back of the house--it's attached to our deck:



and this is the gate look from the back of the house.



I did all the design work on all the woodwork on the deck and rails, designed and laid out the foundation and acted as my own GC.

The decking around the pool is all hollow panels and water gets pumped through them. So it's a solar heated pool, and the circulating water keeps the deck from burning your feet. Credit for that goes to FantaSea, who built the basic pool and solar decking. It's a custom size: 16'x40' with a 5'6" deep section. They usually do 20'x40' and 16'x32', or 12'x40' for lapping.

Since it's all cedar, every picket had to be milled by me, the gate is my own design, mortised and tenoned because I couldn't STAND the idea of a diagonal on the gate. Even the sill plate under the gate is custom-made by me. It's GREAT at keeping your toes from getting bashed. In 4 years, nobody's have been bashed by it! It's all to BOCA and town codes and passed inspections with no problem.
