6 Reasons to Install a Fiberglass Swimming Pool
You may know that Fiesta Pools and Spas builds gunite and vinyl liner pools. But did you know we also install fiberglass pools? If you’re curious about this type of pool, this article provides six reasons to install one in your backyard.
#1: Durability and Low Maintenance
Fiberglass pools are incredibly durable, and with proper maintenance, they can last up to 50 years or more.
Moreover, because you use fewer chemicals, your maintenance costs will be less than those of a traditional pool. This is because fiberglass pools don’t have a liner.
Poles, toys, and dog claws aren’t likely to damage the surface, making fiberglass a durable option.
#2: Smooth Surface
People often think fiberglass pools are rough. However, they are not. We already mentioned that fiberglass pools require little maintenance, and that’s because of their smooth and less porous surface.
The great thing is that the smooth surface of a fiberglass pool is not only kinder to feet and swimsuits, but it also prevents algae growth. With less algae growth comes lower chemical costs as well as slipping and safety issues.
You also won’t run into a wrinkling liner because fiberglass pools are smooth.
#3: Quick Install
We can install fiberglass pools quickly – sometimes in less than two weeks. Why? It’s because we install these pools in one piece.
The manufacturer sends us a shell, and once we dig the hole and place the equipment, we’re ready to drop your pool into the ground.
While the weather can sometimes cause delays, it generally isn’t as long a delay as with a gunite or vinyl liner pool because they require very specific weather conditions.
#4: No Liner or Resurfacing Needed
Another reason to consider a fiberglass pool is that you don’t need to replace a liner like you would with a vinyl liner pool.
In addition, you don’t need to resurface a fiberglass pool like you do a concrete pool.
So, you spend less money in the long run and don’t have to worry about the surface of your pool.
#5: Lower Lifetime Cost
Any inground pool you put in your backyard is a big investment. The good news is that it provides years of enjoyment for friends and family and often increases the value of your home, too.
Do remember, though, that there are also maintenance and chemical costs to consider with any type of pool. Again, there is good news with the fiberglass pool because the low maintenance costs mean your lifetime costs are lower than other types of pools.
#6: A Beautiful Option
Fiberglass pools come in many shapes, sizes, and colors. You are sure to find one that fits your needs and your budget.
You can choose your pool based on your own personal style. And, you can find a pool that fits seamlessly into your backyard whether it’s small, medium, or large.
Final Thoughts
Fiberglass pools are durable and cost-effective. They are also friendly on toes and paws (we can’t forget your furry friends!). With a smooth, non-slip surface, your pool stays cleaner, and people and pets are comfortable moving around.
Don’t forget – we can also add features like tanning ledges, zero-entry, and more to your fiberglass pool!
