I would love to know more details on installing the skimmer and chlorinator. Where did you find those items?

Sorry, it has been 3 years now and I no longer have the pool. So I don’t remember where I got my skimmer and Chlorinator. However you should be able to find them on eBay, Amazon or other online stores or your local pool supply store.

Hi, What is the use of grease near the seals?

I used Vaseline petroleum jelly to lube the seals which would make it easier to remove without damaging them when needed.

A bit dangerous with live electric wire above the pool perhaps?

Thanks for pointing that out bro! You got a good point! The wire/lighting was removed and relocated shortly after setup. kzitem.info/news/bejne/22h5nox8cWOnYH4

I wonder what is more: the cost of owner ship of this pool or traditional in ground pool?

That’s a good question! I have no idea because I never had an in ground pool. However one thing I know for sure is that the upfront cost for an in ground pool is more than this above ground pool.

I'm currently finishing the setup the same above ground pool right now. However, a previous house I owned came with an in-ground pool that I had to have repaired. The repairs were expensive (about 5k) because when I bought the house the pool was pretty much a large hole in the ground. Once the repairs were done the cost of ownership was just the cost of electricity for running the pump and the cost of clorine tabs to keep it clean. I would run the pump for a few hours a few times a day and I didn't notice a large increase to my electic bill. The pool could be closed for the winter on your own or you could pay someone 150 bucks to lower the water leavel, disconnect/drain the pump, and add chemicals to the pool for closing. There will be times when you may need to add water to the pool (a couple hundred gallons a year) to replace the water lost from closing the pool and from evaperotion. I suspect the same will the the same for the above ground pool. The big difference will come if/when you need repairs. My in-ground pool used heavier equipment when it came to the pump/filter. They can be pricy. Outside of my initial repairs for the pool it served me well for 3 years until I sold the house. However, I suspect any leaks, breaks to the waterlines, etc are going to mostly be underground and this will add to any cost of repairs to those systems. While this pool (the above ground pool) cost me a total of 1,500 bucks to purchase outright. Overall I think the largest expenses between the two will be the initial cost. My wife's co-worker, who also just purchased the same model pool, would like to eventually have an in-ground pool installed. The current quotes that they have are sitting between $20,000 to $30,000. Which I think is okay if you never plan on moving. Also, keep in mind that if you do decide/have to sell the house there are buyers that will immediately pass on a house with a pool. I had a couple of buyers that passed because my old house had a pool. But it was a sellers market and the house still sold quickly. Also, if the in-ground pool does get damaged it will turn off buyers. This is how I got such a good price on the house that I bought. But the insurance company was on me within a week of closing to do something about pool. They do not like pools that don't have water in them and will drop you unless you get it fixed or filled in. Side note: They also hate slides that ends in pools. Bottom line: Both are great. It just depends on how much you have to spend initially.
