Pool Installation Information
Pool installation requires a consultation with Vision Aquatics to determine the pools size, weight, excavation dimensions, footprint medium and delivery methods. Vision Aquatics pools can be installed fully or partially in-ground and backfilled or completely above ground. However, this information needs to be determined prior to manufacturing to ensure structural reinforcement. Additionally, the installed pool must sit on a level, engineered slab specially designed to support the pools actual weight.
Vision Aquatics construction specialists work to ensure that the installation of any Vision Aquatics pool is a simple process for both the clients architect and contractor. Site specific drawings and detailed pool elevation drawings are essential tools for a cost-effective installation. Vision Aquatics on-site consulting is available upon request. All Vision Aquatics pools are manufactured with fill line outlet and overflow protection inlets for optimal waterline maintenance.
Construction Management
Formal consultations are available at any point during the planning process through Vision Aquatics Construction Management Department.
