Owning Your Own Inflatable Pool

Have you ever dreamt about owning your own pool, but couldn’t afford it? Well, then you might want to consider a cost-effective inflatable pool.

First of all, an inflatable pool is easy to set up.  All you have to do is to pump up the ring, add water, and enjoy!

Secondly, because our pools comprise of three reinforced layers of heavy-gauge plastic, they are extremely durable.  In addition to the high-grade material, the the inflatable top ring offers extra support to the pool.

 

Your child wishes to learn how to swim, but you can't afford a pool...

Cost should never be a factor in your child's development.  For under $300 USD and only 15 minutes of your time, you can set up a pool for your entire family!

 

Inflatable pools are easy to maintain

Of course you will have to maintain the pool water and keep it chlorinated.  However, the pool’s filtration pump minimizes your maintenance.  When you're not using the pool, simply put on the pool cover (to keep debris out of the water), and turn on the filter pump.

And because the pool is inflatable, it’s easy to set up or put away for the season.  The pool comes complete with a convenient drain plug to facilitate drainage.  The drain can also be connected to a garden hose, so that you can control where the water drains.


Pool installation experience

“Using a foot-pump, I installed the pool and filled it with water in 15 minutes…”

Fun and Games…

Swimming is not only exercise - it can be fun, too!  Children LOVE organized games. Organizing a neighborhood pool party for your children is easy, especially since your inflatable pool can be set up in minutes.  Need some ideas for organized games? [ Suggested pool games ]

Pool Safety- What you should know about inflatable pools

The safety measures required for permanent in-ground and above-ground pools should apply to portable inflatable pools. But the safety experts we contacted say they're concerned that consumers don't implement those measures. “The responsible thing to do is to make sure that pools are fenced,” said Mark Nichter, M.D., a member of the drowning-prevention committee of the National Safe Kids Campaign, a nonprofit advocacy group. “I want major manufacturers to issue warnings about the need for fencing.”

An official at the Association of Pool & Spa Professionals, a trade group, says that above-ground pools meeting voluntary industry standards do include such warnings. But he told us the standards don't apply to pools holding less than 36 inches of water.

What you can do:

  • Use the top cover to close the pool whenever it is unattended.

  • Follow your local code requirements. Also check CPSC publications 359 and 362; they're available at www.cpsc.gov.

  • Surround the pool with a fence that has a self-closing and self-latching gate with a lock. Also use a pool cover and alarm.

  • Constantly supervise children when they are in and around the pool.

 


Have you heard about Wind Spinners? You can hang them out on your back patio, and spend hours on end just watching them while you relax. It’s similar to a pinwheel, in that when the wind blows, the Wind Spinner rotates. And when the Wind Spinner rotates, it creates a fascinating optical illusion.
