Why a Fiberglass Pool Could Be the Best Option for Your Inground Pool in Ulster County, NY
The most fulfilling outdoor living experience could happen by an inground pool in your Ulster County, NY, backyard; this feature could even become the anchor of your lifestyle. Choosing the right material for your inground pool can make a massive impact on the enjoyment of your swimming experiences. A fiberglass pool could be the right option for your inground pool, for the following reasons.
The Opportunity to Select a Design
Fiberglass pool manufacturing has several advantages over other inground pool materials. The nature of fiberglass allows for manufacturers to design and sell successful models of fiberglass pools that are already ready for installation. Albert Group offers a wide range of designs of gunite (concrete) pools and has been in that industry for a long time, and we also offer fiberglass pools because of their popularity and versatility. Check out the portfolio online and see which of the 56 designs and 7 colors of fiberglass pools and spas best suits your lifestyle.
Proven Quality
The manufacturing process of fiberglass pools ensures that the body of the pool is the highest quality. This controlled environment is the best place to build a pool since the pool shell can undergo rigorous testing before it is sold. By contrast, gunite and vinyl pools need to be tested on site after they have been installed.
Perfect Accessories and Features
You’ll likely want a pool that fits your lifestyle specifically. There are many accessories and features to choose from, and there are dozens of pool styles that offer a variety of features—so you will find options for the right pool for your family.
Quick Installation
All inground pools require excavation, of course, so this step of installing a pool cannot be avoided. Excavation can take several days between planning, permitting, and actual soil removal. With many types of pools, this is just the beginning of a lengthy construction process.
However, you are more likely able to enjoy a fiberglass pool much sooner than a vinyl or gunite pool. Since fiberglass pools are pre-fabricated, installation will be much quicker than other pools. The fiberglass pool shell will simply be lowered into the excavated hole. The difference in the timeline could be weeks, and you’d be surprised at how quickly those weeks go by, whether you’re swimming in your new pool or still watching the process from the kitchen window.
Long-Lasting Durability
The fiberglass used in your inground pool is stress-tested before it ever gets lowered into the ground in your backyard. The soil around your pool will expand and contract throughout all the freeze-thaw cycles. Over time, this incredible sustained pressure can crack some pools made of different materials. However, fiberglass is a strong and lightweight material that can bend slightly with the pressure and your pool will stay watertight.
Lower Energy Bills
The soil in your backyard is much less susceptible to the changes in air temperature. In fact, well into the summer, the soil just a few feet below the surface can remain particularly chilly. This soil temperature will greatly affect the water temperature of many types of pools. Fiberglass, however, is an insulation material and will keep your pool warmer. This can greatly reduce the amount of energy needed to keep swimming throughout the summer.
