Question

What is cheaper and easier to maintain underground pool or above ground pool?

Answer 1

Above ground.

Answer 2

Above ground id say

Answer 3

Buying the pool:  Above Ground

Maintaining:  About the same;

It will be alot easier to put in pool cleaners, clean the pool out, etc, with an inground pool.

Also covering the pool wont be as difficult because its all one level.

Hope I helped!

Answer 4

Below ground, in part because the above ground u have to dump the water some where, it does not look as nice, seems to take up to much space depending on what size it is. It prob more hard to clean. The below ground its for life you cant remove it, but you can clean it a bit easier, and if you move it wont come with you. and you can decorate your back yard around it.

Answer 5

They  require about the same amount of cost as they require the same cleaning and chemicals.

It's probably cheaper to repair an above ground pool than an in ground pool however

Answer 6

It's definitely cheaper to get an above ground pool, but either way any kind of pool is going to be hard to maintain. I have an above ground pool just b/c it was cheaper, but now I wish I had gotten an underground pool. Plus you could possibly if you don't already have some sort of deck for the above ground pool!

Answer 7

a pool that is on the serface way more easyer.

Answer 8

It costs a lot to put a underground in but I'd have to say its easy to maintain than a above, not to mention that it looks better when trying to sell a house.

Answer 9

Above ground is cheaper, but.. idk about maintaining.

Answer 10

It costs a fair amount of money to clean an below ground pool clean.  Though in the long run it may be easier because of the filtration systems.  If you are able to get a below ground, then I would.  You can get ozonator filters and you wont have to use chemicals.  If you keep it covered when it's not in use that would also help.

Answer 11

The initial costs of an underground pool is much much higher.

Both are about the same to maintain...

Answer 12

above ground pool but those are less fun

Answer 13

the maintenance is the same for both.  You have to check ph balance of water and maintain proper chemicals etc.

Above ground is cheaper than in ground but in grounds are nicer

Answer 14

It depends on the size of the pool but i would say they are both the same because well there's not really a difference. It's just that one has a roof and one is out doors but one above would cost more maybe because you would have to get planning permission from the council or something.

Answer 15

umm well if you want them to stay in good condition then they will both have the same expenses in chemicals, an underground pool will cost more but an above ground pool will be a nucience to clean as you will have to climb up everytime.

Answer 16

if you have a built in pump to take out the water. then the below ground ones are easier to maintain but the above ground ones are a lot cheaper and are easier to maintain if you dont have a pump
