What to consider when buying a pool

4 Important thing to consider when choosing the right pool for you

What do you want your pool to add to your lifestyle?

Ongoing costs and effort We all buy pools for different reasons; for some it’s the idea of spending more time together as a family, for others it’s about creating a relaxing and enjoyable space at home; or maybe fitness and health. Whatever your motivation, our experts can help ensure you spend more time enjoying your investment and less time looking after it.

Ongoing costs and effort

Owning and maintaining your pool doesn't have to be a big effort or a costly exercise. Most modern fibreglass pools require very little long term maintenance to keep them looking sharp over the years.

By planning carefully at the start, you can make daily life as a pool owner easier too. With smart choices you can significantly reduce electricity consumption and chemical usage. Our in-floor circulation and cleaning system (which is exclusive to Compass Pools) take things a step further by removing the need for manual cleaning or any additional cleaning equipment. Make sure you seek advice on the best way to configure your pool so that its simple to look after.

What will be important to you in the long run?

Buying a pool can be an exciting experience with all kinds of fun decisions to make. In the beginning, aspects like shape, size, colour and landscape design are a huge importance. It pays to think about what will affect your enjoyment of your pool in two, five or even ten years from now.

Added value to your home.

If your are planning on selling your house in the future, make sure you think about how your new pool will impact on that sale when the time comes.
