Pool Owners and Pool Builders Alike Love Fiberglass

Fiberglass pools are growing in popularity among homeowners and pool contractors for several reasons. At Orange County Pools & Spas, we carry a line of magnificent, pre-manufactured pools that have benefited our clients in The Hudson Valley in various ways including

  1. Simpler Installation and Maintenance
  2. Various Looks and Special Features
  3. Durable Construction
  4. Energy-Efficient

They are relatively affordable, easy and fast to install, and involve comparatively low maintenance. Fiberglass pools are manufactured off site and brought in by truck to place into the excavated site.

These pools come in all sorts of appealing shapes and sizes including the classic rectangle style, freeform, oval, kidney-shaped, and more. While the manufacturer makes each model with specific shapes and dimensions, don’t let the “pre-manufactured descriptor” trick you into thinking that fiberglass pools have no capacity for customization. 

You have options when it comes to the color of your fiberglass pool.  Perhaps you prefer a traditional light blue, modernized with dark-colored flecks to catch the eye. Or, opt for a greener look to play off your nearby vegetation. You can also draw inspiration from nature and go with a natural-looking beige/brown for a beach-like look. Or go WAY outside the norm with a trendy black and gray scheme that screams “21st-century pool!”

You can also incorporate a wide variety of features to reflect your personal taste and priorities including 

  • diving boards
  • tanning ledges
  • slides
  • water features
  • lighting effects
  • steps
  • And more!

The smooth, non-porous shell of fiberglass pools makes them resistant to algae growth. Additionally, the gel coat finish on the surface of the pool means that it is resistant to fading and staining. Furthermore, they’re made from a composite of fiberglass and resin, which makes them resistant to cracking, chipping, and other types of damage. This means that they will look great and last for many years. Fiberglass pools are, truly, a strong investment for your home.

And no. When you get a fiberglass pool from Orange County Pools & Spas, you won’t have to worry about it popping out of the ground in winter (read more on that below).

Our equipment is also friendly to homeowners who prioritize energy efficiency. We carry energy-efficient, high-performance pool heaters, pumps, and pool lighting to help make your pool even more sustainable.

All this means that with our equipment in your fiberglass pool, you can save on energy costs and have a more sustainable pool. What’s better than a pool built with your electric bills in mind?

Will a Fiberglass Pool Pop Out of the Ground in Cold Weather?

The ones we install won’t. They’re designed to withstand the effects of cold weather and will not pop out of the ground.

Fiberglass pools are perfect for New York and the surrounding areas where temperatures regularly dance around the freezing mark in winter. You’ll be happy to know that when the chill comes and goes over the years, the Fiberglass pools we install won’t crack and deteriorate as the ground freezes and thaws.

The manufacturing process of Imagine Pools, the line of fiberglass pools we carry, involves creating a mold of the pool and then filling it with a mixture of fiberglass and resin. This creates a strong, one-piece structure that is resistant to the expansion and contraction caused by changes in temperature.

Additionally, fiberglass pools are installed using a method called "shell installation" which involves digging a hole, lowering the prefabricated pool shell into the hole, and backfilling with gravel. The backfill material is added at the same rate as the water being used to fill the pool; this maintains the shape of the pool. This method ensures that the pool is properly supported and eliminates the potential for movement. Finally, there is a locking collar of concrete poured around the top of the pool to further prevent shifting and lifting. 

Furthermore, the smooth surface of a fiberglass pool also helps prevent soil erosion and water loss, which are usual culprits for a pool popping out of the ground. Therefore, these durable fiberglass pools won't pop out of the ground in cold weather. They are a reliable, long-lasting option for homeowners looking for a sturdy, low-maintenance inground pool.
