5 Reasons You Should Install a Semi-Inground Pool
Semi-inground pools are a hybrid between an above-ground swimming pool and a completely in-ground swimming pool. This type of pool leans towards the style of an inground pool as it is a permanent fixture built on a property and requires all the same equipment as a fully in-ground pool. A partially inground swimming pool offers more to homeowners compared to other styles. If you’re trying to choose the right pool for your backyard, consider the benefits semi-inground pools provide compared to your other choices, from functionality to maintenance and pool supplies in Toronto. Whatever you decide, Seaway Pools & Hot Tubs builds all 3 types of swimming pools for homeowners and cottage go-ers in Southern Ontario.
Here are 5 things you should know when considering a semi-inground swimming pool in their backyard.
Enhanced Privacy
Your backyard is meant for your fun and enjoyment. It makes sense that you want to do so without worrying about being seen or heard by neighbours or passersby. A semi-inground pool with a high retaining wall adds privacy to your swimming experience and backyard. As you shop for pool supplies in Toronto, you can also find an expandable trellis from Seaway Pools & Hot tubs that can be hung along your fences for added privacy and a beautiful backdrop.
Stays Warm Easier
Since the water is partially submerged and raised, semi-inground swimming pools retain heat better than an inground pool where water is naturally cooled by the Earth. This means that you can spend a little less investing or replacing pool supplies in Toronto like natural gas heaters or even solar heaters. But because the swimming pool is still somewhat in the ground, you won’t be able to eliminate the water heater permanently.
Aesthetics
One of the biggest reasons homeowners opt for semi-inground pools is their visual appeal. You have more opportunities to customize, and designs are often jaw-dropping. Semi-inground pools enable more options for customization, allowing you to maximize the personalization of your swimming pool and your entire backyard. Choose from stones for your retaining walls that offer impressive height for water features like fountains and waterfalls, pool-adjacent gardens and accessories that above ground and inground pools can’t match.
Property Value
Because semi-inground pools require swimming pool contractors to both dig down and build up, the tools and equipment to finish a high-quality semi-inground pool typically require a higher investment than in-ground pools. However, the more impressive your backyard pool design, the more it adds to the value of your home, and a semi-inground pool essentially enables you to go all-in on your swimming pool, elevating your property value. If you’re concerned about pricing, you can work directly with the team at Seaway Pools & Hot Tubs to build a custom swimming pool that suits your budget and your backyard.
Entertaining
