As a kid I always wanted a pool but just didn't have the money but now as an adult I still don't have one and I'm pleases about that , if I got one it would have to be Solar heated so I could use it for longer and fully Auto clean , I might get a pool boy as well, noice, then maybe I'll have one (pool that is) |

I have a solar heated swimming pool, and would not recommend it. I think that gas heating is better. |

I live in fairly warm climate and find that most solar covers work quite well to heat the pool. I suppose it's a preference though, I like a pool to be a little cool as it's more refreshing. |

No here . . who would have imagined that being a pool owner could become a socially unacceptable thing . . with water restrictions looking set to become permanent and more harsh . .who will be able to fill and maintain a pool.  |

Good idea, only one problem...you need rain to fill it. |

Yeah, but if you live in a city, imagine all the harmful chemicals in the water, like the exhaust from cars, the factories, planes, etc. In Europe, the fumes were even worse at one stage, producing Acid Rain. This destroyed big parts of major forests like the Black Forest in Germany. |

These days tanks are set up so they let the initial downfall go down the drain because years ago bird poo especially from pigeons contaminated the water and people died from Staph. infections and other related poisonings from the poo. My sister was very very ill after getting Golden Staph that way, but she recovered. The water that goes into the tanks these days is a pure as you can get and I would rather drink it and swim in it than the chemically treated water from our taps. |
