A. CONT. DETERMINE THE LOCATION OF YOUR POOL

2. Things to Avoid

Do not locate your pool near or on any of the following 

(Images 3a to 3c)

:

• Overhanging tree branches.

• Overhead wires and clotheslines.
 
• Buried pipes and wires. Contact your  gas, electric 
and telephone utilities to find buried pipes and wires 
before you dig.

• Areas with poor drainage.

• Grass, stones and roots. Grass will rot underneath the 
pool liner, and stones and roots will damage the pool 
liner.

• Areas recently treated with oil-based weed killers, 
chemicals or fertilizers.

3. Plan Ahead

• Will you be adding an adjacent deck later? 
Be sure to leave room.

•  Will you be using pool accessories or other applianc-
es that need electricity or gas? Locate your pool near 
these services or plan to have them installed later by a 
licensed contractor.

Important Note:

When locating the centre of the pool, be sure to take 
into consideration any structures (deck, patio, house) 
or relevant items (change rooms, gazebo, etc.) that the 
pool may need to line up with and ensure that the pool 
is in the most visual pleasing location for your property.
