In planning for the installation of a new Trilogy Pool, there are
many important considerations that must be evaluated in order to
achieve a functional, long-lasting and aesthetic addition to a home.
When choosing a location, consider the following:
1. Grade: Pools and decks are normally constructed on level ground.
Extreme variations in grade should be resolved before the excavation of
the pool begins. A relatively level and at location is preferred so time
and effort is not wasted on radical uctuations in grade.
2. Excavation Equipment Access and Pool Delivery: Determine the
most efcient route for equipment to enter and access the site. Also keep in mind that a well planned route can save
time and money by enabling multiple pieces of equipment to work in unison. For example: Coordinate the delivery of the
pool with the completion of the excavation and prepping of the hole. If a track excavator was used to prepare the site, it
may also be utilized to unload and set the pool. Finally, consider the placement of the equipment. If possible, position
the equipment so the pool can be unloaded and placed directly into the excavation.
3. Underground Utilities: Check with local authorities for the locations of underground water, gas, power and sewer lines.
4. Overhead Power Lines.
5. Local Building Codes: Determine the setbacks from property lines, easements, house footings, etc.
6. Water Drainage: Water should always drain away from the pool. Failure to keep ground water away from the exterior
of the pool may result in damage to the pool that is not covered under warranty.
7. Local Fencing Codes.
8. Location of Pool Equipment: Locate to within 20’ of pool.
9. Electrical Run for Pool Equipment.
10. Underground Water Conditions.
11. Exposure to Sunlight.
12. Surrounding Foliage.
13. View from Residence.
