INDOOR FIBERGLASS POOL CONS!
1: Price: This is a big one and there is no way around it. Indoor Fiberglass Pools are expensive and they keep getting more and more expensive by the day. The average starting price for a complete indoor fiberglass pool with the enclosure is north of $400,000.00 thousand. The price only goes up from there.
2: Time to Completion: In some cases it can take 6 months or longer to build the indoor fiberglass pool and the complete enclosure. This is along time to have your yard tore up and your home disturbed. Is it worth the wait?
3: Maintenance and Operation Costs: Indoor Pools costs a lot more than a traditional outdoor pool to keep up and running. With an indoor pool your pool equipment is running 24/7 so it wears out 2-3 times as fast as equipment that only runs for 3 to 4 months per year. Then you have the cost to heat the pool, heat and dehumidify the pool room as well. It all adds up to a healthy utility bill at the end of each month that is far higher than what you typically see with an outdoor pool.
MORAL OF THE STORY
With and Indoor Fiberglass Pool you simply get more of everything. More ability to use your pool, create memories, relax and or exercise if the mood strikes you. At the same time an indoor pool is incredibly expensive not only to purchase but to operate and maintain for years to come.
