ReadyPool delivers the ultimate shipping container pool designed for every landscape imaginable

The pool can be used as an above-ground pool, in-ground pool, or partially in-ground pool.

If the pool is fully above ground it is fully plug and play.  All it needs is to be filled and connected to a 115v supply.

If the pool is fully in-ground, the equipment pad needs to be relocated from under the sun bench in the container to an above ground location.  The plumbing and electrical connections then need to be extended to connect the two.  

If the pool is partially in-ground, and the equipment will be above the water table, it may be possible to leave the equipment under the sun shelf.  Please call to discuss.

This is site dependent as different existing grades can support different weights.

When filled, the pool weighs about 9 tons.

9 tons spread across the whole base of the pool gives a pressure of less than 1 pound per square inch (PSI).  For comparison, a car exerts about 25 – 40 PSI, an average human in flat shoes is 2.5 PSI, and a semi can be up to 115 PSI, an ATV is 2 PSI and an Abrams Tank is 15 PSI

While it may be that if you have well compacted soil the pool could just sit on the ground, we recommend that the pool be set on 4” of compacted gravel.   This allows water to drain away from the pool and will extend its life, and also ensures the base is actually level and flat.

If the pool is being installed in-ground, then a compacted gravel base must be supplied.  It is needed to ensure water can drain away from the base of the pool when it is being drained down, and it also provides good stability to the base.  (We also recommend that the backfill is done with gravel rather than sand as that allows water to drain away faster, plus is doesn’t shift when wet which can’t be said for sand.)

Customers should check with their installer or with their permit authority to learn of any requirements that may pertain to their site.  Call us for advice if needed.

We deliver to the delivery address, and location, specified in the contract. 

The delivery company is only responsible to deliver the pool – they are not installers, nor can they place a pool in a precise location.  The location has to be at the front of the property and somewhere that the delivery truck can easily get to and unload.

Customers are responsible for getting the pool from its delivery location to its final location.  Call us to discuss your requirements.

The empty pool weighs about 2.7 tons.

It has 4 corner castings – one on each bottom corner – that can be used for moving and lifting the container.    

Usually the pool is simply lifted into place using a crane and standard hardware.  Special brackets and fittings exist that allow wheels to be fitted allowing the pool to maneuvered like a trailer if sufficient space exists to allow that.

The site location and layout usually dictate the method by which the installation should be done.  Feel free to call if you have questions or need any help.

The pool needs a 115 volt, 30 Amp supply.  It should be on a dedicated, ground fault protected circuit.

It costs $29,995 for the pool and all equipment. 

It comes with:  LED bubbler, pool light, skimmer, vacuum port, 2 returns, 2 suction lines.  

The pool has a pump, filter and all valves – installed and tested.

It is controlled manually, or by an app that runs on android or iPhone.

We strive to have pools in stock and ready to ship within a couple of days of receiving payment.  They are delivered by truck in the USA, so depending on where

Once the site is prepared for the pool, it is usually installed in a few hours.

Depending on whether the pool will be above-ground or in-ground, the site will have to be prepared and a base created to put the pool on.  With that done it can be set in place.

As soon as the pool is in place, it can be filled up and started up.  That means that as soon as there is water in it, you can start swimming – even if you still need to put a deck area around it, build out an outdoor kitchen or dress its sides.

At this time we do not.  The ReadyPool comes in white – and here is why.

UV rays from the sun tend to cause fading of color over the years – which is why the fiberglass on most boats is white.

When you add in the chemicals (notably chlorine and acid) required to maintain proper pool chemistry, and allow for some occasional over enthusiasm in applying them (like using way too much shock treatment after letting the pool go green) the surface really gets tested.  Colors can fade fast.

In a previous life our main technician resurfaced fiberglass pools, and every non white pool he was called out to showed severe fading.  Pools could be resurfaced with any color – but never with a warranty.  

But apart from all that, white is a perfect color for a pool.  If it’s a blue sky day, the pool appears blue.  If it’s overcast, stormy and grey, the pool mirrors that.  If the chemistry gets behind, one can instantly see and correct it before it develops into anything major.  And if the interior is somehow damaged, it is quick and simple to repair and re-touch.

Finally, in the event you really do want to change the pool color, and are prepared to re-coat it every few years, we can provide you with instructions on how to do it and what to use.  As long as you follow the instructions you will not void the warranty of the underlying structure.
