Myth #3:
Fiberglass pools pop out of the ground.
TRUTH:
A Crystal Palace fiberglass pools will never pop out of the ground if it is properly installed. This is because our fiberglass pools should always be filled with water and the surrounding concrete engulfs the pool’s outer lip, making it impossible for the pool to move unless the concrete moves with it. If any type of pool is installed in an area with a high water table, it is the responsibility of the builder to properly install and safeguard the pool against possible damage due to the high ground water whether it is a fiberglass, vinyl lined or concrete pool.

Fiberglass Pool Myth #2
MYTH #2:
Fiberglass pools only work in warm climates.
TRUTH:
It is an accepted fact in the swimming pool industry that fiberglass has the ability to “flex” due to its incredible tensile strength, much more so then any other type of pool (i.e. concrete). When someone is concerned about freeze conditions having an adverse effect on fiberglass, they are forgetting that when the water in the pool freezes is expands in an upward direction which has no barriers. The simple fact is that Crystal Palace Pools has never had one customer sustain any damage to the fiberglass shell due to freezing weather conditions.

Fiberglass Pool Myth #1
MYTH #1:
Fiberglass pools look cheap.
TRUTH:
If someone had stated this many years ago, we might have to agree with them. Times have changed in the fiberglass pool industry, especially with the introduction of pool colors other than classic blue or white; such as our Diamond Series. Also now you can add waterline and inlayed ceramic tile, mosaic inlayed tile, fiber-optic or LED lighting, cascades, streams, and much more! With so many options to choose from, homes of all value ranges can easily find a Crystal Palace fiberglass pool that corresponds aesthetically with their appearance. Crystal Palace Pools are beautiful and permanent looking! This is why customers of all economic classes are going with the Crystal Palace Pool fiberglass advantage.
