Start with how you want to use the pool. Then compare the design with the site conditions and what is included in the installation.

Finished shape with carefully considered details
Choose from ready-made pool models with integrated steps and different shapes. A great option when you find a model that suits both the garden and the way you like to swim.
A liner pool has a structure and a separate liner that seals the pool. Thermopool is an example of a structure solution that can be lined with a liner.

Liner pool
Construction
glasfiberpool

Liner pool
A structure with a separate, waterproof liner. Liner pool describes the surface layer and can have different types of structures.
Shape & appearance
glasfiberpool
Choose a model with set dimensions, steps, and surface finish.
Liner pool
Shape, dimensions, and steps are chosen within the possibilities of the structure system. The liner gives the pool its colour or pattern.
Installation
glasfiberpool
The shell is transported and lifted into place. Ground preparation and backfilling must suit the model.
Liner pool
The structure and liner are assembled in several stages. Delivery in parts can be an advantage where access is limited.
Future maintenance
glasfiberpool
The surface is maintained according to the manufacturer's instructions. Any surface damage is assessed based on the model and construction.
Liner pool
The liner is replaceable and may need to be replaced during the pool's lifetime. Care, use, and water balance affect wear.
Design, installation requirements, and warranties vary between models. Always base your choice on the product instructions and your specified quote.

02
Decide how you want to swim
Prioritize swimming space, steps, seating, and the feel of the pool area. At the same time, plan for a pool enclosure and technology.
03
Request a clear quote
Compare pool structure, groundworks, foundation, filtration, heating, cover, delivery, and installation on the same terms.
Before buying your pool
Frequently asked questions
Is Thermopool the same as a liner pool?
Thermopool describes a way of building the pool structure. Liner pool describes that the pool's waterproof interior consists of a liner. A Thermopool can therefore be a liner pool, but there are also liner pools with other structures.
How often does a liner need to be replaced?
There is no interval that applies to all pools. Liner type, water balance, temperature, maintenance, and wear affect service life. Follow the supplier's instructions and assess the condition of the liner.
Which option suits a site with narrow access?
A pool frame delivered in parts can make access easier. A glasfiberpool requires a complete shell to be transported and lifted into place. Check access, lifting distance, and available space before choosing.
