Amint, this should be your only concern. Safety! Especially for kids.
If the above is not an issue. You shall just do it.

i wonder, can we just drain out all the water when not in use and then just let it dry?
no? not possible?
or its defeat the purpose of having swimming pool?

so every time you want to take a dip, you might have to wait two days for the water to fill up

is it? isn't just take about 4-5 hours to fill up?
last time i visited a homestay somewhere in Malacca and they prepared it just one night before checking in
but not sure on the pump flowrate capacity

Hi AMINT, any updates after meeting up with your contractor? What is the cost like?
By the way, wonder if you have check out http://www.poolnleisure.com/index.html

Its true to have a safer swimming pool at home here in Malaysia, I knew a swimming pool contractor which did a pretty nice & safe one for one of my friend in kl. may check them out at Modular Pools.

At least i heard a good advice from someone loke you

I have a pool and it's one of the best decisions I've made for my family. We spend more time together and now instead of going out, the kids bring their friends over. Construction of a freeform pool is expensive but if you have the budget, It's worth it! There are also other options like fiberglass or liner pools which are cheaper. I know Classic Above Ground Pools in Malaysia offer DIY portable pools. Not sure about maintenance but it shouldn't cost so much.

My pool was done by Aquarius Swimming Pools, they were highly recommended to me and I would do the same too. Super easy to work with

this question....i think i don't need to think about it in my this life

Anyway its not that pricey... I'm still debating it.. but I have a club house that is like 500M from my house.. so I probably wont go for it

Cukup la iklan ... up this for you hahahahha

Do not be discourage comrade.

For 5500sq ft house you can actually built a decent size pool. Keep it small to reduce maintenance charges (as you can do it yourself) You can use it primarily as a wading pool, to soak in on hot days at the same time you can install a swim jet for swimming excercise. It'w will fit these criterias:
1) Cooling down on hot days with a drink in hand
2) Reasonable installation price (25k-40k depending on size)
3) Can do self maintenance
4) Can also use for swimming excercise with a swim jet (prolly cost anothe 5k-10k)

Trust me as i have done it before not talk only like many others..... cheers.

Hi
Do u mind sharing your experience? Ie the size of your pool and cost involved? And also the contact of your builder?
Am contemplating getting one

Has anyone tried cheaper above ground pools like intex? The lifecycle of one I'm sure is much more limited, but considering the price difference from getting something built, would it be worth it?

so i assumed some of u already have your own pool at your house. the next question to ask is : where to find private coach to teach swimming for my kids or myself. haha


well, i have 6 years of experienced in teaching swimming. can pm me anytime if anyone of you guys are interested ya.

you can try Alphapool - https://www.alphapoolcontractor.my/
