Fiberglass Pools
Perhaps the fastest growing surface choice is a fiberglass pool. This trend is consistent with pools in general getting smaller and not having diving boards or deep ends. The entire shell has been trucked in as one piece so the size is predetermined and freight expenses along with road restrictions limit the size.

Operating Issues:

The fiberglass pool will generally require less maintenance if it has been properly installed, whether it is an entire fiberglass shell or fiberglass applied over plaster. The smooth source will not usually require brushing.

Maintenance Issues:

Keeping calcium above 200 ppm and avoiding high sanitizer levels will keep this surface from staining or spotting. Fiberglass owners with well water may wish to put an iron filter on their outdoor swimming pool feed line. Use Vitamin C tablets to remove spots or granular ascorpbic acid if it is available, no more than one kilogram per 10,000 gallons.
