Try to use limited fittings in your personal swimming pool as more than necessary fittings may affect the waterproofing of the pool if you are not taking the help of skilled labor. The inlet and outlet pipes should be blended in such a manner that they do not ruin the pool’s beauty.

If you use the main connection for filling water, firstly you will need to pay for it as per the meter and secondly, you will need to get it treated before using it in the pool.

The biggest reason for the failure of DIY swimming pools is the absence of effective drainage system. Make sure that your pool is not at the lowest point in your backyard or garden otherwise, the surface of the groundwater will move towards the pool and drainage will get difficult. Your pool should have access to good drainage channels.
