Elite Poly or Sterling Steel: what holds the water back

A vinyl pool is built from walls that stand in the excavation and a liner that hangs inside them and carries the water. The wall is the structure, so the wall is the choice that matters. From Fort Wayne, Poolside installs two lines: the Elite Poly Pool and the Sterling Steel Pool.

Poolside's own page describes the family as customizable vinyl and stainless steel pools, and the work shows how far that stretches: a raised wall pool with a waterfall spilling over fieldstone, an indoor vinyl pool with slate tile and timber walls, a dark liner pool being filled beside a lake. Which line suits a yard around Traverse City is a conversation about the lot, the grade and what you want around the water.

Four things come with the job: dig, prepare, install, fill

In Poolside's own words, a Fort Wayne vinyl pool includes: Complete excavation services. Total property preparation. Safe and efficient pool installation. Full-tank truck for water.

Read them as a sequence. The excavation opens the ground, the property preparation readies the lot around it, the installation puts the walls and liner in, and the tank truck brings the water so the pool is filled and holding when the crew leaves the site. One company covers the lot from bare ground to full pool, which is the whole reason to call a pool contractor that also runs the excavators.

Waterfalls, decks and grottos, then the paperwork

Available features include waterfalls, unique deck designs, grottos and other water features. They're what makes a vinyl pool look like it belongs to one yard and not to a brochure, and they're easiest to plan before the ground is opened, not after.

Call us to learn about our warranties and our affordable financing options from LightStream. That's how Poolside puts it on its own page, and it's the honest answer: the warranty terms and the numbers depend on the pool you pick, so they come from a conversation, not from a number on this page.

The conversation is free. Request a call back and a Poolside representative contacts you on the next business day, or call (231) 943-7061, Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

Established 2000 and BBB Accredited. Poolside installs the Elite Poly Pool and the Sterling Steel Pool from Fort Wayne, and is the only ProTeam dealer in the area.

Weighing vinyl against the other two?

A pool that arrives as one molded piece and is lifted into the hole is a Viking or Latham fiberglass pool. A pool formed on the lot to your drawing, deck and filtration included, is a custom concrete pool.

Poolside installs all three families, so the comparison can be made in one place. Bring the yard to a free consultation and compare them there.
