Aurenanora Round Steel-Wall Pool

A round steel-wall pool — a galvanised, powder-coated steel wall holding a heavy-duty liner, the classic sturdy pool that can stand above ground or be set partly in, and lasts far longer than an inflatable or soft-frame pool. Includes the wall, liner and handrail; set on a firm, level, load-bearing base (concrete pad or correctly compacted sand) to the instructions, filtered with a sand pump, and never left unsupervised with children. The real family pool that stays up for years.

• Type: round galvanised steel-wall pool + liner
• Build: powder-coated steel wall, heavy-duty liner, handrail
• Install: firm, level, load-bearing base to the instructions; supervise children

Water is dangerous for children — this comes first. Never leave a child unattended in or near a pool; keep constant adult supervision and secure the pool with a cover, fencing or an alarm as your local rules require. A steel-wall pool holds a huge volume of water — many tonnes — and must stand on a firm, level, load-bearing base prepared to the instructions (a concrete pad or correctly compacted sand bed), fully and correctly assembled; an inadequate base or a wrongly built wall can fail suddenly and release the water, which is extremely dangerous. A partly or fully in-ground installation needs correct excavation, bedding and backfill by a competent installer. An electric sand-filter pump or heater runs through an RCD and is connected per the instructions, with fixed wiring by a qualified electrician. Handle pool chemicals safely and never mix them. A fixed pool and its fencing can need building or planning permission — check first. CE marked where applicable. The statutory 14-day right of withdrawal applies to consumers.
