Above Ground Pool Sales in Massachusetts

Aquarian Pool & Spa is your local source for above ground pool sales and professional installation in Massachusetts. Based in Franklin, we've been helping Massachusetts homeowners transform their backyards with quality above ground swimming pools for years.

When you buy an above ground pool from Aquarian Pool & Spa, you're not just buying a pool — you're getting a complete package. Every pool purchase includes professional delivery and installation by our experienced crew. We handle the site preparation, excavation, assembly, liner installation, and equipment setup so you can start swimming without the stress.

We carry a range of round and oval above ground pools in various sizes and wall heights. Whether you're looking for a compact 15-foot round pool for the kids or a large 27-foot pool for the whole family, we have options to fit your yard and your budget.

Professional Above Ground Pool Installation

Professional installation is the single most important factor in how long your above ground pool lasts and how well it performs. A pool that's not level, not properly supported, or not correctly assembled can develop liner wrinkles, wall stress, and water circulation problems.

At Aquarian Pool & Spa, installation isn't an afterthought — it's what we do. Our crew has the experience to handle challenging yards, sloped terrain, tight access, and all the details that make the difference between a pool that lasts a season and one that lasts for years.

Round & Oval Above Ground Pools

Round vs. Oval Above Ground Pools

Above ground pools come in two primary shapes: round and oval. Each has advantages depending on your yard, budget, and how you plan to use the pool.

Round Above Ground Pools

  • • More affordable per square foot of swimming area
  • • Simpler installation — no support braces needed
  • • Better water circulation with a single return
  • • Available in sizes from 12' to 33' in diameter
  • • Ideal for families and recreational swimming

Oval Above Ground Pools

  • • Better for swimming laps
  • • Requires buttress or support brace system
  • • Available in sizes from 12'×24' to 21'×43'
  • • More installation complexity and cost

Semi-Inground Pool Options

In addition to traditional above ground pools, Aquarian Pool & Spa offers semi-inground pool options. Semi-inground pools are designed to be partially buried, giving you the look of an inground pool at a fraction of the cost.

Not every above ground pool can be buried — only specific models engineered for partial burial should be installed this way. We only recommend semi-inground installation for pools whose manufacturer specifications allow it. Never bury a pool that isn't designed for it.

Pool Site Evaluation & Excavation

Before any pool goes in the ground, we conduct a thorough site evaluation. We assess the yard for level ground, drainage patterns, underground utilities, overhead obstructions (like tree branches or power lines), and equipment access. This evaluation determines what site preparation is needed.

Excavation and ground preparation are critical steps. The ground must be perfectly level for the pool to sit correctly. If your yard slopes, we may need to excavate the high side or build up the low side. A sand base is then prepared to create a smooth, protective floor for the pool liner.

Proper site preparation prevents the most common above ground pool problems: uneven water level, liner stretching, wall deformation, and premature wear.

Replacing an Existing Above Ground Pool

If you have an old, damaged, or worn-out above ground pool, Aquarian Pool & Spa can help with pool removal and replacement. We safely dismantle the old pool, assess the existing site, and install a new pool — often reusing the existing sand base if it's in good condition.

In many cases, replacing an old pool is more cost-effective than repairing it, especially if the walls, liner, or frame have significant rust or damage. We can evaluate your existing pool and recommend whether repair or replacement makes more sense.

Pool Equipment: Filters, Pumps, Liners & More

Pool Equipment & Accessories

Every above ground pool needs a properly sized filtration system to keep the water clean and safe. We can help you choose the right equipment for your pool size and budget.

Pool Filters

Sand, cartridge, and DE filter systems keep your pool water clean and clear.

Pool Pumps

Properly sized pumps circulate water efficiently through the filtration system.

Pool Liners

Quality vinyl liners protect your pool and provide a beautiful finish.

Skimmers

Skimmers remove debris from the water surface before it sinks.

Pool Heaters

Extend your swimming season with gas or electric pool heaters.

Saltwater Systems

Salt chlorine generators provide a gentler, lower-maintenance swimming experience.

Above Ground Pool Installation Cost in Massachusetts

The cost of an above ground pool in Massachusetts depends on several factors: pool size, shape (round vs. oval), wall height, liner type, equipment package, and site preparation requirements. Oval pools typically cost more than round pools due to the additional support structure needed.

Site conditions also affect cost. A flat, accessible yard with no obstacles is straightforward. A sloped yard, tight equipment access, or the need to remove an old pool can add to the installation cost.

Other factors that can affect cost include:

  • Permits required by your town
  • Electrical work for pumps and heaters
  • Additional site grading or excavation
  • Upgraded equipment (salt systems, heaters)
