Splash Above-Ground Pools in Des Moines

Above-ground Splash SuperPools and Omega round pools that can be left up all winter.

Chapter 01

SuperPool or Omega: rectangular or round

Splash makes two families of above-ground pool that we carry. The SuperPool is rectangular. The Omega is round. Which one is right usually starts with the yard: a long, narrow space suits a rectangle, an open lawn suits a circle.

Think about how the pool will be used too. A rectangle gives you a straight run for swimming and plays well with a deck or fence line. A round pool is easy to place and easy to walk around. Come in and talk through your space and we will point you to the one that fits.

We do not list sizes here because they depend on the pool you pick. Ask in the showroom and we will tell you what is available.

Built to stay up all winter

The thing owners of a typical above-ground pool dread is the fall teardown. Splash pools can be left up all winter, so you do not have to drain, fold and store the whole pool each year.

That changes what an above-ground pool feels like to own. Close it for the season, leave it standing and open it in spring instead of rebuilding it. Pair that with a good winter routine, and our water treatment supplies page covers the chemistry that goes with closing and opening.

As with any pool in Iowa, ask about closing it down properly before the first hard freeze.

Chapter 03

A skimmer that adjusts, and no liner swaps every few years

Two details are worth asking about. The skimmer adjusts to the water level, so it keeps working as the level rises and falls with weather and use. And there is no liner replacement every few years, which is one of the quiet costs that wears down the appeal of other above-ground pools.

Parts, filters, pumps, steps and chemicals for your pool are stocked on our parts page, and if you ever need a part, bring the old one and we will match it.

Ask us about financing and layaway, and mention the military and first responder discount when you visit.

Water World has sold pools, hot tubs and saunas on Douglas Ave since 1978, and the showroom is open Tuesday to Saturday.

Pool in the yard, tub on the deck

Many customers want both: a pool for summer and a tub for the cold months. See the hot tubs and swim spas on the floor, or choose water care on the water treatment page. To talk it through, plan a showroom visit or call (515) 277-6066.
