Recommended products for 460 cm diameter Gre above-ground pools
If you have purchased a Grè above-ground pool with a diameter of 460 cm, or intend to do so, it is good to know what products are necessary for its installation and what are recommended to make the most of it.
This page was created precisely for this purpose: to give you advice on installation and on the products to combine with your pool.
Delivery
If you are about to make a purchase, you need to know that with Zavattishop, shipping is free, but you must have a forklift for unloading at ground level upon delivery.
If you do not have a forklift, you must also add the hydraulic liftgate to your shopping cart, which costs €99.
In this way, we will deliver the pool to you with a truck equipped with a hydraulic liftgate, which will allow for the unloading of the heavy and large pallet containing the material:

Products necessary for correct and durable installation
For the pool's support base, it is recommended to create a 15 cm quartz-smoothed concrete slab, or, alternatively, 3-4 cm of well-compacted sand on a flat surface protected by a polyurethane mat may suffice.
Below is a list of accessories that we recommend purchasing with the 460 cm diameter Gre pool.
If the pool is to be inground, we recommend a polyurethane mat to be placed around the pool walls to protect them from ground moisture.
Soft bottom mat 5.50 x 4 m for above-ground pool
Adhesive liner protection strip for sheet metal pools - roll h 0.15 x 50 m
16.5 linear meters - Side protection mat for inground Gré pools
Lighting
To illuminate your above-ground pool, there is a specific type of lamp that does not require drilling holes or special preparations; in fact, Seamaid above-ground pool lights are installed on the pool's return fitting, nothing could be simpler. You can choose between a white LED lamp or a colored RGB one:
Seamaid white LED light for above-ground pools 18 LED 9W white light
Multicolor LED light for above-ground pools, Seamaid, 36 LED 8W
Cleaning
Pool cleaning is essential. Water is not purified solely through water recirculation and chemical products.
Thorough cleaning of the bottom and walls is necessary, which can be done either manually (using hydraulic cleaning systems) or automatically (using electric robotic cleaners).

Pool Safety
Even in above-ground pools, safety should not take a back seat.
For easy access for children or the elderly, we highly recommend the resin safety ladder shown below.

Heating and Closing
Above-ground pools do not contain a large quantity of water; to prevent heat dispersion and retain the heat accumulated during the day, an isothermal cover is sufficient, which should be spread out in the evening and rolled up in the morning.
For the winter period, or when going on vacation and "abandoning" the pool for a few days, it is advisable to cover the pool with the appropriate 4-season cover, which will prevent dirt from getting into the water, allowing the water to be preserved from one season to the next.
Start-up and maintenance
After filling the pool, it will be necessary to start the filtration system for up to 12 hours a day and chemically treat the water.
The main chemical products to always have available are: DIKLOR SUPER, ALGASTOP, TABLOK SUPER, and PH, which you can purchase in our Summer Kit.
The filtration system also requires constant maintenance: it is advisable to backwash frequently and, from time to time, replace the glass sand.
