A Timeline You Will Love

From delivery to swim-ready in days, not months.

Pool installation timeline step 1: Site Preparation

Step 1

Site Preparation

Site Preparation | 1-3 days

Before your pool arrives, the site is prepared to create a solid, level foundation for your Novus pool. This typically includes preparing the concrete base, confirming access for delivery and coordinating required electrical and other site work.

Step 2

Pool Placement

Pool Placement | 1 day

This is when everything starts to come together. Your Novus pool is delivered to your home, carefully moved into position, set onto the prepared foundation, leveled and prepared for final connections.

Step 3

Fill and Startup | Same Day or Next day

Once your pool is properly placed and the required electrical connections are completed by a certified electrician, it’s time to add water. The pool is filled, the equipment is started and the system is checked to make sure everything is operating properly.

Step 4

Ready

Ready! | Time to Enjoy

With installation and startup complete, your new outdoor space is ready to come to life. Finish any surrounding deck or landscaping, complete applicable safety and inspection requirements and get ready to enjoy a whole new way to think about pools.
