Browse Forums Pools & Spas 1 Aug 07, 2017 8:45 am Hi all, I'm looking into the possibility of an above ground fiberglass pool. The compass maxi rib looks to fit my needs. I would like to know if anybody has had one of these installed above ground and how solid they feel underfoot and on the side walls. I have been in some in ground fibreglass pools and the shells have sometimes had "spongy" spots. Just wondering if this ever happens with maxi rib system. Thanks Sarah Anybody with a maxi rib compass pool above ground? 3Aug 12, 2017 3:51 am Hi Sara . I have no experience with maxi rib but we build about 30 above ground fibreglass pools per year . Defiantly feel solid under foot . I actually delivered a 7x 3.5 reinforced pool to Hervey Bay last Saturday . If you would like to have a look at it I could organise for you. Cheers Andrew Re: Anybody with a maxi rib compass pool above ground? 4Aug 12, 2017 9:39 am Ooh can you share photos please? I have a friend asking about above ground fibre glass. She called Barrier reef pools and they said their range/the installation of is a fair amount dearer than the standard in ground. Is that true? I can't imagine why?? Less digging, no conc bond beam? Just deck up to the edge?

Can they sit over a sewer main? Re: Anybody with a maxi rib compass pool above ground? 7Sep 06, 2017 10:56 am wheeliworks Hi Sara .
