*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Swimming pools are water-filled containers commonly known to provide relaxation, therapy and recreation. Most pools can be found at hotels, massage parlors, schools, gymnasiums and even homes. Regardless of its location, a common problem encountered by many people is its removal. This article will provide quick and easy steps in swimming pool removal.

Pool installers cannot only be consulted for installation but also for decommissioning. A major tip in swimming pool removal is to approach pool installation or demolition experts like 3-D Construction � (St. Pete, Fl 33704). According to most pool installers, a pool of water cannot just be emptied automatically. Doing so may cause it to float up the ground and potentially damaging the electrical and plumbing connections of the pool. Also, the pool cannot just be filled with dirt; it will only become a mud pit because rainwater cannot pass through the pool liner. Decommissioning typically starts by draining the water in the pool and removing any filter equipment.

The pool can be drained using a pool pump. A hose can be attached to the pump's input and output. The input will be placed into the pool while the output to the place where the pumped water will be contained or released. The old piping can be removed as the pool is being dug around. The remainder can be left buried unless they will create an obstruction in future landscaping.

A couple of big holes can be cut out on the pool's bottom. The holes should be 3 feet in width as these will be used for drainage. Sand, gravel or rocks can be used to fill the holes. In the case of liner pools, liners can simply be removed.

For ponds, a pond frame should be devised. The top of the pond should be two feet under the ground level. Posts can be set in concrete in order to support the newly made frame. This will provide pond walls more strength in mounting to posts. For liner pools, one will have to wait until the pool frame is removed so the wood can be reused for the pond frame. If the pool has a concrete deck, it should be broken up and tossed into the pool. The concrete should be placed in the most bottom part of the pool.

For concrete pools, the upper two feet of concrete around the pool can be broken. For liner pools that will not be converted into ponds, the whole wooden frame around the pool has to be removed. The surround area of the pool should then be dug out by removing the upper two feet of soil. The dirt will be used to fill the pool. It is important to pack the dirt as the pool is filled. For convenience, the pool can be filled partially then use water to soak the dirt. This process will be repeated until the desired fill level is attained.

Lastly, the area should be packed with a soil compactor or any related equipment. The gaps should be checked if they are completely filled and there is no probability of a collapse to occur.

Swimming pool removal may not be very difficult if one will properly follow the simple steps offered above. Through careful execution, making an old pool become a new pond or yard is just a breeze.
