Step 1
Make the choice. You can choose to have an indoor or an outdoor pool. Knowing which one you want first will make the rest much easier.

Step 2
Know the size. The size of your pool will determine on how much room you have. Depending on where you plan to set the pool, measure the available spot so you can see what size pool will fit in that area.

Step 3
Determine how many people will use it. If there is only two people using a pool, you can usually get by with a fairly smaller sized pool, but if you have a large family or want to use it for parties, get-togethers, etc, then you probably want a larger pool.

Step 5
Know where to shop. You probably have many local stores that sell pools and it's always great to check locally first. But sometimes you can find a better deal somewhere else. Check the Internet for pool stores closer to your area to see what kind of deals you can find. Be sure to check around multiple places before deciding on one to make sure you get the best value for the price.
