Container pool questions

[ebuckeye]

Hello.

I recently purchased a small (16x8x5) container pool and I have a few questions.

1. What type of liner is better the inside to seal it? Maybe a roll on or spry on sealant m?

2. It has two windows/clear panels on the side. One is 4x8 and one is 4x7. Is 1 inch thick plexiglass tuck enough to support the pressure and also what is the best way to install these panels?

3. Any advice on pumps, returns, heaters, etc on a pool of this type ?

4. What does everybody recommend for a cover for it?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

1. What type of liner is better the inside to seal it? Maybe a roll on or spry on sealant m?

I think the one I remembered, and posted below, used an epoxy paint.

2. It has two windows/clear panels on the side. One is 4x8 and one is 4x7. Is 1 inch thick plexiglass tuck enough to support the pressure and also what is the best way to install these panels?

ModPool uses 1” thick acrylic. (https://modpools.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360052373253-What-Are-the-Windows-Made-Of)

3. Any advice on pumps, returns, heaters, etc on a pool of this type ?

Same advice as a regular pool.

4. What does everybody recommend for a cover for it?

I'd use a solar cover.

Hey there! I'd like to get some thoughts from the forum on how to best run my shipping container pool (the land boat :) ) There is a very long story about how the pool came to be, but fast forwarding almost 2 years, we finally have the pool in place and have it filled. The company who made the...

Experiences repairing rust and painting a Modpool (shipping container pool) liner?

I just moved into a house which had an 8'x20' Modpool with a Fastlane Swimjet from Endless Pools installed about 18 months before we purchased it. Unfortunately the bolts holding the window had some rust and upon closer inspection I found some rust spots in the container wall near the window...
