Semi Above & Above Ground Pools

Fiberglass Above Ground Pools

With advancements in building technology and architectural design, it has become increasingly common to construct homes on sloping or challenging sites. This presents a unique challenge when it comes to installing a pool, requiring us to come up with creative solutions. However, the Australian Design Award-Winning MaxiRib™ system has revolutionised the way semi above and above ground pools are installed.

Contrary to popular belief, installing a pool above natural ground level does not necessitate extensive earthworks or the construction of retaining walls. Our innovative MaxiRib system eliminates the need for these additional processes, thereby reducing engineering costs. In fact, in most cases, installing a Compass MaxiRib Pool proves to be more cost-effective compared to alternatives involving earthworks, retaining walls, or even concrete pools.

At Wright Pools & Spas, we strive to provide unique solutions that optimise the installation process while ensuring customer satisfaction. The MaxiRib system embodies our commitment to innovation and efficiency, allowing you to enjoy a high-quality pool, while minimising additional expenses.

Compass MaxiRib™ Technology

Perfect for sloping and difficult sites

Since 2000, Compass Pools has pioneered the installation of above ground pools. The Maxi Rib System was the first of its kind, and won an Australian design award for innovation! With the Maxi Rib System, you can put a full-sized Compass Pool almost anywhere you want it: from hillsides to rooftops. With Maxi Ribs, vanishing edges (infinity pools), acrylic windows, waterfalls and much more are possible.

If your site meets any of the following criteria, then an above ground pool could be the perfect solution for you:

  • You have a sloping site that would require some or all of your pool walls to be above ground level.
  • You desire an elegant vanishing or infinity-edge pool with stunning windows in the pool wall.
  • You wish to install your pool on a deck or patio area elevated above the natural ground level.
  • You want to place your pool in close proximity to a building for convenience.
  • You need your pool to be partially above ground for landscape design purposes.
