Well guys I am the ahj.680 states that a pool that will hold more than 42 inches of water is a permanent poola nd must e bonded accordinly. Also the pump requirements are different for a permanent pool. most all above ground pools have both metal and vinyl or painted parts. DO u differntiat from storable and premanent by water depth.some have wlls that are painted metal. some are vinyl coated. question remains ...do u call all above ground pools storable and wire accordinly or do u differentiate.
