A reusable pool mold for forming a swimming pool coping or overhang above a peripheral portion of pool water in accordance with the present invention includes multiple bracket members detachably secured to a liner receiver for a swimming pool. Each bracket having a lower portion of an outer vertical member integrally joined to an outer portion of a horizontal member, and having an inner portion of said horizontal member integrally joined to an upper portion of an inner vertical member. Each bracket member includes a securing member for detachably securing a bracket member to the liner receiver. The pool mold includes a form member that continuously extends above a water portion of a swimming pool; the form member receiving deformable material that ultimately solidifies, whereupon, the form member and brackets are removed from the solidified material to reveal a configured coping or overhang continuously extending above a peripheral portion of water inside the swimming pool.

The present invention relates to a swimming pool structure having at least one edge zone and a water collection, filtering and recirculation circuit, the latter including at least one well zone (WZ) for falling water, at least one filter mounted in the well zone and designed to intercept the water falling into it.

A pool cover assembly includes a first encapsulation member defining a first side of a pool cover encapsulation, the first encapsulation member comprising a first mating feature. The pool cover assembly further includes a second encapsulation member defining a second side of the pool cover encapsulation, the second encapsulation member comprising a second mating feature. And the pool cover assembly further includes a corner endcap member comprising a third mating feature and a fourth mating feature. The first encapsulation member is coupleable to the corner endcap by the first mating feature and the third mating feature, and the second encapsulation member is coupleable to the corner endcap by the second mating feature and the fourth mating feature. The corner endcap member couples with the first encapsulation member and the second encapsulation member to form a corner of the pool cover encapsulation.

A tanning ledge insert for a swimming pool is provided. In various embodiments, the tanning ledge includes a fiberglass insert that is adapted for use within the context of a vinyl liner pool. A depth of the tanning ledge may be, for example, between 14 and 16 inches. However, in other embodiments, the tanning ledge may be of any other suitable depth. The tanning ledge insert may include a vertical wall and a tanning ledge extending horizontally from the vertical wall. A step may be disposed adjacent the tanning ledge's upper surface. The tanning ledge insert may include a connection lip that is dimensioned for use in securing the tanning ledge insert in place within the structure of a vinyl liner pool. Methods of installing and replacing the tanning ledge insert are also provided.
