Does dipping in an above-ground pool, that sits atop of padding on top of the lawn, satisfy the requirements for a Men’s Mikveh?

    Can you better define what you mean by "the requirements for a Men’s Mikveh"? In most regards, men and women have the same rules regarding mikvaot (Zav is one notable exception)

  • It depends on how the water is being put in and handled.

It should work, since men do not have to go to the mikvah at all today and if men want to go its only as a minhag like erev rosh hashana, yom kipper or tifalas keri. The mikvah tha you discribed is a kli and it makes it שאובים. The Mishina Bruah says in 'סימן פח ס'ק ד that you can use מים שאובים for these kinds of tevilos.

  • It's also not true that men only go to the mikvah as a minhag.
