To create a pool, which will combine functionality, aesthetics and perfect integration into the environment that surrounds it, the first fundamental step is the conception of a plan, which in turn will be promoted to reliable and expert professionals. According to plan…

The decision that will lead you to the acquisition of your own private pool must meet specific requirements, whether practical-functional or aesthetic.
First of all, you must keep in mind that a good "design" is the necessary basis, so that the installation meets your expectations as much as possible and at the same time is friendly to the natural environment and agrees with the architecture that surrounds it.

For this reason it would be good to turn to an expert in order to examine some fundamental factors, such as the shape, dimensions and location of the pool, in addition to the material and construction technology. Below, we will examine all these elements, in order to arrive at some kind of "manual" for the final realization of the "project-pool".

Some preliminary questions

Before starting the implementation of the "venture" in question, it is good to have solved some questions, mainly regarding the choice of the place.
To begin with, it is necessary to make sure that the ground where the installation will take place is suitable. Contact the authorities to find out about any obstacles to construction, such as distance from the road, boundaries, the obligation to fence and how to connect to the local water supply network. Then you have to make an assessment of the other elements that characterize the pre-selected area, such as the neighboring buildings or the presence of trees, hedges and flowers.
In addition, you should collect all these data related to the residence, the slope of the ground and the underground pipes (water, gas, electricity), with the relative possibility for an external connection.

Gather all the necessary information in one document, which will act as a panoramic view of everything involved in the construction of the pool, so that every job can be efficient.
A second parameter, in which you should come to the conclusion, has to do with the type of "use" that the pool will serve. If, for example, it is going to be used mainly by children, it would be good to choose a place easily accessible from the central area of the house, so that you can help them in case of need. According to plan…

In some cases, in fact, the pool can be completely adjacent to the house and function in some way as an extension of it, with the advantage in this case of being able to use all the "services" of the house.
Finally, if you have the option of more isolation and relaxation, you could build the pool at a fairly large distance from the house. In this case, however, it is considered necessary to have a pool-house which will have the necessary facilities, such as a bathroom, shower and changing rooms.

Spaces and dimensions

The environment is never an obstacle in the creation of a swimming pool. Rather, we would say the opposite, as he has almost always proved to be a valuable ally.
First of all you need to consider the climate of the area, where you will place the pool. The professional who will undertake its construction should know how to handle the "irregularities" of the ground and the natural features of the environment, so as to reduce the visual impact of the installation during the winter months, when its use will also is more limited.

In addition, thanks to technological advances, the garden is no longer the only space available for adding a pool, and the roof, roof and even the interior of the house can be adapted to accommodate it, however difficult it may be. if it seems so at first glance. It's truly amazing how an unsightly roof can be transformed by the presence of a 'wet paradise'.

Legal problems related to the waterproofing, the strengthening of the construction and the risks of "dismantling" the space, are just some of the difficulties that must be faced.
On the other hand, the lack of outdoor space should not be a deterrent to creating a private pool.
In fact, there are pools of "limited" dimensions, which can prove to be a very practical solution - without lacking aesthetics - and are particularly useful as they have all the functions of a larger pool.

The ideal dimensions of a pool are 5X10 or 6X12. But if you intend the pool for more "sports" activities, you must definitely provide a length of at least 12.50 m. The largest pool dimensions recommended are 16X8 while the smaller ones are 8X4, for children. According to plan…
At the same time there are other physical factors that must be taken into account. It would not be pleasant to have a large pool in a small space, just as a very small pool would not make a good impression in a park or a large garden.

Factor: Nature

Making sure that the structure has a good level of sunlight during the day is a basic condition in the search for the ideal place to place it. The ability for the pool to "enjoy" the heat of the sun actually means that it gets the ideal water temperature, which is a surprising advantage in the effort to save energy.

However, as important as the sun factor is, so is the shadow factor.
If the pool is placed near trees and plants, it is something that helps during a very hot day. Of course, they should not be too close because there is a risk of damaging the construction and making cleaning procedures difficult.

For this reason it is good to avoid bushes or trees with prickly and thorny leaves. Also, there should be no grass right around the pool, because the splashing water can damage it (due to chlorine). At the same time, the grass itself can be a contaminant for the water, while when the "mowing" process is done, damage can be caused to the filtration system. The best solution for around the pool is a mini paver and maybe a covered area or alternatively an area with an open canopy.

One last natural element that we should not ignore is the wind. A factor that may at first glance appear to be secondary but it is not in any way, as in addition to disturbing those trying to enjoy their bath, it affects the aeration of the water as well as the disinfection products.

What shape should I choose?

Advances in technology have made it possible to build pools with a wide variety of shapes.
The geometric and – more popular – form has some key advantages. In addition to always being pleasing to the eye, it allows for a simpler one maintenance, ensures the best possible water circulation and facilitates the cleaning process.
The circular, oval and those with round lines shapes are those that guarantee a more "smooth" integration into the environment, which is why they are more expensive. According to plan…
Sometimes some even choose to add an extra semi-circular area to the pool, which can serve as a hydromassage.

The new GOK is now the law of the state where in article 4 par. it states:
Installation of an uncovered water tank or swimming pool, with a maximum area of 50 sq.m., which are served by external compact engine room systems and do not require a reinforced concrete wall for their installation and provided that the height of all structures at no point exceeds more one meter (1.00 m.) from the final ground level and as long as no excavations or embankments of the natural soil greater than 1.00 m. are required for its installation and the required planting of the mandatorily uncovered area is observed. For the installation, a statement is required from a competent engineer who assumes responsibility for the static and electromechanical safety of the construction and facilities. According to plan…
