The dream of your own pool
What types of pool are there?
The first decision that any prospective pool owner must make is of course the type of pool. There is often no space for an indoor swimming pool. A spacious garden, on the other hand, can be optimally used with a pool. If you still want to design your garden in a natural way, you can opt for a swimming pond. An artificial pond for swimming has a chamber for water regeneration in addition to the swimming area. There, plants ensure natural purification. Anyone who likes to go on a resort holiday and wants to take a piece of this luxury home with them is more likely to opt for a classic swimming pool. There are many different variants of this – from the simple inflatable pool to models with a metal frame to the built-in pool that is embedded in the ground. In terms of stability and appearance, this is certainly the best option for most prospective buyers. However, most costs must be planned for.
Proper care of the private pool
Careful planning before construction can already save a lot of work. While a bit of shade is tempting, the pool should not be set up under trees as falling leaves and debris can spoil poolside fun. If you are not going to use it for a long time, we recommend a cover and an outdoor shower, where you can easily clean yourself before each bath, is recommended. But even if these instructions are carefully observed, a pool must be maintained regularly, because the wind can also blow dead leaves and soil into the water. Every owner should install a filter system that is tailored to the size of the pool. In addition, it is recommended to clean the pool at least once a week with a pool vacuum. This task can also be performed by a pool robot. As a daily ritual, nets are also ideal for keeping the water clean.
Clean water with chlorine
Before chemical additives are added to the pool, the pH value of the water must first be measured. This is the only way to determine the amount of chlorine that needs to be added for optimal hygiene. However, the entire procedure can also be carried out automatically. A pool dosing system for chlorine can be used permanently or only if nobody is on site for a long time to take over the pool maintenance. These dosing systems are available in different versions. Simple models float on the water surface. A certain amount of disinfectant is continuously released from these. Fully automatic variants for chlorine are simply connected to the filter system. Water analyzes are then carried out regularly and the correct dose of disinfectant is automatically dispensed into the water. The decision for such a system can also be made later, because it can be installed at any time.
