Pool - what is it? Description and reviews

It's good to dip into a cool water on a sultry day! Enjoy its soothing noise in the summer ... People who love to swim, but who live far from the sea and rivers, came up with a swimming pool. What is the pool and what does it eat? Let us consider this in more detail.

Pool: what is it?

A swimming pool is a waterproofing structure intended for the swimming of one or several people. Construction of such a construction requires certain knowledge and skills.

Requirements for the pool

Pool! What is a real pool? Of course, this is water. And it should be appropriate level. No one will want to swim in a muddy plunge pool. To ensure that the water "does not bloom" and has always been clean, the pool must be equipped with special equipment. Firstly, it is a purification system that ensures water circulation. Secondly, it is necessary to disinfect the liquid, which is carried out by chemical or physical method.

Equally important is the safety of the basin. In it there should be steps with an anti-slip effect, handrails, illumination under water.

Swimming pool: description

On purpose, the pool can be private and public.

Public pools are usually located in places accessible to everyone. And anyone who wants to swim can take advantage of them. In turn, such structures are divided into:

1. Sports pools that are located in sports schools and palaces. They are used for training and competitions in water sports.
2. Healing pools, which are designed to improve health. They can be seen in saunas, sanatoriums, boarding houses and SPA-salons.

Private pools are equipped only for home use. They are necessarily built on an individual project. Appearance, shape, material and finish completely depend on the imagination, desire and financial condition of the owner. In the pool, additional equipment can be installed , such as artificial waterfalls, fountains, lighting and geysers.

Pools are open and closed. The first are built on the street, the second - inside the buildings, on the basement floors.

1. The advantage of the swimming pools that are in the building is that they can be used at any time of the year and the weather. They require less care for themselves: you do not need to empty the water tank for the winter, clean it of leaves and amphibious animals. But there is a big disadvantage - this is the cost and the requirement of special equipment to maintain the level of moisture in the room.
2. The advantages of an outdoor swimming pool are obvious: the sun and fresh air. But the weather is not always favorable, moreover, in our country the heat lasts only four months a year. And the pool on the street requires preparation for the opening of the swimming season and its closure. Water is necessarily drained for winter, so that the walls of the structure do not burst under the influence of frost.

According to the type of structure, the pools can be stationary and collapsible.

The stationary pool is the most expensive of the existing water structures. To build it, you must first dig a hole, then pour the walls with concrete or insert a ready-made shape. Capacity of a stationary pool is made of heavy-duty vinyl, capable of withstanding the load of water.

The name of this type of pool - collapsible - speaks for itself. It can be collected, dismantled and moved from place to place. Collapsible pools are usually somewhat smaller than stationary ones.

Basin basin

Frame pool - what is it? This is a metal construction, the walls of which are very dense canvas, which is often made of vinyl. The main advantage of the building is its simplicity and quick assembly, if necessary. The depth and volume of the frame pools can be completely different.

The frame has a special coating, which protects the vinyl sheet from damage. This type of swimming pool is perfect for a holiday.

Inflatable pools are the most popular among other species. If a stationary pool is not affordable for everyone, then people of medium affluence will be able to afford the inflatable. They are small (for children) and large, up to two tons of water. They are easy to inflate with a pump that comes with the pool.

There are also decorative pools. They are designed to decorate the landscape.

The sea in the pool

The pool with sea water is a combination of unique properties of the sea and progress. An excellent solution for people who do not have the opportunity to constantly be on the sea air.

It's not enough to throw sea salt in the pool - it's not so easy to recreate the sea in the backyard. Water must be filtered by a special method. And the salt is removed and dried from sea water in a natural way. For long work with salt water, the equipment must be made of bronze, which does not react with salts. But despite the laboriousness of the work, it's worth it - a piece of the sea.

Frame or inflatable?

For domestic use, collapsible pool models are more suitable. But how to choose a swimming pool? Reviews of people who have wireframe and inflatable models, say the following:

1. In the installation of special differences are not observed. Both the inflatable and the frame pools are easy to install, and it does not take much time.
2. The size of inflatable structures is less, their depth does not exceed one meter in height. But the frame structures reach one and a half meters on the surface, and their depth can be greater if the skeleton is buried in the ground.
3. The convenience of entry and exit of both structures is approximately the same. The frame pools in the kit includes a metal ladder - with its help, the exit and the entrance to the water will not be difficult. For an inflatable structure, a ladder is not needed. To get into the water, just press on the wall and climb over it.
4. In the matter of care, based on feedback from consumers, the frame pool is much more convenient. Having lowered water, a cloth it is easy to wash a rag as it remains stretched. This can not be said about the inflatable pool.
