We are building a concrete pool at the dacha - where to start?

Although doctors advise us to lead a healthy lifestyle and maintain a good physical shape all year round, we once again begin to identify and eliminate problems immediately before the onset of the "bikini season". And since the spring-summer holiday is not far off, it's time to think again about the figure and the healthy tone of the whole body.

However, even in the summer, not everyone has time to visit gyms and fitness clubs. Is there an exit? How can you arrange home workouts to combine the benefits, pleasure and relaxation?

The answer is simple. The most successful solution to the problem is the construction of a country pool. After swimming, and helps to acquire the desired forms, and strengthens health, and simply allows you to have fun with the whole family.

Experts argue that the most reliable pool is a stationary pool with a concrete bowl. It is this type of pool that will allow it to be operated with a minimum of costs and unpleasant surprises. But where to start and what is the first "grab", if you decided to build a concrete pool in your dacha?

Professionals claim that the reliability of a concrete pool consists of several components: competent design, high-quality materials used in its construction, and the conscientiousness of the contractor that has taken up the job. Accordingly, we should start with the design, and entrust this work to a team of high-level professionals.

When creating a pool basin project, a number of factors need to be considered. First you need to decide on the purpose of the future basin, then decide whether it is overflow or skimmer, then usually choose the shape of the bowl and the bottom, the dimensions, and, of course, it is important to properly calculate the finances. In addition, it is better to immediately take into account such parameters as finding the technological equipment of the pool, cleaning equipment and the bypass path.

If the project paid attention to all the above features of the planned pool, then you can proceed to an equally important of the initial stages - choosing a place for the bowl.

The pool should be located autonomously from the house and other buildings, otherwise the foundation of the nearby building, and the pool basin, is destroyed. It is important to take into account the fact that the pit should be much larger than the planned pool. For the sprinkling of the bottom, only crushed stone and river sand will do, since it is these materials that divert groundwater. In advance, take care of the final casting procedure - it is strongly recommended to fill the bowl continuously, however, in case of complex construction, the filling is done in two steps. After pouring the concrete bowl must necessarily last at least a month at normal humidity and temperature.

The construction of swimming pools in our time is a frequent phenomenon, but remember that it is impossible to build a quality concrete pool in a short time and this can not be cheap. Often project shortcomings negatively affect the construction process. The clearer and more detailed you represent your future pool, the easier it will be to correctly design it. In order not to incur additional expenses and meet the planned deadlines, it is advisable to order work from one contractor and take care of the necessary equipment and materials in advance. Having created a competent project and choosing the right place for the pool, you will provide a third of its durability and trouble-free operation.
