First level
This is a determining stage in the construction of your pool. Certain works performed in situ, like the preparation of the land, the concrete slab, the
draining... could need the intervention of professionals that will suggest the most adequate solutions.
Select the ideal location, in the sunniest spot possible, taking into account the local regulations (distance from the paths, public rights of way,
networks...) and the landscaping after installing the pool.
Your pool can be installed in these two ways: A-B
Try to not install your pool on recently filled land or unstable land. Whatever type of installation you choose, you should excavate and prepare the
land for levelling.
Attention: in the case that the land is sloping, you need to excavate it for levelling. Do not add soil to level it.
•
The installation should be using a concrete foundation slab. If a foundation concrete slab is used this should be at least 17 centimetres thick.
The pool is assembled after the concrete foundation slab has completely dried (3 weeks). The filter group should be located below the level
of the pool and ideally at the floor level of the pool.
•
The 50 cm excavation is obligatory for your pool to be covered by the guarantee and for your safety (MINIMUM).
PARTIAL OR COMPLETELY IN-GROUND INSTALLATION
According to the nature of the land, you should install a peripheral drainage and connect it to a decompression well. The well will be excavated before the
construction of the pool to avoid that the excavations fill with water during the works. It should be near the pool, a few centimetres lower than the deepest point
of the same and reach up to the surface. The decompression well is located at the most humid point. It acts as an overflow in the case of water infiltrations or clay
soil, starting from the fact that water rises quicker through a tube than through the soil.
