Made of polypropylene with their hands

Made of polypropylene with their hands

pool of polypropylene with their hands to make easier and faster than heavy concrete.

In the text below, we consider the construction of swimming pools made of polypropylene from all sides (video included), and you will realize that every homeowner is able to make their own hands a swimming pool at his dacha.

15 reasons to choose the Polypropylene pool:

  • low heat transfer - the construction does not require isolation, so as polypropylene itself well keeps stable water temperature;
  • High strength - well bent, resistant to shocks;
  • Bowl does not need lining and trim - polypropylene has a finished look;
  • material is resistant to aggressive media - acids, alkali and ultraviolet light.Thus their original properties it retains up to 20 years;
  • Operating temperature - from a terrible cold minus 70 up to the hot weather, which only can be;
  • Sealed - 100%!
  • on polypropylene does not breed algae, fungus and other organics.This means that you save on good means for pool maintenance.
  • extensive range of colors: blue, blue, blue, green, light green, gray and so on.The paint is almost does not fade and does not fade, except that after 20 years, a little brighten.
  • Nuance technology, namely, polifuzionnaya welding - allows for pools of any shape and size.
  • Installation of equipment (skimmer, ladder, sewage, discharge) takes place directly in the polypropylene sheet directly before installing the cup itself by bolting and gaskets;
  • There is no need to design the pool, cook a bowl of concrete, to carry out sealing, dub bowl, perform the waterproofing and the lining;
  • Polypropylene pool 3 times cheaper any concrete;
  • optimum ratio of price and quality, the functionality is not inferior to the usual capital pool of concrete;
  • Setting pool takes 1-2 weeks;
  • Polypropylene - a clean, solid and environmentally friendly material.

Technical aspects of the pool arrangement

Polypropylene pool at the cottage is simple in construction, but it does not mean that there are some nuances that need to be taken into account.

pool is better positioned closer to the bath, the sauna, so before it did not have long to go.The level of the land should be fairly smooth - without additional mound of soil, leveling the landscape.

Close to the pool should be no vegetation, or foliage, insects and dust from the tree will slowly, but surely settle on the water and clog the filter.Water

, moreover, can start a "bloom", if there is no filter.

If the vegetation is, you can quickly make the walls of the foam blocks or plastic with a makeshift roof, put windows and get an indoor swimming pool.Let

and expensive, but in any case, once you have spent, what will be constantly clean the filter, change water, flavoring it with chemicals.technical room device - optional.

It is not necessary, unless the pool you do not prohibitively large.Usually constructed technical pit.

Location Communications

Communications - one big caveat, because we have decided to write a separate item.

The supply of water in the pool can be made through the nozzle or hose from the pump well.In the first case, a separate pipeline, highway crashes into reverse return of water in the pool.

mounted faucet that supplies water to the bowl.In the case of wells used only hose pump is so powerful - it's easy and cheap.

Regarding drainage of water from the pool, there are two ways:

  1. means of filtering systems.Embedded with sewage drain fitting and using a hose or pipe diameters wide.As an option - can be installed in the trunk storm sewers;
  2. Using a submersible pump which will drain the water in the ditch.Some of the water will remain in the bowl and it will need to collect sponge.

Groundwater require drainage layer at the site.This is important, otherwise the bowl may crack.

Instructions manufacturing

Before production of the basin, it is necessary to carry out preparatory work.Usually, the first thing - this design.

In this case, you need to decide the size and shape of the bowl, and the depth is decisive: European standard depth of 1-1.65 meters, but there is an option to the bottom of a slope (one or two), in which the depth of 1-2 times vary considerably -from 1 meter up to 3.

of course, this will increase the length of the pool, but you can put a trampoline.When selecting a bowl, note that the more and unusual shape of her, the more time you will need to care and water filtration.

Installation begins with the structure of the scheme - where the pool is located.

cup size dictates the following caveat: according to the perimeter of the bowl to do 1 meter flat, non-slip pad for movement.We turn now to the step by step instructions with the video.

Excavation

If the site is fenced, excavator does not help, even though he could dig a pit in just 1-2 hours.
Determined to place the pool facilities?

Beat pegs and pull the rope between them exactly in shape pool.Rope and stakes to create a template for the digging of the pit.

The layout and also lays the height + side of the pool under a bowl pit should be 50 cm deeper than the bowl (if the pool depth - 1.5 meters, the pit is dug for all of 2 meters).

Smooth out the bottom of the pit, lay a geotextile, pour gravel pit - pillow 30 cm thick.

Part of the land after the return to the place of excavation.At this stage, you need to also make a pillow under the drainage system, which will protect the bowl from the hydrostatic pressure (as in the video).

Installation of reinforcement mesh

necessary to lay drainage grid after tamping: around the bottom of the pit put a brick on it fit mesh with the cell at least 25 cm so that it rises at 5 cm above the rubble.

Put beacons of pipes, fasten a plaster solution.Fill the bottom of the concrete mixture - this will tie for the cup.

Construction of the pool

After pouring should get a plate of 20 cm in thickness, which is 50 cm around the perimeter of the bowl than size.

Paul would start 7-10 days.After drying, laid on the concrete insulation (foam) and gidrotekstil.

Assembly

bowl can deliver the finished bowl once, but not every site can be delivered in its entirety.Putting the seams in the drawing, the pre-cut out the bottom, and a side stage.

sheets are connected to the outside of the welding heat (equipment take rent) in the bottom of the pit put polypropylene in the form the bottom of the pool: the edges are placed side, welding is performed from inside and outside - double seam.

When the cup is ready, step and welded stiffeners on the sides of the perimeter of 50 cm from each other.Once the installation is complete bowl mounted bottom drain, the hydraulic system, lighting.

After verification, you can fill the cup: put the spacer outside the bowl, cover with a protective sleeve all the pipes.

After collecting the formwork around the bowl, type in a bowl of water up to 30 cm and fill with concrete flush with the water level in the bowl and wait for drying.

After 24 hours, fill the pool for the next 30 cm and 30 cm and fill with concrete.Once the formwork is dry, covered with sand all the remaining space.

remains only to equip the area around the pool and you're done.
