Everything you need to know about the location study for your swimming pool
What is a swimming pool installation study?
A site study is an essential step before building a swimming pool , as it allows you to determine the best location for your future pool. This analysis takes into account several geographical and technical factors to ensure that the chosen site is optimal, both for the durability of the pool and for the comfort of swimmers.
The first step is to check with your local council whether your land is suitable for a swimming pool , i.e. whether it complies with the local regulations in force. This step is crucial to avoid legal complications and to ensure that you can proceed with the installation without any problems, in a manner adapted to your space. Once this validation has been obtained, it will be necessary to submit an application for a building permit or a prior declaration of works, depending on the size and nature of your project.
If your land is compatible with the installation of a swimming pool, you will then have the freedom to choose the ideal location. The implantation study will help you compare different possible sites on your land, by evaluating criteria such as sun exposure, proximity to trees, and possible prevailing winds. This will allow you to install your future swimming pool in the best possible position, thus guaranteeing pleasant and long-lasting use.
Why carry out an implementation study?
Every terrain has its weak points, which the implantation study aims to identify. For example, a sloping terrain may require more significant earthworks, or the proximity of a tree may pose problems with invasive roots.
Therefore, the implantation study allows to analyze several essential criteria before starting the work. The nature of the soil is one of the first elements to take into account: sandy soils , clayey soils or unstable ground could compromise the solidity of your swimming pool in the long term. The climate and the exposure of the garden are also determining factors. A well-oriented swimming pool benefits from optimal sunshine, thus reducing heating costs and increasing comfort of use.
The presence of a water table can also be a challenge when building a swimming pool. If the pool is located at a shallow depth, it is possible that groundwater will exert pressure on the pool structure, especially during draining periods or in the event of a leak. In this case, it becomes necessary to install an adequate drainage system to control this pressure and protect the integrity of the pool. Installing a pressure relief well can also be effective in reducing groundwater pressure and preventing potential damage.
Beyond the technical aspects, the harmony between the pool, the garden and the house must also be considered. A well-thought-out layout will integrate the pool seamlessly into your outdoor space, respecting the overall aesthetics of your property. This approach not only guarantees pleasant use, but also an enhancement of your property.
Carrying out a location study before even requesting a quote for a swimming pool therefore makes it possible to ensure that all the criteria are taken into account for a successful project, without any unpleasant surprises along the way.
