How to make a greenhouse pool?

Owners of country cottages and summer cottages very often think about building a swimming pool on their territory. However, an outdoor pool requires constant care and cleaning of various debris. In addition, very often climatic conditions allow the use of this structure for a fairly short time. Therefore, the most relevant and practical is the construction of an indoor pool, for example, right in the greenhouse.

Maintenance of this structure is much easier and easier, it can be used throughout almost the entire spring, summer and half of autumn. Many owners install special heaters in the pools, this allows the structure to be used in almost any weather. It should be noted that the construction of such a structure requires large financial costs, and not everyone can afford it.

These closed designs have many advantages.

• A polycarbonate greenhouse can be purchased ready-made and in the required dimensions. Therefore, installation will not take long.
• The design reliably protects the interior from prying eyes.
• You can use and enjoy the pool in almost any weather.
• Thanks to the polycarbonate coating, the water will warm up much faster and more evenly.
• In such a structure, protection from various insects is always provided.
• In the manufacture of this structure, environmentally friendly materials are used.
• Installation of the structure can be done with your own hands, which can significantly reduce financial costs.
• Indoor pools evaporate much less water.
• The cost of these structures is quite affordable.

Absolutely all family members can use the pool, the polycarbonate cover will reliably protect against various precipitation and temperature extremes. Thanks to the frame treated with special means, the design will delight for many years.

Until now, glass has been a very popular material for covering the walls and roof of greenhouses, but it is a very fragile material. The products were distinguished by their high weight, in addition, glass has a high thermal conductivity.

Thanks to the latest developments, a material such as polycarbonate has appeared, with excellent technical characteristics:

• light weight;
• strength and reliability;
• transmits light well;
• the sun's rays are evenly scattered inside the structure;
• due to the good flexibility and elasticity of the material, you can create any shape;
• increased resistance to atmospheric precipitation and impacts;
• the material is absolutely waterproof;
• resistant to mold and mildew;
• the material has increased resistance to fire;
• easy to sanitize;
• has a long service life;
• a huge variety of models made using a rich color palette.

The choice of a greenhouse for the construction of a pool must be approached carefully. High humidity in a structure means the use of materials with good resistance to corrosion and moisture.

Frames made of galvanized and stainless steel, aluminum, steel profiles with polymer spraying have improved technical characteristics and are resistant to various influences. It is not recommended to purchase frames made of wood and ordinary steel. These structures are susceptible to high humidity and have a short service life.

Greenhouses come in many different shapes.

• Arch design. A distinctive feature of these models is their excellent aerodynamic properties. The most popular and widespread option, the shape of the product ensures unhindered snow cover.
• For round pools very often a domed design is used. Stylish and interesting building will decorate any personal plot. A distinctive feature of this design is its complex installation.
• Greenhouses with pitched and gable roofs. These structures are characterized by low resistance to atmospheric precipitation in the form of snow and strong winds. Installation of these structures will not cause any particular difficulties, you can do it yourself.
• Asymmetrical designs. The frame of this greenhouse consists of one straight side wall and a semicircular one.

When choosing a particular design, it is necessary to take into account the parameters, all the features of the land plot and climatic conditions, the number of family members, etc.

Also, polycarbonate greenhouse designs are divided into two types.

• Low. These structures are mainly used to protect the pool from various debris. Structures are divided into two types: reclining and sliding.
• High. The height of the structure allows you to stay inside the structure, walk, sit, and so on. In such structures, you can install furniture, special heaters. The structure is equipped with doors.

The parameters and dimensions of the pool should be selected individually. Models are divided into two types: recessed and surface mounted. To avoid the erection of high vaults over the pool, it is better to opt for in-depth models.

There are two options for installing the pool.

• The first option is to make a pool bowl with your own hands. To do this, you need to dig a pit. Its dimensions are individual. Next, you need to install the formwork inside the pit, prepare a sand cushion and reinforcement. Then you need to pour concrete. After it hardens, the surface is finished with tiles. This process of making an artificial reservoir takes a lot of time and effort.
• In this case, the pool bowl is selected and purchased at a specialized outlet. The modern market presents a huge assortment of different models of these products. They differ in size, shape and material from which they are made.

Models made of propylene are more popular. These products are distinguished by excellent technical characteristics, increased resistance to temperature extremes and various mechanical and chemical influences. Products made of propylene firmly withstand the movement of the soil, they are sufficiently strong and reliable.

Before lowering the bowl into the pit, you need to carefully tamp the bottom and lay a layer of geotextile to avoid washing out the soil. Further, it is necessary to prepare a sand pillow, only after all the manipulations are completed, the bowl for the reservoir is lowered into the pit.

You can install a polycarbonate greenhouse over the pool with your own hands, without involving specialists.

To do this, you need to choose a greenhouse model that is suitable in shape and parameters, then, all work is performed in several stages.

• It is necessary to fill the foundation with concrete and reinforcement. The depth of the foundation should be about fifty centimeters.
• Next, you need to assemble the structure, exactly following the instructions.
• After that, you need to carefully fix the frame to the foundation. To do this, use special bolted connections.
• Then all arcs and stiffeners must be carefully secured with special fasteners.
• After completing all the manipulations to secure the structure, the frame should be treated with special anti-corrosion agents and painted in the desired color.
• Upon completion of the painting, you can proceed to the sheathing of the structure with polycarbonate, following the previously prepared drawings.

Polycarbonate structures do not require much effort to maintain the structure.

In order for the structure to please for a long time, it is necessary to adhere to certain recommendations.

• The frame made of wood must be periodically inspected in order to timely identify and eliminate various damages. You should also regularly tint the structure.
• A structure made of ordinary steel is also recommended to be tinted periodically in order to avoid the appearance of corrosion.
• The polycarbonate coating should be washed regularly with special detergents.

Making an artificial frame pond in a polycarbonate greenhouse in the country can be quite easy and simple with your own hands. The design of the original form will be a decoration of the site and a favorite vacation spot for the whole family. Reviews of such designs are most often positive.

Self-assembly of the structure will help to significantly save the family budget and guarantee the high quality of the work performed. When installing the structure, environmentally friendly materials are used, this is a guarantee of safety for human health. The pool installed in a polycarbonate greenhouse will delight you for many years.
