Have you been dreaming for a while now about having your very own swimming pool in your garden or home? Swimming Pool Enclosures can make all the difference! Now is the perfect time to plan your perfect pool. Perhaps you already have a pool but it needs some TLC to restore back to its former glory? Either way, Opulent Pools, local to Sussex and Surrey will assist you with any or every aspect of the design and build process. We have been bringing swimming pool fun to homes across the South East for many years, delivering a variety of bespoke swimming pools, either indoor or outdoor in a range of shapes, designs, and styles.
Maybe you have it clear in your mind’s eye how you imagine your ideal pool to be? Opulent Pools will confirm if the build is possible whilst suggesting a slight alternative to improve the functionality or aesthetics that little bit more. An example of this could be the material or finish you opt for or as fundamental as the dimensions you build your pool to. All these factors will have an overall impact on the end result – it’s best to get it right from the off!
You may want your swimming pool to be accessible and usable in all weathers; ie usable all-year-round. One way to achieve this could be through the use of an enclosure. Yes, you’ve guessed it, these are also available in a variety of shapes and sizes too as to fit and compliment the shape of your pool. However, there are several favourite solutions for your enclosure:-
Glazing Materials. A polycarbonate screen enclosure. Traditionally pool enclosures were built from glass and some customers still prefer this look. However, these days it has become popular to opt for a polycarbonate sheet as a substitute for the panes of glass. The properties of this material account for superior physical and chemical properties; shatterproof, durable, easier and safer to install as well as fabricate and customise to a bespoke fit.
The structural components such as wood, steel, and extruded aluminum among others. The properties are such that it is lightweight, has corrosion resistance, is easy to customise, and has superior strength.
In short, opting for a screen enclosure constructed from polycarbonate sheets and aluminum rods is a perfect choice. It is a reliable choice that will serve you well for many years.
When it comes to changing specifications, you need to work closely with a qualified technician. Opulent Pools will take care of this aspect for you so you can be confident that your design is possible from an engineering point of view as well as safe and structurally sound.
Along with the technician we will recommend appropriate materials based on your design requirements. It is important to remember that design must not compromise the quality or strength of the enclosure. The shape of the enclosure will have a significant bearing on the practicality and functionality of your enclosure. Typical tried and tested shapes to consider are:-
This is one of the most common designs in most homes. All designs following this principle should be formed from a semicircular shape. The creativity will go on to make the dome unique.
This type of enclosure design has a flat surface with angled edges. Normally the angle formed is more than 90 degrees. Sections that slide downwards can take any geometrical shape – rectangular, square or triangular. Again, creativity will be down to the technician to achieve a unique design for your pool.
This is a very attractive choice of architecture triangular in nature. The overall design provides a distinctive peak creating a lot more ceiling height within the enclosure creating a very impressive usable space.
These screen pool enclosures have four sides. The four sides peak in the middle of the enclosure at an angle, again, a very popular and attractive option for your swimming pool enclosure.
This creates a stunning roof for your pool. An extension of your home’s existing roof. It is one of the most economical roofs.
In conclusion, Opulent Pools will help you make a choice that bests suits the existing style and character of your home so that you have an enclosure that blends or complements rather than juts out and creates an unsightly juxtaposition with the existing building of your home and surroundings.
Aside from swimming pool enclosure advice, supply and assembly, Opulent Pools can also assist you with the complete installation, whether it is indoor or outdoor through to the type of cover and all season long pool care and maintenance including leak detection and resolution.
