2. GENERAL GUIDELINES

applying to: round-shaped pools, figure-eight-shaped pools, oval-shaped pools

There are a few important guidelines before you start to assemble your pool:

The most important part of the pool is the foil lining.  Swimming pool-foil is a thermoplastic material which expands

under heat and contracts when it gets cold. The lining should be installed at temperatures b 15

° 

C and +25

° 

C degrees because the foil is most easily handled at these temperatures.  At higher temperatures there is danger  to 

overstretch the foil.

Please note also that soft foil can be very easily damaged by improper handling,  so avoid any contact with sharp or

rough objects and do not drag it over concrete or any other floor.

3. Pool location, subsoil

applying to:  round-shaped pools, figure-eight-shaped pools, oval-shaped pools

We recommend to choose the pool site in a sunny area, with no

trees  around  the  pool.  Pay  attention  to  the  wind  direction  and

try  to  position  the  skimmer  facing  the prevailing winds  so  that

----

the wind blows the dirt to the skimmer.

When  the  pool  location  is  found  it  must  be  checked  whether 

Pay attention to

the  ground  is  suitable  for  the  erection  of  the  pool.  A  filled-up 

the wind direction!

ground is not suitable  because it requires considerably more ef­

forts  regarding  the  foundation  (refer  to picture  item  8).  In  such

cases  you  need  to  ask  an  expert  for  professional  help.  Please

make sure that you do not reach the ground water.  We recom-

mend  the  use  of  a  concrete  platform  for  the  erection  of  your 

oval-shaped pool

pool. If there is danger of water flowing down the slope, we recommend to roll up a drainage layer of approx. 20 cm.

The platform should be about 30 cm bigger than the main dimensions of the pool,  and of course it should be level.

When it is armoured with a steel mesh, a thickness of 15-20 cm is sufficient. On this ground the pool stands safe, the

brim cannot sink in,  and the ground is always smooth for cleaning. Welded wire mesh Q 131,  concrete Bn 25.  For fi­

gure-eight-shaped pools, please make sure to incorporate the delivered steel girder base support into the concrete

platform.

Oval-shaped pools require additional supporting side walls to stabilize the pool walls. Supporting side walls must be 

connected to the platform by iron reinforcements (not  part of the delivery).

4. SETTING UP THE POOL ON A SLOPE

applying to: round-shaped pools, figure-eight-shaped

pools, oval-shaped pools

The level area for the pool must not be filled-up, but the surface

prepared  for  the  pool  should  be  on  solid  ground.  The  slope

must be stayed by a wall or  by an embankment.  Never use the

wall of the pool to support the slope. You might want to contact

an engineer engaged in statical calculations.

5. PREPARATION OF THE GROUND

Most of the  oval-shaped pools / figure-eight-shaped pools can

be erected above ground as well as embedded in the ground.

1. Round-shaped pool/ figure-eight-shaped pool as above-ground pools

2. Round-shaped  pool /  figure-eight-shaped  pool  half  sunk  in,  up  to 20  cm  (possible  without  back  filling  with  lean

concrete; for more than 20 cm, back filling with lean concrete is required).

3. Round-shaped pool / figure-eight-shaped pool as  in-ground pool,  with back filling of  lean concrete,  oval-shaped

pool as in-ground pool.
