Full cycle of designing any kind of pools
A pool is a complex and specific element in your project
We know all the pitfalls and will help you avoid unnecessary work
Why it is necessary to involve technologists
at the early stages of pool design
It is necessary to place the basin correctly, taking into account the specifics of the particular pool. Therefore, for any pools it is necessary to provide places for routing utilities. A pool can be skimmer-type or overflow-type.
An overflow pool has an overflow gutter. It occupies space and can affect the pool's placement.
An overflow pool has an overflow gutter. It occupies space and can affect the pool's placement.
For example, when planning an overflow pool you need to consider not only the pool size, but also the gutter and its external finish. The width of the gutter and the width of the gutter rims depend on the overflow system used. This can be a traditional grate, a ceramic one, a combined type, or ready-made solutions from manufacturers. All of this requires involvement and elaboration at the stage of planning the room with the pool. But there are other nuances that may not be immediately apparent.

• how much heat is needed to heat the pool
• where and what type of sewage connection to provide

The technical room must have sufficient dimensions to accommodate the required equipment. An important consideration in high-end projects is the logistics of service personnel across the site or house, and the delivery of chemicals and tools for the pool.
Also, for overflow pools it is necessary to provide compensating tanks. Their size depends not only on the pool size, but also on the location and design/construction of the tanks themselves.

We are aware of all the latest innovations and technologies related to pool finishes
• mosaic and porcelain tiles
• finishes for the surrounding area
• concealed overflow systems from leading manufacturers
• optimal ways to make the pool aesthetically pleasing

As a result, we help sort out all the nuances of pool construction already at the early stages of design. For example, we can clarify the client's preferences in the pool's visual and functional components. How to correctly determine the pool's building footprint and the dimensions of the basin structures. Then we determine the sizes of technical rooms and compensating tanks.
At later stages we will calculate the loads on the electrical networks, water supply, heating and sewage. We will advise where niches and passages for utilities should be provided when designing adjacent sections so that you have no remaining questions

Our work — Your confidence
Why companies choose us for pool design
10 years of experience in the construction industry
During this time we have designed and built more than 30 projects. From small private to large public pools. This allows us to foresee in projects those details that “theorists” may not notice. To take into account not only certain parameters and dimensions, but also to think through the convenience of installation, service logistics and maintenance.
Compliance with rules and regulations
In our work we strictly comply with all current norms and professional standards, including applicable GOST, SanPiN, and SP. When developing projects we pay special attention to safety, the reliability of structures, and the efficiency of all engineering systems. We strive to ensure that each project is not only technically correct but also convenient to implement and maintain.
Types of work
We perform when designing swimming pools
At this stage our team develops the overall concept of the pool: the layout, the type of pool shell, depths, the location of zones (swimming, attractions, children’s area), as well as the visual style. Preliminary schemes for equipment placement and technical rooms are formed. The pool designer participates in shaping the architectural concept, issues requirements for the space of the technical zone, and prepares schematic diagrams of water treatment and equipment placement. EP materials may include 3D visualizations, justification of the architectural appearance of the shell, and preliminary calculations.
The pool designer coordinates with the architect on forming the geometry of the shell, levels, stairs, edges, skimmers or overflow channels. They participate in producing cross-sections of the shell and determine the need for embedded elements for technological devices. They define requirements for finishing materials (tiles, waterproofing) and for the zoning of technical rooms. They also agree on pipeline passages, fill levels, and installation tolerances.
This is the main specialist section. Calculations of recirculation are performed and pumps, filters, UV units, and dosing systems are selected. A technological scheme of water treatment is produced, equipment is selected, and an explanatory note and parameter tables are developed. The designer specifies pipe routing and locations of embedded parts, and coordinates with AR, KЖ, and ЭОМ. Operational conditions are also set, including backwash regimes, laboratory control, and chemical treatment.
• Architectural and structural cross-sections
• Explanatory note, hydraulic diagram
• Schemes for installing embedded parts and for laying pipelines and cable products from the shell to the technical room
• Preliminary layout of the technical room
• Issuance of the technical assignment for related sections (KЖ, OViK, ЭОМ)
• Architectural and structural cross-sections
• Explanatory note, hydraulic diagram
• Schemes for installing embedded parts and for laying pipelines and cable products from the shell to the technical room
• Preliminary layout of the technical room
• Issuance of the technical assignment for related sections (KЖ, OViK, ЭОМ)
The pool designer provides input data for the reinforced concrete designer: shell dimensions, pipe passages, and anchor points for embedded parts. Together they determine reinforcement in the area of technological openings, floor levels in the room, the apron, hatches, and channels. If necessary, equipment loads are clarified.
This section provides power to all technological pool equipment: pumps, filters, dosing stations, UV units, as well as lighting for the shell and auxiliary rooms. The technology (ТХ) designer supplies ЭОМ with the list of consumers, technical specifications, and operating modes. Grounding of equipment, the need for backup power, cable ducts, and filtration automation are also coordinated.
Our works
Tasks completed during the design process:
- Section EP. The concept for the pool's internal layout was developed, including depths, sun lounger space in the water, benches, stairs, and the location of the attractions. A preliminary visualization of the pool was completed. The visualization was created in Sketchup.
- Section AR. The construction of a separate technical room was approved. The placement of expansion tanks under the pool was approved.
- Section TX. The TX section was developed. All drawings, footnotes, explanations, and specifications were bilingual. Equipment from the local Indonesian market was used in the development.
