Hello World! Welcome Friends! There are no two ways around it – a swimming pool is an amazing garden addition. Without even going into the health benefits of a regular swimming habit (of which there are many!) does anything beat sunny Sundays by the pool with a cocktail and the occasional dip to cool off? Not to mention that this addition can be a fantastic way to add value and increase the usage that your yard enjoys.
The only trouble is that there’s a whole load to think about before this dream becomes a reality, including your pool’s style, the best pool tiles, and, as we’ll discuss here, your pool’s positioning. After all, this is a significant garden overhaul, and you need to get it right the first time or risk ruining your outdoor oasis altogether. The question is, where exactly should your pool go?
Consider your Water Supply
While personal preference does matter, there are also significant practical focuses to consider here. Most notably, you’ll want to position your pool in a place with easy access to your water pipes. While it is possible to place a pool away from these, the excavation work is rarely worth the effort. By instead choosing a position next to existing waterways, a plumber can get your pool filled, running and filtered with as little upheaval as possible. This will make installation much less stressful and, more importantly with summer approaching, a whole lot faster.
Think About Usage
Another practical consideration is to think about how easy your pool will be to use. Specifically, you need to remember that you and the rest of the family will be running too and from, most likely dripping wet and barefooted. With this in mind, and from a pure safety standpoint where kids are involved, it might be worth positioning your pool close to the house. That way, it’s easy to dart in and out and you can keep an eye on things. That said, if you have the space, you could always incorporate outdoor swimming huts or a sauna next to a pool that’s a little further afield to enjoy much the same levels of ease without ruining your view.
How’s it Going to Look?
That leads nicely onto our last point, which is to consider how your pool is going to look. After all, as beneficial as they can be, pools aren’t always the prettiest, especially when you remember that you’ll need to get rid of greenery to make space. Luckily, there are plenty of aesthetically pleasing pools out, with some incorporating foliage-rich islands and more. And, all you need to do to enjoy them is to work with a custom pool designer from day one. They’ll be able to take your vision and run with it, ensuring a design that fits the theme of your home and enhances rather than hinders your outdoor space.
Pools are positive garden additions for sure, and, as you can see, a little forethought is all it takes to stop pool positioning running laps around you.
