Chemicals Dosing
Floating tablet dispenser with chlorine can cause eye or skin irritation and may bleach out the surface of the pool. It is also a very inappropriate toy for children. With the filtration turned off, the chlorine tablet in the skimmer damages the basket and the float of the skimmer.
Place the floating tablet dispenser into the skimmer only while the filtration is active. After filtration is finished, put the dispenser into a plastic container and place it out of the reach of children.
More tips for better pool maintenance
Construction of the pool begins with ground work. After laying out the pool and all trenches excavation work shall be carried out. Here it is necessary to consider the structure of soil and terrain accessibility, and accordingly decide whether excavate by hand or with machinery.
The advantages of mechanization are mainly in the speed and comfort. We must consider whether the machine can get to the property, and whether heavy vehicles will not cause damage. Machine digging has the disadvantage of lesser accuracy, resulting in a greater consumption of concrete or the need for framing.
Hand excavation is more accurate, and friendly to the surrounding environment. It is recommended for finished gardens and hard to reach locations.
As the excavated soil gains volume considerably, its removal should be taken into account. If ground water or excessive surface water is present on your property, drainage system around the pool and the filtration shaft must be installed and connected to the sewer or to a well. We do not assume any responsibility for damage to the pool or its components.
For pouring the foundation slab, we recommend B20 concrete, using two layers of steel mesh. The height tolerance should be ± 5 mm, with overflow pools ± 2 mm. After it cures it is covered with rigid polystyrene (not the common type!) preferably Styrodur. This eliminates small surface imperfections and contributes to a lesser cooling of water in the pool. Foundation slab below the filtration shaft should be made of B15concrete without reinforcements.
After transported the pool to the site, it is set into the hole by hand or crane, (it weights from 250 to 900 kilograms) and then we finalize the installation. When installing an uninsulated pool, we line the walls with polystyrene for thermal insulation and to compensate for thermal expansion. The pipes can be wrapped in foam (TUBEX). When pouring concrete, the pool is filled with water to prevent deformation. If you have a plastic staircase, it should be leveled, check using a level and cemented or mortared in place!
Concrete around the walls is poured gradually, in two stages, always a day apart. We recommend checking the walls for deformation while pouring concrete!
All fields have to be filled.
