Assembly and Operating Instructions 'Basic' Pools
English
11
CHOOSING A LOCATION
Please clarify first if the selected swimming pool
can be built at the chosen location without a building
permit and without further official formalities. Please
take into account that there must be no pipes (gas,
water, electricity, telephone, etc.) in the installation
area of your new swimming pool. Built-in swimming
pools (inground, semi-inground) must not be
installed in the area of strata water or ground water.
Sunny location
: We recommend to select
a location that provides a maximum of solar
radiation per day.
Trees
: There should be no trees in the
immediate vicinity of the pool, since they may
cause pollution (foliage, needles, pollen) and
excess shading.
Wind
: Use the main wind direction in such a way
that dirt that falls on the water surface is driven
towards the skimmer.
Logistics/neighbours
: To operate your
swimming pool, you need electricity (protected
by a residual current circuit breaker), water to
refill, and a sewage connection/sewer pipe. You
should place the pool as close to the house
as possible, if necessary next to the terrace.
However, you should always ensure that
technical problems will not result in damage to
the house (e.g. leaking water flowing into the
basement). Be also careful that neighbours are
not disturbed excessively, and ensure that the
site is well protected (privacy), if possible.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT ACCESSORIES
There are number of useful accessories for your
swimming pool, some of which are difficult or
impossible to retrofit. This primarily includes all
built-in parts such as floor drain (which contributes
significantly to an improved water circulation),
additional inlet nozzles, submersible floodlights for
recessed installation, integrated countercurrent
systems, etc. Other components can be installed
later (e.g. solar power system, heat pump, safety
cover, etc.). It is advisable, however, to consider
what you may want to add later at the time when the
pool is initially installed.
Important information to be
