summer.Heat.The holiday season is in full swing.Who would not like to have a pool in the country?Photo of a beautiful home-made pools and are pushing for the construction of their own.After collecting all the will in a fist, having estimated the pros and cons, we say to ourselves: "Why not?" And then begin to actively search for information, questioning experienced on how to make a swimming pool with their hands.
Immediately it should be noted that the self-construction of the pool and its contents are not cheap work and will require considerable financial cost and physical effort, but the decision is made to retreat later.Let's look at a relatively inexpensive way to make a swimming pool with their hands at his dacha.Let's get started.
first thing need to start - is to determine the place for the future of the basin.It is advisable to choose a sunny place, the water in it is better warmed.Lack of closely spaced trees partially deliver us from the question of whether there will be an indoor swimming pool in the country.After falling leaves are a source of additional contamination.We'll have to spend a lot of time and effort to clean.
second important criterion when considering how to make your pool hands - it is his size.Naturally, the more the better, but also the financial costs will increase in direct proportion to its size.The best option for cottage pool will:
-depth of 1,2-1,5m;
-length 2,5-3m;
the width 2,5-3m.
It should be noted that the rounded shape of the pool most harmoniously fit into the suburban landscape, but also require a lot of effort in their implementation.
place chosen, the size and shape also, it's time to start excavation.
digs volume of 15-20 cm larger than the pool - this is the thickness of the walls of the bowl.Two - three days plus one "human power" and is ready to pit.By the way, you need to take care in advance about what to do with the ground.Alternatively, it can be used in the construction of garden paths and hills.
pool Our future is beginning to take its shape.Now you need to take care of waterproofing.As a waterproofing material may even serve as polyethylene and roofing.They need to hide the walls and the bottom of the pit, not forgetting to make allowance in the top 20-30 cm of the edge.If used as a waterproofing roofing material, it is necessary to process bitumen joints (observing safety precautions when handling hot material).The result was a kind of black box.
now on the sides and bottom need to fix reinforcing mesh.It can be purchased or made their own steel wire and rebar diameter of 8-12 mm.If you plan to manufacture skirting by the pool, the edges of the valve should speak up above the pit to a height slightly less than the height of the boards.Optionally, the pool can be provided for draining water with a pump.Then reinforcing mesh is placed at the bottom with a slope of 2-3 degrees, and in one corner using plastic pipes with a diameter of 1.5-2 inches equipped with drainage pipe.
Then you can start concreting the floor, observing bias.To take care of the drain hole, you need to shut it down a wooden or cloth gag.When preparing the concrete cement can be used M-400 at a ratio of 1: 3.For uniform distribution of the concrete used rammer.
After curing of concrete (5-7 days), you can proceed to install the formwork.Its height is considering the future of the sides of the pool.The material is ideal chipboard or plywood previously fixed (by means of the furniture stapler) on the working surface of polyethylene.It is important to set the struts of lumber that during the concreting of the walls to avoid deformation.
So, the pool is ready to bowl.After 7-10 days (to prevent cracking of the concrete all the time pour the cup of water), you are ready for interior decoration.Ideal glass mosaic or tile.
When finishing work has been completed, you can start decorating the pool, because each is best for themselves know how to make a swimming pool with their hands, so it looks also very nice.
