Why make swimming pool drawings

You suppose that plans are useful or even essential to build a swimming pool and you are right. Usually, architects, general contractors or pool builders only provide their clients with a sketchy pool plan. Therefore, the construction of the swimming pool can only be done a general contractor. This option is expensive and doesn’t leave you much choice for construction method, materials and equipment….
But you can take control of your pool project. It will certainly require you to spend some time on it, but we can assure you that it is worth it. Here we explain how to get involved and what you can gain from it.
You are afraid of not understanding our drawings; they have been designed for an easy understanding, even for neophytes of the infinity pool. You are afraid of not having the skills; if necessary, we will be with you during the work.
You will now discover the drawings that we offer you to carry out your project. We also provide a complete list of filtration equipment to be installed in both the swimming pool and the pump room.
Finally, once your project is finished, you are able to understand how your pool works; the hydraulic plans clearly show you where the pipes are and in the pump room drawing all the valves and equipment are mentioned.

The design of the swimming pool

Thanks to this drawing, you will be able to execute properly structural works. All measurements are indicated to avoid errors. The section clearly shows the different depths of water as well as the staircase to access into the swimming pool.
The design of the overflow and gutter is clearly indicated; usually, we attach a detail for a better understanding by the workers.

How to use the construction drawing

From the pool to the pump room

On the general plan of the pool we draw the different pipes layout connecting the fittings of the pool with the equipment in the pump room.
For an easy understanding, we use different colours and the location of each fitting is precisely marked; no risk of error.
To facilitate the plumber’s work, we organise logically all the pipes leaving the swimming pool.
Finally, this piping layout drawing allows you to know the positioning of each pipe; this could be useful some day.

In the heart of the filtration

The pump room is sometimes overlooked by pool professionals because it cannot be seen; yet this is the heart of your installation. Thanks to it, your pool water will be clean and treated properly. In an infinity pool, safety devices must be installed.
The installation drawing designed to the exact dimensions of the room shows all the pipes, necessary valves and equipment in the pump room.  necessary valves are provided and their position is clearly indicated. The plumber will just have to follow the plan.
As owner of the swimming pool, this plan allows you to manage properly the filtration system.

  • or have a good knowledge of masonry and swimming pool plumbing
  • or entrust the work to a general or pool contractor but want to be able to control the quality of the work done.

The pros and cons of this formula

  • Our fees are lower but you may pay more to the company doing the work.
  • We show you the locations of the parts to be sealed but without the measurements.
  • The fittings are mentioned but the pipes layout is not indicated with precision
  • We do not provide a plan of the pump room installation but only a schematics diagram
