Design is much more than just shapes
When attempting to create a “Yardstick” of measurement between pool builders realize shape is only the beginning to a well planned design concept. The obscure elements of design involving the often hidden components such as the plumbing system can have a far greater impact on the functionality and operational cost over the life of your pool.
QUESTIONS TO ASK
- How many Main Drains will my pool have and what size is the plumbing?
- How many Skimmers will my pool have and what size is the plumbing?
- What is the overall distance between my pool equipment pad and the actual pool?
Note: If your pool builder can’t answer these questions upon presenting a design you can assume the intentions for your installation were meant to be vague.
