A Complete Guide to Slimline Pools

Slimline fibreglass pools can complement almost any type of backyard space because they are designed following modern and contemporary styles.

A slimline pool offers several advantages compared to regular-sized pools. Its smaller size translates to reduced chemical usage, resulting in cost savings. Additionally, maintaining a slimline pool requires less cleaning time, making it more convenient and time-efficient. Despite its compact dimensions, a slimline pool still provides the same health and wellness benefits as larger pools. Furthermore, it serves as an excellent upgrade to your backyard entertainment area without occupying excessive space. With a slimline pool, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: a practical and low-maintenance pool that enhances your outdoor space and promotes a healthy lifestyle.

Spa Jets: Indulge in the pinnacle of relaxation by incorporating spa jets into your slimline pool. Not only do they provide a soothing massage for your body, alleviating any discomfort, but they also offer the added benefit of resistance for your swimming laps, enhancing your cardiovascular fitness.

Lighting: Illuminate your pool with captivating lighting options that elevate its overall allure. Enhancing both the aesthetic and functionality, well-placed lights not only create a safer nighttime swimming environment but also transform your backyard into a luxurious retreat. By selecting the perfect colors and strategically positioning the lights, you can enjoy a truly resort-like experience right in the comfort of your own home.

How are Slimline Pools Installed?

Using a mould, fibreglass slimline pools are constructed in our state of the art facilities. These factory-made pools are extremely durable. Make sure the installation process is being performed by professional pool installers. Firstly they will discuss with you about council approvals and meeting the regulations. When you choose an experienced pool builder, they generally do most of this work for you. Once council approved, your team will organise soil excavation and then they will set the pool and level it. Next, they will install the pool’s plumbing and filter systems. After that, the pool is backfilled and then the pool is filled with water. Lastly the finishing touches like the patio and coping and the pool fence will need to be finished. Throughout the installation process, your professional pool builders should also keep an eye out for potential bulges, leaks, separation, and settling. Also keep in mind the guarantee options your pool builders provided. A fibreglass from The Fibreglass Pool Company has a lifetime guarantee.

How much does it cost to install a slimline pool?

The number of additional features you choose to include in the build of your slimline pool will ultimately impact the overall cost of your slimline pool. The other aspects that will need to be considered in the total cost of your pool will be the condition of your backyard, any landscaping and fencing requirements and whether you are installing lighting around or to your pool.
