Self Build

For many of our customers a more cost-effective way to have their own Waterair pool is to buy the modular kit and install it themselves.

This is not as difficult as it may first appear, as the pools come with very easy step-by-step instructions, which, if followed correctly, make the installation simple and satisfying. Alternatively, any qualified builder or tradesman would have no difficulty at all with this construction. Click here to see us building a pool

Excavation
Carefully mark out the contours of the swimming pool and excavate the soil to the prescribed depth. The use of an excavating machine is favoured so suitable access to the site would be required

Assembly of the poolwall
Then assemble the straight or undulating sections by the means of the double bolt fixing.
Stabalisation of the side walls
With supports to be screwed into predrilled holes of the poolwall, you stabalise the sidewalls and obtain their perfect vertical position. The supports are then anchored into the bottom and become invisible after covering the pool border.
Installing the pool bottom
The pool bottom consists of a concrete and sand screed about 5cm thick, which is protected by a cover. Spread the screed out over the surface, either on the soil or on a layer of fine rubble.
Placing the liner
Fix the liner on the top of the pools walls. Small differences in the pool bottom will be compensated with this system, so the liner flattens out, being pressed onto the pool wall by the pressure as soon as the pools is filled.
Assembly of the pool border
Having installed the water circulation system and flattened out the liner around the pool we can move to the final phase, laying the coping stones on the side wall. The swimming pools is now ready to be used.
The finishing touch
Creating a space around the pool can be achieved with the option of many materials, natural stone, cobblestones or wood flooring.
