The domestic swimming pools chapter from the CIPHE's Plumbing Engineering Services Design Guide.
Pools have been installed in this country for many years. Although there are some dating back to the nineteenth century, it has only been in the last fifty years that they have become really popular. There are now many companies that have been designing and installing swimming pools for a substantial number of years. It is a large industry with two to three thousand pools being put in each year.
These range from the large leisure centre pool incorporating swimming areas and recreational areas, to the smaller club and school pools, down to the domestic pool in the family home. The primary aim being to provide clear, warm, water that is pollutant free and safe to swim in and enjoy.
The installation of a swimming pool is not a particularly difficult operation, but like most specialities, if you don’t know what you are doing things can go horribly wrong.
