The Next Big Thing in Swimming Pool Installation

Swimming pool installations are on everyone’s wishlist. Thus, people tend to have separate investments for this purpose. The more the investment, the more lavish can be your pool, thus there is no limit to design and detailing.

Many people look for trends that can make their backyard landscaping step out from mainstream designs while having a personal statement of their own. 2018 saw many such trends. With the year 2019 approaching fast, we can easily guess the next big thing(s) in the swimming pool installation industry.

Top 4 Swimming Pool Installation Trends in Toronto!

1. Lap Pools

Lap pools are made to be used for fitness as they offer many health benefits. These pools are long and narrow, in a rectangular shape. They are great for houses with less backyard space.

2. Compact Pools

Cities like Toronto are famous for their compact pools. These are also known as Plunge pools and are ideal for homeowners with small backyard space.

3. Mineral Water Pools

Mineral Water Pool Installations are for health-conscious people who are looking for an alternative to chlorinated and saline water. Any pool can be converted into a mineral water pool by changing the pool’s water system. The mineral water pool’s system has silver and copper inside its ionization unit. There are some pleasant benefits of mineral water pools when compared to the pools with Chlorine or Saltwater system plants, like:

• Cleaner Water
• No cloudiness
• No red or itchy eyes, as chemicals are not used.
• Easy pool maintenance
• Keeps your skin silky and smooth even after taking a dip/spending time in the pool
• Has magnesium chloride that helps to detoxify the body

4. Infinity Pools at Home

This year, the infinity pools shifted from hotels and resorts to the backyards of many Canadian homes, and the trend is expected to continue in 2019 as well. Help yourself have a resort-like swimming pool installation by installing an infinity pool in your backyard.

Choosing any of these trends for a new pool installation depends completely on the space available in your backyard. Thus, you should consider a few points while picking a location for your swimming pool installation.

How To Select The Pool Installation Location

Consider the following aspects for selecting a swimming pool area or location in your backyard.

• Sun Exposure

If you live in a country like Canada, this becomes the most crucial aspect. Sun exposure helps to keep your pool water warm, naturally, thus cutting a bit down on your electricity cost of running a pool heater.

• Wind Exposure

Swimming pool installation with proper wind exposure lowers the humidity, thus decreasing evaporation. This is important for homeowners who have indoor pools as they generally need to work on this.

• Storage

Look for a pool installation that allows you to have ample space for storage for your floaties swimming pool filters and other pieces of equipment for the off-season.

• Sight Lines

This has to be considered by homeowners with children. Choosing a location that is in close visibility from an indoor living space will let you keep an eye on the pool area without you stepping out from your home.

• Accessibilities

Look for an area with better accessibility and in close proximity to your backdoor. Plan the entrance and exit towards the pool installation to have a clutter-free backyard landscape.

Fibre Glass pools are pre-designed pools in different shapes. They can be easily placed both in-ground and above-ground.
