Everything you need to know about small in-ground pools
Posté leCommonly referred to as small pools or XS pools, pools with dimensions less than 20 m² are those.

When the surface area of the pool is less than 10 m², it is called a "mini pool". The small pool or mini pool comes in different shapes, although rectangular or square shapes are more popular.
The advantages of a small in-ground pool
- The small pool fits perfectly into small plots. It takes up little space and gives owners the opportunity to design other amenities (dining area, landscaped beach).
- Any swimming pool with a surface area of 10 m² or less does not require any administrative formalities. It is therefore not necessary to make a prior declaration of work. However, this does not exempt the future owner from complying with the regulatory distances from the neighborhood or the public highway mentioned in the Local Urban Plan.
The construction of this type of swimming pool is greatly facilitated from an administrative point of view and in terms of the duration of construction of the project (the processing time for a prior declaration is 1 month). - The small in-ground pool or mini pool has a lower maintenance cost due to its small water volume, which requires fewer treatment products. Owners therefore prioritize user comfort over the size of the pool and do not hesitate to equip their pool with comfort equipment (automatic water treatment, heating, counter-current swimming, cover). For the same budget, some prefer a well-equipped mini pool to a swimming pool without equipment.
Very fashionable and in line with new consumption patterns (consuming better), the small in-ground pool or mini-pool is no longer reserved solely for small plots of land located in cities or the provinces. It remains accessible to all and proves that the in-ground pool is no longer reserved for large spaces.
