A well-thought-out pool project is a successful one. Building a pool is a major undertaking that impacts the lifestyle of future buyers, as the pool will be a living space in its own right. It's therefore important to take the time needed to assess the pool's future use, complete the administrative procedures, and bring your project to life under the best possible conditions.
Location
To mature your swimming pool project, you need to ask yourself the right questions and, above all, make the right choices. Thus, it is essential to determine the location of the swimming pool as the meeting point between the home and the outdoors. The positioning of the swimming pool remains the central criterion of the project since a well-located swimming pool will benefit the greatest number of users. Then, it is necessary to position yourself on the use you wish to make of this swimming pool . Thus, the swimming pool can be used for family purposes (a rectangular shape will then be preferable) or for sports purposes (a swimming lane may be preferred).
Pool size
At the same time, it is worth determining the size of the pool . Nowadays, with the shrinking land area, small pools are becoming increasingly popular.
It is now the swimming pool that adapts to the terrain and not the other way around and the achievements all have the main objective of being the central point of the house. The options offered such as balneotherapy stairs or counter-current swimming will turn your small swimming pool into a large swimming pool .
Professionals are there to advise you and will provide a different external perspective taking into account a set of constraints; such as the dividing lines to be respected or the surrounding pollution of plants or the exposure of the swimming pool . This professional assistance will allow you to consider your project in its entirety.
Once these elements have been taken into account, you can focus on the administrative requirements that remain a reality that should not be overlooked in the construction schedule. There are 3 scenarios for an in-ground outdoor swimming pool :
• If the surface area of the swimming pool < 10 m²: no administrative formalities according to the urban planning code. • If the surface area of the swimming pool is between 10 m² and 100 m² (which represents the vast majority of constructions), a prior declaration of works must be made. • If the surface area of the swimming pool > 100 m², a building permit is required.
