Why choose a mini pool?
Why choose a mini pool?
Posté leThe mini pool is on the rise and we can easily say that this success is deserved.
With their busy daily lives, future pool owners are looking for well-being free from constraints within their own homes.
No administrative formalities
First, a pool with dimensions smaller than 10m² does not require administrative formalities. There is no need to submit a prior declaration of works or a building permit to the town hall.
However, this simplicity does not exempt owners from complying with certain regulations, particularly regarding the structure's location in relation to neighboring properties and public roads. The law generally imposes a minimum distance of 3 meters to preserve privacy and ensure good integration into the environment. This distance may, however, vary depending on local specificities, so it is crucial to inquire with the urban planning department of your municipality by consulting the Local Urban Plan (PLU).
Integration on all types of land
Previously, owning a pool was often associated with vast outdoor spaces, with pools from the 1980s/90s reaching up to 72 m². The trend towards reducing land area has led to a notable evolution in the world of residential pools, favoring the rise of mini pools. These, thanks to their adaptability and reduced size, harmonize perfectly with more restricted spaces, representing a godsend for owners of small plots. The design of these pools, conceived to integrate into various environments, allows them to be installed on almost any terrain, whether small, atypical, or even sloping. Therefore, having a small plot is no longer a barrier to building a pool.
The small pool is well-equipped
These small pools are designed to accommodate all comfort equipment. Despite their smaller volume, these pools are much better equipped than before and can include heating equipment, automatic treatment systems, and counter-current swimming. Thus, they align with the trend of better living and well-being at home.
A less energy-intensive pool
Finally, the mini pool is an economical pool. First, in terms of purchase price, as it requires less construction material and the labor cost is adapted to its size. In terms of consumption and equipment, costs are also proportional to the pool: the water volume is much lower than that of an average-sized pool, and the consumption of water treatment products is proportional to the volume. Finally, current heating systems are more efficient but also less energy-consuming due to the small volume of water.
Choosing a mini pool is therefore both economical and ecological, allowing owners to benefit from a beautiful relaxation area in their garden or simply the comfort
