Elevate Your Outdoor Swimming Space With Poolscapes Vermont LLC in Colchester, VT

The pool design and installation process is a combination of function, art and science.

Function:

We start with function. How does the client plan on using their pool. Is it mostly just for grandkids? Or is it for exercise too? This input will guide the selection of the size and shape of the pool. It will also help us choose the best location in the yard.

Art:

When we meet with the client to decide where the pool is going we consider the aesthetic components. We consider views from the house and desired screening from neighbors. We think about the other 6 months of the year when the pool is not in use. We think about fencing versus Auto covers and the impact they will have. We consider the architecture of the home and the client’s style which also informs the selection process of shapes and sizes of the pool.

Science:

The technical or science side of the design includes a mix of civil engineering, hydrology and chemistry. We consider the cut fill calculations and appropriate elevation for the pool surface in relationship to the existing contours of the property. We consider the volume of water of the pool and location of the pump. This guides decisions around filtration and sizing of the conduit and pool pump. The sanitization of the pool brings in the chemistry component. We provide salt, UV light and ionization options to minimize chlorine use and maximize swimming enjoyment.
