Salt Pools Project 14

This pool and spa combination exudes boldness and is ready for all entertainment and relaxation needs. The luxurious spa is generously sized at 2.6m x 2.6m and features a spillover into the pool, oozing opulence and character.

The surface of the pool is tiled with beautiful ceramics, which gives the pool its gorgeous, blue hue. Although the pool and the spa are a cohesive masterpiece with water flowing from one to the other, the contrasting hues allow them to each make bold statements of their own within this modern design. This clearly differentiates the pool which is perfect for exercise and leisure, from the spa, which acts as more of a relaxation zone. The clients were a family who wanted a space where they could entertain or relax together with a pool that would make its presence noticed.

Previously a simple, grassed backyard, adding the pool transformed the outdoor space into a showpiece sure to impress. The pool also faces the rear of the house, making it the stunning focal point of the backyard.

The pool features a PV3 Automatic Pool Cleaning System from Paramount, an AstralPool filter and an EQ18 AstralPool salt chlorinator, as well as a 350-meg Viron gas heater and two underwater lights to ensure it can be enjoyed year-round. All the equipment has timers, as well as solar heating, for energy efficiency and ease.
