Have you ever really known about acrylic swimming pools?
Have you ever thought about walking in a transparent pool, looking up at the sky, and looking down at everything. Each transparent acrylic swimming pool has its own unique appearance.
Acrylic infinity pools are made of acrylic sheets, and all conditions in the pool can be seen from the side. The acrylic material has soft light, which well meets the requirement of more than 93% light transmittance of the swimming pool material, and also makes the visual effect more gorgeous. In addition, the impact resistance of acrylic is more than 100 times that of ordinary glass and more than 16 times that of tempered glass. It is the perfect safe and durable building material for an endless swimming pool.
In addition, the design and construction of transparent acrylic swimming pools also involve many aspects. Structural engineering must be carried out correctly to maintain the water level.
What is an acrylic swimming pool? What are the advantages compared to traditional ordinary swimming pools?
In modern architectural design, acrylic swimming pools can also be divided into sky pools, courtyard pools, villa pools, suspended pools, infinity pools, etc., which are widely used in leisure and vacation homestays, hotels, residences, villas and clubs. The emergence of acrylic swimming pools has changed the traditional application mode and concept of swimming pools. It is no longer just a carrier for people to swim, but more of a leisure and comfortable atmosphere.
Acrylic, the raw material for making swimming pools, has high light transmittance, with a light transmittance of more than 93%. Acrylic has a mild light transmittance and a more beautiful visual effect. The impact resistance of acrylic is more than 100 times that of ordinary glass and 16 times that of tempered glass. The thickness of ordinary tempered glass is less than 20mm, while the thickness of acrylic can reach 800mm. Acrylic can withstand heavier and greater impact, while tempered glass cannot.
Acrylic has good processing performance and can be machined and thermoformed. Acrylic thick plates can also be seamlessly spliced on site by injecting special formula stock solution. However, tempered glass cannot be processed, split, or spliced. Therefore, it cannot meet the requirements of larger transparent whole plates, but acrylic can.
The design of acrylic swimming pools requires designers to give reasonable solutions based on the actual situation of the site, combined with customer needs and budget. The design of an acrylic swimming pool should be considered from many aspects: quality is the principle, followed by beauty, the difficulty of installation and construction of acrylic swimming pools, water treatment of swimming pools, customer experience, etc.
The design process of an acrylic swimming pool cannot be summarized in a few simple sentences. It is necessary to understand the site conditions: site size, weather temperature, construction difficulty and many other factors before a design plan can be given.
