In the past I wrote an article where I highlighted and communicated that a well-made infinity pool could not cost less than 70/100 thousand euros for pools up to 50 square meters. Larger pools logically have higher costs.
However, we must make a distinction because, when we talk about high-level swimming pools, we are referring to a superior category of which the infinity edge is only one of the characteristics.
But let's try to deepen the topic more clearly by going into detail.
First of all, what is a high-level swimming pool? We can define it in a very immediate way as a "wow" effect pool, that is, a pool that for technological and aesthetic standards is a step above the others and for this very reason capable of generating amazement and wonder in those who observe it and savor its benefits.
What is a swimming pool of this type characterized by? First of all, of course, we are talking about an overflow pool, where by overflow we do not mean only an infinity pool (panoramic pool), but the construction of the pool with an overflow technology in which the water reaches the top of the pool and overflows above. or just below the edge.
In addition to this, a high-level swimming pool is built with valuable and high-end elements that differentiate it from normal pools of traditional standards.
Here are a few.
WHAT DIFFERENTIATES A HIGH-LEVEL POOL?
LARGE-SIZE
Although (especially for indoor pools) you can have relatively small pools that are real jewels, usually a valuable pool has an appropriate size which is not less than 17/18 meters in length. The gardens of country houses or villas are almost always quite large, so the swimming pool must adapt to the outdoor space and the prestige of the home. It cannot be too small, otherwise you risk not having the right visual impact in the outdoor space of the house.
PRECIOUS FINISH
Surely in a high-level swimming pool one should not think of the PVC liner but of a more precious type of coating such as porcelain stoneware, marble, mosaic. The coating plays a fundamental role in the final result and certainly the choice of the most prestigious materials greatly affects the elegance and refinement of the pool.
LARGE TECHNICAL ROOM
The simplest version to house pumps and filters is the prefabricated technical room. Alternatively, you could opt for the construction of a brick room, with a height of about 120/130 cm. It would be optimal to build it with steps to facilitate entry into it.
A high-level swimming pool would also stand out in this sense because it would have a real medium-sized room, comfortable (h = about 2 meters), which in addition to the technical elements could host a small bathroom with shower and a changing room, to be used during periods where you bathe in the pool and have guests, without having to go into the house and dirty around.
ATTENTION TO DETAIL
Lighting, home automation, steel vents, water features, are all elements that can make a big difference. The high-level swimming pool is certainly equipped with many high-end comforts and accessories. Just as the accessories and details make a car much more beautiful and performing, the same happens with the swimming pool. If you want a top end result, you cannot fail to consider these aspects as well.
CAREFUL GARDEN DESIGN
A simple swimming pool will not be enough to create a suggestive location in the home garden. The surrounding environment must also be furnished with care according to the style you want to give to the outdoors. Wonderful atmospheres can be created by playing around the pool with the colors of bougainvillea, jasmine and aromatic plants.
Considering all the aspects and special elements mentioned above, it is obvious that the cost of a luxury swimming pool cannot be lower than that of a luxury car (150/250 thousand euros). With the difference that a car depreciates a lot after a few years, while the pool keeps its value intact for decades.
TO KNOW MORE
If you want to learn more about the high-end swimming pool you can buy my book "I deserve a wow-effect swimming pool!" in which the subject of the high-level swimming pool is treated focusing on topics such as common mistakes that can be made before and during the works, factors that can be underestimated before construction, the important elements not to be overlooked, the advice that is not never given to customers before purchasing, what kind of company to rely on and how to understand if the choice of the pool is being made taking into account the right elements and the right perspective.
On the other hand, when we talk about swimming pools we are talking about a lot of money. Investing a little time to read a book and knowing exactly which steps to follow or how to move safely, can help you avoid important mistakes from which you can hardly go back.
