1. Most people would agree that an indoor
swimming pool is a great thing to have. You
can use it for exercise, entertaining family and
friends or just plain relaxation. Yet what
should you do if you find that your indoor pool
has become too small to meet your needs?
The obvious solution is to build an extension,
but is that a practical solution? Here are some
things that those with indoor swimming pools
should think about when considering adding
an extension: The Design What will the pool
and the area surrounding it look like if
extended? The key is the size of the structure
in which the pool is already located. First you
must determine whether it is big enough to
house an extension and what it will look like
when completed. Will there be enough room
for other things you value in your pool
environment, like room to lounge or dance at
parties? Perhaps not just the pool but the
structure in which it is held needs to be
2. extended as well. Costs Even if a pool
extension makes sense from a design
standpoint, you must also bear in mind the
potential costs. Consult with several pool
construction contractors before deciding on
which one to hire so that you get a good
overall view of what the right price should be.
Much will depend on whether you want to
include extras such as a gym or spa or if you
are seeking a unique design. Remember also
that there may be wiring and plumbing issues
created by the pool extension. Maintenance
The costs of a pool extension do not end with
the completion of construction. Now the pool
has to be maintained, and since the pool is
now larger your maintenance costs will
increase as well. Some of these increased
costs can be lowered by better energy
efficiencies such as use of solar heating. Also
lighting can affect expenses, so use energy
saving bulbs and consider installing new
windows in the walls and ceiling where it will
allow natural heat and light to enter. In the
end only you know what you want. Indoor
swimming pools perform many roles in a
person's life, depending upon the owner's
income, the size of the structure in which the
pool is housed and how many people will be
using it. Therefore whether you need an
extension, how much it should cost and
whether you will be able to maintain it in good
3. working condition should be the primary
factors you consider when planning an
extension for your indoor swimming pool.
With a little foresight and commonsense you
should be able to successfully determine
whether a swimming pool extension makes
sense for you.
