Two slatted covers. Two different approaches. 🏊‍♂️

When it comes to integrating an automatic slatted pool cover, the positioning of the cover pit can make a real difference to the overall design and finish of a swimming pool.

🔹 Option 1: Behind the pool wall
The slatted cover is housed in a dedicated pit behind the pool wall, keeping the mechanism neatly concealed while maintaining a clean poolside appearance.

🔹 Option 2: Beneath the pool floor
The slatted cover is housed in a pit beneath the pool floor, creating a discreet, integrated solution with the potential for an uninterrupted poolside finish.

Both options have their advantages, and the right choice depends on the pool design, available space, construction requirements and desired aesthetic.

It’s all about getting the detail right from the very beginning.

Which solution would you choose — behind the wall or beneath the floor? 👇

🔧 Sometimes, plant rooms end up in the strangest of places! 🏊‍♂️😂

We recently completed a beautiful indoor swimming pool, which we’re now submitting for the SPATA Awards 🏆 — but this project came with a little unexpected challenge!

The space originally intended to house the swimming pool plant had already been taken up by the air handling, heating and boiler equipment… 😅

So, what did we do? We made our own space, of course! 💪 And we knew exactly where to look… UNDER THE POOL WE’D BUILT WITH OUR OWN HANDS! 👷‍♂️🔩

It’s certainly a unique spot for a plant room, and it does make signing the pool over, labelling the equipment and carrying out those final checks a tad more interesting! 🤣

But where there’s a will, there’s a way — and we always find a solution! 💦

🌧️ Rain or Shine, We Keep Your Pool Looking Fine! 💦

Even as we begin winterising our clients’ pools, it’s still worth keeping them clean for a little longer. After all, even with a lovely safety cover in place, dirt, debris and those pesky leaves can still find their way in! 🍂

And do we mind cleaning pools in this lovely rainy weather? Not one bit! 😂 It’s all part of keeping our clients’ pools in tip-top condition all year round.

Regular pool maintenance, both summer and winter, helps protect your investment, keeps your equipment in the best possible condition and helps avoid any nasty surprises when the warmer weather returns. ☀️🏊‍♂️

Look after your pool through every season, and it’ll be ready for you when summer comes around again! 💙

💦 NEW LOOK, SAME GREAT POOL CARE! 💙

We’re excited to introduce our new range of swimming pool chemicals, now proudly branded with our own logo and full company details! 🏊‍♂️✨

As we prepare for the winter season, these new products will be replacing our current chemicals, ensuring we continue to provide the quality care and protection your pool deserves.

❄️ Winter Pool Care Is Here! ❄️

From next week, all pools being closed for the winter will be treated with our Winter Algaecide to help prevent algae growth and keep your pool water green-free throughout the colder months, ready for reopening in April! 🌿💧

A little winter preparation goes a long way towards a cleaner, healthier pool ready for the new season! ☀️

Thank you for choosing us to look after your pool all year round. 💙

🍂 Preparing Your Pool for Winter! ❄️

As we gradually begin winterising our clients’ pools, we’re switching off the heating systems on pools that are no longer in use for the season.

This means each heat pump is carefully drained down, cleaned and covered to protect it throughout the colder months. 💦🔧

Why is the cover so important? Well, we’ve learnt from experience over the years! 🐭 One little mouse once decided that the pipework inside an uncovered heat pump was the perfect place to make a home! Needless to say, it wasn’t quite the surprise we wanted to discover when summer came around! 😂

A little preparation now helps protect your equipment, prevent unwanted visitors and avoid unexpected surprises when it’s time to get your pool back up and running next season.

Winter care now means peace of mind for summer! ☀️🏊‍♂️

🍂 Why We Continue to Valet Pools Until the End of October! 💦

After a lovely, long summer, the weather has certainly taken a turn! 🌧️ As we head into the colder months, we’re now preparing for our winter pool shutdowns.

We continue to valet our pools throughout October to help ensure the water is clean, balanced and ready for winter. This allows the winter chemicals to do their job throughout the cold, wet and dreary months ahead.

It’s also the perfect time to remove falling leaves and those pesky helicopter seeds from sycamore trees before they end up in your pool! 🍁

All our clients have now been given their winter shutdown dates, and those continuing with winter visits and inspections have their schedules in place.

A little preparation now goes a long way towards protecting your pool over winter and making the spring opening that much smoother! ✅

💧 The Heart of Every Swimming Pool! 🏊‍♂️

Behind every beautiful swimming pool is a plant room that makes it all work!

Here’s a look inside a swimming pool plant room we’ve installed in one of our clients’ gardens. 🔧

Every valve has a purpose, every pipe has a job, and every piece of equipment plays an integral role in keeping the pool running efficiently. From pumps and filtration to water circulation and treatment, everything works together to maintain clean, clear water.

A well-designed plant room is the heart of the pool — often unseen, but absolutely essential! 💦

It’s all in the detail, and quality is in every component. 👌

🍂🍁 LEAVES: 1 — SKIMMER BASKET: FULL! 🍁🍂

We popped round to one of our lovely clients’ pools recently and discovered a skimmer basket that was practically hosting its own autumn leaf festival! 😂🍃

We know it’s that time of year when the leaves are falling faster than we can say “pool maintenance”… but here’s your friendly reminder! 👇

🧺 Please remember to empty your skimmer basket regularly, even if you have a maintenance contract.

When it’s packed full of leaves, your pool’s filtration system can’t do its job properly. Think of it like trying to hoover your house with a vacuum cleaner bag stuffed to the brim! 🧹😅

✅ Check your skimmer basket regularly
✅ Empty out those pesky leaves
✅ Keep the water circulating and your pool looking its best

🍂 A little basket emptying now can save you a lot of hassle later!

Let’s keep the leaves on the ground (or in the compost bin), not taking over your swimming pool! 🏊‍♂️😂

We’ve been looking after and maintaining this stunning pool throughout the summer, and now we’re into October, we can’t believe just how beautiful it’s still looking! ✨ The crystal-clear water, sparkling in the autumn sunshine, really does speak for itself.

Regular pool maintenance makes all the difference in keeping your pool looking its best, and we’re proud to help our clients enjoy their pool for as long as possible. 💙

A little reminder that with the right care and attention, your pool can continue to look incredible long after summer has passed! 🍂🏊‍♂️
