Choosing a small swimming pool has considerable advantages in reducing costs, saving water and energy, and withstanding the extreme heat of summer this year 2024.
Small swimming pools are becoming more and more trendy. But this craze actually hides very convincing arguments.
We consider that the dimensions of a small swimming pool are as follows:
five or six meters in length and three or four meters in width, at most.
Our models include several small pool options, such as the Unique 4, the Smart Lane, the full Clever range and the Tweet.
Being able to cool off, alone or in company: this is our goal, every summer, to escape the high temperatures observed in recent years.
But a small swimming pool is not just the opportunity to enjoy a little freshness.
A small pool, like our Clever or Smart Lane models, with a capacity of less than 10 m3, can allow you to save more than 12,900 liters of water when compared to a classic 8 m by 4.5 m pool.
Water maintenance is also essential
Indeed, we must not only consider the filling of the swimming pool for water consumption. If carried out regularly and expressly, maintaining a one-piece polyester pool can allow you to conserve pool water for six years.
When summer temperatures reach their peak, it is also necessary to take into account that water evaporates under the effect of the heat of the sun.
On the other hand, if it is a small swimming pool, the sun heats a smaller surface area of water than that of a classic or larger swimming pool. Evaporation is therefore less and is limited to 1 m3 per month compared to around 4 to 5 m3 for standard models.
In summer, going for a swim after dark and highlighting your garden with subdued lighting is a real luxury. If we analyze electricity consumption, only one spotlight is necessary for a small swimming pool while we will have to install two or three spotlights at least for a classic or larger swimming pool.
What if you want to extend the swimming season? Who says small pool says less water
It is therefore easier to heat and cool it.
Result: considerable energy savings compared to a traditional or larger swimming pool.
Both in summer and to cool the swimming pool, the use of a protective cover represents one of the most effective solutions so that the water does not evaporate further.
As we have seen, the advantages of a small swimming pool are numerous. To enjoy refreshing swims, only 10 m3 of water are needed!
