Are you looking to add a pool house onto your home? Or are you looking to replace an existing pool house? Here is five things to consider when you are looking at adding or updating pool house.
Look at the space you already have available for your pool house.
Replacing or adding a pool house on your property can prove to be a big decision. A pool house can take a lot of time to consider suppliers and more time to have a pool house constructed. A new pool house can be as big or small as you like, they can be tailored to suit your property and budget.
A pool house can be designed to include other features such as Jacuzzi's, saunas and steam rooms. When designing the pool house for your property ensure that you consider the other uses for the space. A pool house which is too big for what you need it for will cost you more money and leave you with wasted space. A pool house which is too small can leave you cramped and unhappy with the structure.
Glass or brick?
Consider the look and feel for your pool house. The style and age of your property will determine which materials to use and the style you want for your pool house. Glass is proving to be a popular choice among British pool house owners. Glass creates the feeling of the pool being outside, even when the weather isn't so good. Including brick in the design can allow the pool house to blend in with the original property.
Apropos design and manufacture glass and aluminium pool houses in the UK, which are bespoke to suit any client. Apropos are able to create a pool house designed out of glass and aluminium.
Think outside the box
Creating a pool house which is unique to your property and suits your lifestyle can be difficult, but experts such as Apropos can help. If you are considering an extension as your pool house use features such as folding sliding doors and roof lights to create a different space.
Folding sliding doors on your pool house can allow you to bring the outside in. Folding sliding doors can open your pool house in the summer and make it feel like the pool is outside in your garden.
Roof lights can be added to any new or existing pool house to allow more light to enter and can include electric vents for ventilation.
Glass pool houses
Glass included in your pool house design can have many advantages. The additional light provided means that you won't need to use as much electricity on lighting. The double glazing has thermally efficient properties which save on heating bills.
Glass is available in many different options which can provide benefits to our pool house. Priva-lite glass changes from clear glass to frosted glass at the push of a button. Glass is available tinted, in many different colours to provide privacy for your pool house.
