subject: Types Of In-ground Swimming Pools [print this page] Pools are a luxury that all homes wish to have. It is a place where people can relax, where family members can bond and where friends can simply have a good time. There are two types of pools: above ground and in-ground pools.
When space is a necessity and above ground pools are not a welcome option, in-ground pools are the best solution. Constructing an in-ground pool involves a long process. Contractors have to dig a hole on the ground, make sure that measurements are accurate before installing tiles or cement for the pool.
Free-form pools are slowly gaining popularity because this type of in-ground swimming pool gives some decision making to the house owner. This means that the pool is shaped according to how the owner wants it. Normally, people buy an already formed in-ground pool so they have to adjust to how the pool looks like. For people who already have landscaped their homes and then decide to have a pool, free-form pools is the solution.
The most common type of swimming pool is the geometrically shaped pool. In Chicago concrete pool construction has been around for a long time but remains to be one of the most popular types of pool construction. This is because it gives the house a very beautiful look while maximizing space for a pool. It can be the life of a party or a design used to impress guests.
Part of the ever-changing need to have a beautiful landscape, infinity pools have slowly gained ground in the popularity race among pools. This type of Chicago inground pool installation consists of a pool that flows to a lower level. This lower level then circulates it back up to the pool on the upper ground. The effect it gives is that the water freely flows on the horizon, thus the name infinity pool.
Finally, a perimeter overflow is a type of swimming pool that is the easiest for Chicago pool remodeling. With this, the edges of the pools are all fixed and made to look like the water will overflow. The water is drained on those edges and redistributed in the middle of the pool. The only thing that is restricted from a perimeter overflow is the place for stairs and decks.
