Sydney may be known for its iconic opera house and bridge, but the city also boasts more ocean pools than any other in the world. Dotted along its coastline and harbour’s edge are these beautiful outdoor pools which serve as swimmers paradise – many dating back over 100 years! One of Sydney’s oldest pools has undergone an unpopular renovation that threatens its heritage-listed change rooms – yet another iconic site could potentially see this change come to fruition soon enough.
Though the design for Myrtha’s pool has yet to be finalised, it will most likely be constructed with saltwater using regenerative ozone technology similar to spas. This process reduces chlorine and other chemicals needed for maintenance while at the same time offering relief to locals concerned about chemical pollution; however critics contend that traditional concrete construction will make the new pool even more polluting than its aging predecessor.
Furthermore, the new pool will use less water than its predecessor due to regenerative ozone system’s water reduction ability of up to 70% compared with standard chlorine pools – providing significant savings in water consumption and consumption costs.
This new pool will be located near the existing car park, making it convenient for residents to access by foot or bicycle. It will feature a large lawn for picnicking as well as shaded seating. Furthermore, an outdoor stage and bar will enable live musical performances as well as community events to take place here.
The new pool will also serve as a great place for relaxation and rejuvenation, featuring water heated to 30degC for swimmers who prefer warm rather than cold waters. Furthermore, its retractable cover makes access easier in inclement weather conditions.
Pool installation can be a time-consuming task, so selecting the ideal contractor is essential. Your ideal company would have experience building the type of pool that interests you; for example, lap and plunge pools require different processes when constructed. In addition, selecting an insured and licensed provider provides added protection should an accident or injury arise during installation.
Once a pool has been dug and lined, it must cure for several weeks – it is ideal to do this during cooler months as heat can interfere with curing processes. Furthermore, choosing a reputable pool company with free, no-commitment consultation services would also be wise.
After your pool has set, it’s time to install its coping and tiling. While this step may take several weeks, it is vital that everything goes perfectly. Select non-slip materials for the coping – pavers, concrete or natural stone is ideal – before finishing it off with beautiful tiles chosen from our pool designer selections in terms of colour and style.
