Deck level swimming pools have got their name from the fact that the level of water is same as the level of surrounding pool deck. This creates an effect of continuity that makes the pool hall look larger than actual, so a deck level pool is ideally suited for indoor installation. The deck level pool effect also makes the pool look more modern, so it also goes well with new build development properties where contemporary look and clean lines are a big advantage.
The deck level pool has better circulations within the pool, and the quality of filtration achieved by deck level swimming pool filtration systems is far superior to other conventional systems as the skimmers are replaced by an overflow channel through which water overflows constantly into a balance tank, from where it is pumped back into the circulation system.
The over flow channel associated with a deck level pool can be covered in many ways. The conventional method, and still popular, is plastic grating that is economical and low maintenance. For modern effect stainless steel grating works well, and if you have a traditional setting we can supply purpose made stone grating that will match the pool surround.
In modern deck level pools, we sometimes also use a continuous slot around the pool that makes the channel very discreet and offers a very minimalist look. The tiles or stone used for making the slot can be matched to the pool surround making the transition from pool to surround very dramatic.
Because the water level in a deck level pool is the same as the pool surround, we need to construct a balance tank to take the water displaced by a swimmer entering the pool. Due to this extra structure and also extra detailing required for the overflow channel and associated gratings, deck level swimming pools usually are more expensive than skimmer type pools, but are well worth the price.
We can also add automatic covers or moving floors to your deck level pool to make the setting very upmarket and to add energy efficiency or space to your pool room. A bespoke lighting system will add to the looks and set the mood.
