Pavilion for the pool is an easy and in most cases transparent design, designed to protect the pool capacity and water in it from pollution. The protective design for the pool can have any shape and color, so if you decide to protect your artificial pond in this way, then there is something to choose from. For a long time, the pavilion for a swimming pool in a country or suburban area was perceived as a waste of money. But recently the attitude to these protective structures has changed dramatically.

Pavilion for swimming pools. Types and characteristics
Manufacturers of protective structures for swimming pools realize the following types of products:
- Low pavilion.
- Pavilion of medium height.
- High Pavilion.
- Combined pavilion.
In addition, you can choose a sliding, closed or semi-open pavilion.
indoor pool pavilion
This is a capital construction with a frame, on which a cover is attached. Usually it is attached to the building, but it can stand alone. Entrances to the pavilion can be one or more. Such a pavilion, as a rule, is equipped with everything necessary, in order to make the rest as pleasant as possible.
semi-open pavilion
It is a construction made of metal, with a cover attached to it. The pavilion partially covers the pool so that bathers can protect themselves from bad weather or from direct sunlight.
sliding, mobile pool pavilion
The most practical option. Sliding pavilions for a swimming pool can easily be transformed, thus turning them into fully enclosed or semi-open pavilions.
Varieties of pavilions in shape and style
The most popular option is a horizontal half-cylinder, divided into sections.
Quite popular designs are trapezoidal and asymmetric forms, which combine arcuate and rectilinear elements.
A rectangular arc-shaped covering is considered to be the most practical design, in which the maximum useful space is used. In addition, in the pavilion arc-shaped structure in the winter does not accumulate snow.
For a pond that has a round shape, canopy spheres with several sliding panels are perfectly suitable. The dome of such a pavilion is easy to ventilate, it is convenient to place the necessary furniture.
Thanks to the use of metal and plastic materials, high-tech pavilions are very popular. For all its simplicity, the structure looks quite impressive due to the gloss of the water surface, and the mobility of the individual sections gives the dynamism to the entire building.
Pavilions for swimming pools. Manufacturers
More recently, the products of domestic and foreign manufacturers differed significantly in terms of quality. Recently, you can choose a quality product no matter where it was produced. The modern market offers a wide choice of pavilions of Russian manufacturers, as well as production of Germany and China.
How to choose a pool pavilion
Choose the right design for your pool is not difficult. It is only necessary to know exactly what you need and how much you are willing to spend. When choosing a pavilion, you can follow the following algorithm:
- Shape: round, square, rectangular, irregular shape.
- Frame type: stationary mobile, sliding, portable.
- Type of construction: closed, partially closed, sliding.
- Cover material: glass roof, soft roof, plastic roof, polycarbonate cover.
- And other, secondary parameters: color, transparency, additional equipment, etc.
Pool Pavilion
This type of construction can be very expensive, and not everyone can afford to spend a large sum on the pavilion. But if you, as the saying goes, hands grow out of the right place, have the time and desire, you can build a pavilion for the pool yourself.
However, frankly speaking, it's not always wise to do this yourself. Of course, a certain amount of money you will save, but time and energy will take quite a lot. It will be much easier to buy a ready-made inexpensive pavilion of economy class, and do not spend free time with a welding machine and a Bulgarian. The production of pavilions has long been put on stream, and if you need a standard size design, a simple form covered with inexpensive material, then it is better to buy it.
But if it is a question of a non-standard pavilion, then it makes sense to arm yourself with a tool and do a little sweat.
what do you need to build a pavilion?
Tools and materials:
- Pipe-profile of rectangular or square shape.
- Electric welding.
- Polycarbonate. You can replace the thick polyethylene film for economy.
- Elements of fasteners.
- Drill or screwdriver.
- Electric jigsaw.
To begin with, we define the shape, dimensions, framework, material for the covering and other parameters. After the project is ready and the materials are bought, we proceed to work. We determine the maximum usability and design parameters in order to make the process a little cheaper. For example, take a pavilion for a relatively small pool for a suburban area measuring 9-12 sq.m.
Practicality of the pavilion: we will construct a structure of a semi-open type, without end faces, semicircular. If around the pool there is a rest area, decorated with tiles or stone, the pavilion can be installed on it. Otherwise, you will have to build a separate foundation. Ready-made foundation should extend beyond the design by 7-10 centimeters - this will allow it to reliably assume the considerable weight of the finished pavilion.
To minimize the monetary costs, we will build a pavilion of medium height, the frame will have a small bend. Material - metal profile and polycarbonate. For example, you can take the project of any pavilion for a pool of polycarbonate - in the network there are enough of them, and orient yourself to it.
The profile pipe must be arched. Independently do this will not work, you need to entrust this work to specialists. But if you masterfully master the welding machine, you can try to curve the profile into the arc yourself. For this, it is necessary to make several cuts in the bending points, hold the pipe in a vice and carefully bend it. Places of incisions accurately brew and cleaned the Bulgarian. Pipes must be fastened to the foundation with bolts at a distance of about a meter from each other. Between the arcs set the stiffeners. Hinges for bolts of fastening of stiffeners can be welded by electric welding. Ribs can be set solid, or, if you want to save, in staggered order: the first span is 2 edges, the second is 3, the third again. 2. For a small pavilion, this will be more than enough to fasten polycarbonate sheets.
Important point: the profile pipe must be wide enough so that the two edges of polycarbonate sheets can fit on the surface, approximately in the middle. Next, we install polycarbonate sheets of the required thickness, color and strength on arcs from the profile. From the inside, the joints must be treated with silicone for tightness. The frame of the pavilion, before polycarbonate installation, it is necessary to clean and paint.
In general, the design of the pool is very similar to the most ordinary greenhouse. If you have ever been involved in such a development of the country territory, then there will be no problems. It should be noted that although we are building a dismountable structure, but every year to dismantle and transport it somewhere is not worth it. The pavilion will become unusable much faster. In a stationary form, your structure can last at least 10 years. It will only be necessary to occasionally do minor repairs, and carry out preventive work.
Here, in principle, and all, you yourself have built another important construction on your dacha or plot of land. You can certainly not bother yourself, and buy a pool with a ready pavilion, if the pond is only in the plans, and do not need to cover already ready. At the same time, to focus on high-quality and practical models, but if there is not much money, and there is a great desire to do something worthwhile on our own - we hope that our small publication will help you in this.
How to care for a polycarbonate pavilion
The process of care for such a pavilion is simple and requires no special effort. Polycarbonate has a protective coating, which prevents the appearance of stains and stains on the surface of the material. In winter, the roof pavilion should be regularly cleaned of snow.
In addition, you must carefully monitor the state of the metal frame and prevent the appearance of corrosion. Rust, if not removed in time, can significantly damage the frame of the pavilion. Therefore, if there are signs of corrosion, it is necessary to take urgent measures.
All works are carried out in several stages:
Damaged place is carefully cleaned by hand or with the help of an electric drill provided with a suitable attachment. After that, treat the damaged area with a primer and color it.
If the damage is serious, then the rusty part of the construction must be carefully cut out by the Bulgarian, and weld a new metal element in its place.
