Thanks a lot, that is good to know!
Brushpup said:Also, make sure you understand that FC has to be in proportion to what the Cya level in your is at. I can't say enough how much I like the pool, the addition of windows is so cool, but I love the overall design with so much negative edge. What prompted you to design and build it in such a way?
Thanks!! It took us hours of thinking!!
Since we live in a hill, we wanted to take advantage of the fact that the pool's wall are over the ground on one side. But it took me for ever to seal the windows! I tried 7 times in total... you know some people do sports for fun, I put windows
The infinite border was a last minute addition: Originally we planned to build a wooden deck on top of the room that is downstairs (where we do "asados"), but I discover the infinite borders, and I wanted to build one!, so my wife and I decided not to do the deck, and put a 1' layer of water on top of that room (which is: ~40m2 = 430 sq ft), which is also great for kids. And we build the inf. border on 2 sides of that space. I designed a 1000L (~340gal) catch basin, but after it was built in had ~150gal volume... which is not enough. This year I added a 1000L (340gal) tank at the end of the basin, and I is kind of working now (Im attaching at picture of the tank).
Thanks a lot for your comments
