To ensure the proper functioning of your pool, it is essential to have a technical room. We are therefore talking about a space that will be used to store equipment, tools and other products for the maintenance of the swimming pool. The swimming pool water circuit, like its purification, therefore depends a great deal on the technical room.

As you can imagine, the development of this outbuilding will have to respect certain rules as well as electrical standards. In this article, we help you organize this room in a detailed and thoughtful way.

Respect the correct configurations for the technical room

Having a swimming pool is a considerable asset for a house, especially when the weather is nice. But for the pool to be functional, the technical room must meet certain criteria. As much for technical reasons as for ease of regular maintenance, optimization of the technical room is more than recommended.

Do not hesitate to find out about the existing standards for technical rooms and pools in general. On the one hand, it will help you organize yourself more efficiently. At the same time, this will also make it possible to anticipate a good number of future interventions.

Finally, for the beauty and aesthetics of the exterior, you can take inspiration from design models adapted to technical rooms. In this case, we can come up with ideas like the example given here .

Floor, waterproofing and safety of the technical room

One of the first things to consider is the floor . And for good reason: it is very important that the room be airtight , while being perfectly ventilated . We will also ensure that the shed or shed is well lit and presents no risk of flooding . In general, we recommend installing the technical room on a flat floor .

On the other hand, we advise to make sure to install a door and to always lock the room. As the place will be used to store maintenance and treatment products, it is important that it is not accessible to children or animals.

Prepare and optimize the technical room for access and maintenance

The ideal is to establish a plan beforehand, in which we take into account current and future needs. This will make it possible to precisely determine the surface and the size adapted to the technical room of the swimming pool or the basin. Of course, to do it correctly, you must respect the direction of circulation of the water in the pool.

When fitting out the technical room for the swimming pool, care will be taken to install them in the most optimal manner. Again, this will allow us to easily access all the equipment. This presupposes in particular freeing up as much space as possible so that setting up and maintaining the devices is simple and secure.

Pay attention to the positioning of each element

Once you know the characteristics of the swimming pool technical room, it is time to move on to installing the equipment.

To operate your pool, the water passes:

• by the pump
• then through the filter, where it is rid of its impurities
• before being sent into the pool

It is therefore important that the pool pump is installed as close as possible to the pool and the water level. We recommend a maximum distance of 10 m. As for the filter, it must comply with the relevant regulations.

The tank must be accessible to facilitate maintenance or replacement of the filtering element. If you have a booster robot , this is the one you will need to put at the start of the circuit, i.e. just after the electrical circuit.

Equipment such as probes must be attached to the pipe leading the water to the pool, after passing through the filter. They will thus be installed just after the filter, and can be placed at a single point thanks to a measuring chamber (if the space is large enough). Finally, we must not forget the heating system , which will be followed by the processing elements.

Generally, specialists set up a system to isolate each element in the event of a breakdown. In addition, the positioning of the elements of the swimming pool technical room ends with the installation of the pH injection probe . This comes just before the discharge nozzles .
