OUR PRODUCTS

We sell everything from the most basic above ground splasher pool, to sophisticated top of the range equipment used in an upmarket inground pool.

We can offer you all you need to construct and maintain a pool, except for materials that you can get from any normal builders merchants, like sand, cement and concrete blocks.

We supply pool equipment for all types of pools and we will personally give you every assistance in making your selection. We suggest that you first look under our price list categories, and then phone us to discuss your options. We will be happy to give you all the time you need to help you make an informed choice that is right for you.

Most people in the UK prefer to swim in a heated pool, and we have a full range of pool heating and insulation products. Heating allows the swimming season to be extended for outdoor pools, enabling maximum enjoyment and value for money. There are various options available – namely electric, gas, oil, and solar, plus heatpumps to take free heat from the air, and heat exchangers to connect to your existing central heating system. An inexpensive floating solar heating bubble cover also works well on it’s own, and is essential to provide insulation, whatever other heating equipment you have. Your choice of heating method depends on the size of pool, fuel available, and what time of the year you want to swim.

Smaller pools (up to about 24’ x 12’ or 7m x 3.5m) can be heated with a 9kw or 12kw electric heater. These are cheap to buy and running costs are favourable if off-peak electricity is used.

Larger pools require more heating, and as most domestic electricity supplies can only support up to a 12kw heater, other options, such as gas or oil, should be considered. These are bigger and more economical to run, but cost more initially.

Should you have spare capacity on your domestic boiler, and if it is sited near to the pool, a heat exchanger is an option worth considering.

Solar heating is becoming increasingly popular. It is important to size it correctly, by having at least 50% of the pool area in solar panels.

Solar blanket pool covers are a must in the UK. They act as a floating solar panel on the surface and reduce heat losses caused by evaporation. They are cheap to buy and greatly reduce pool heating costs.
