A 25m-long heated swimming pool is an
integral part of the expansive entertaining
terrace at the Coatesville house.
The pool, which is 4.8m wide, was built by
Frontier Pools to the architect’s specifications,
with slight modifications.
Frontier Pools director Neil Runciman says
the position of the concrete pool on the sloping
site, created a few challenges.
“Soft ground at one end of the excavation
needed to be removed. The land was then built
back up with compacted, certified hard fill to
create a shelf on which to build the deep end.”

The interior of the pool was plastered with
Quartzon in an Ice Blue colour. The pool is sanitised by a Puresilk salt system, and heated by
a Pentair MasterTemp gas heater. Two Austral
Filton filters with Zeolite filtration media were
also specified.
Pool lights from Spa Electrics ensure the
pool looks just as good by night as by day.
