Designing an outdoor living area and
poolscape isn’t always about providing
lots of detail. Sometimes it’s best to just let
the view do the talking.
This 25m-long infinity pool, built
by Mayfair Pools, is a perfect example.
With dramatic views of the Marlborough
Sounds as a backdrop, the pool is a sleek
oasis of blue that merges with the horizon.
Mike Freeth of Marlborough Pools &
Spas, the local agent for Mayfair Pools,
says the owners chose the colour Fiji Sands
for the interior of the fibreglass pool.
“This has a creamy look when applied,
but it becomes a beautiful turquoise blue
once the water is in the pool.”
To operate the 25m weir a separate
booster pump was installed. This can
be isolated from within the house when
the pool is not in use. The pool is heated
by two large 30kW heat pumps hidden
beneath the deck. There is also an automated Coverstar pool cover, concealed in
a pit when not in use. The cover avoids the
need for a pool fence, which would have
obstructed the view.
Freeth says construction challenges
included changing the size of the pool
mid-build from 12m to 25m long.
“Both ends of the original pool were
removed and the pool extended in both
directions for the new owners.”
Mayfair Pools is a specialist in custom
fibreglass pools, with agents nationwide.
