Advice from “across the pond”
Yesterday’s piece about the proposed swimming pool has produced a response from Justin from Aquatic Design Group, a firm in America as follows:
“Mr. Temple,
Our firm specializes in the design of aquatic facilities around the world and have designed many similar pools to the one (or two depending on the chosen option) you are considering. The general rule of thumb is the bigger the better…as long as you can support the increased costs that come from the increased water space such as chemical costs, electricity, and other utilities- not to mention the initial capital costs that it takes to build the pool. If I can be of any additional assistance please let me know. Best of luck with your project!”
I’ve responded and will be really interested to find out if Justin can help me track down some sound information on and workable examples of similar projects.
It’s good to know this website reaches parts that others cannot reach. We seem to be generating more enthusiasm from across the pond than from County Hall.
Mind you, great though it looks, I don’t think the design of of some of their local projects will quite suit the Consett climate!
