Owners of suburban areas, when drawing up a development plan, always try to leave room for a bathhouse. And if the area allows, then a bathhouse with a swimming pool is built. After all, the combination of bath and water procedures makes your vacation more comfortable.
In the southern regions, a swimming pool is more often installed on the street, near the building, in the northern regions - inside the bathhouse, in the room next to the steam room.
You need to think about the placement, shape, and complexity of the pool design at the bathhouse design stage. This will make it easier to calculate the load and select building materials.

How to choose a project for construction
A construction project for the construction of a bathhouse, developed by a specialized organization, includes a sketch, architectural part, a structural section and a description of the installation of utilities. Each item contains detailed information that will help you properly prepare for construction, calculate the necessary materials, organize and complete all stages of the work.
A bathhouse with a swimming pool inside is a rather complex object, which, in addition to a dressing room, steam room and font, may include a shower room, a bathroom, and a relaxation room. When designing, the space is divided into zones for convenient use of the building area. All communications - water supply, sewerage, electrical and ventilation systems - must be developed in advance. Structural calculations and description of the work sequence are a separate construction part of the project. And most importantly, measures to protect vacationers from dangerous factors are taken into account: electric shocks, injuries, burns.

The design of a bathhouse with a swimming pool is chosen taking into account:
- Budget.
- Construction sites.
- Communication lines.
- Preferences in materials.
- Fire safety.
- Relief features.
- Type of soil.
Correct selection of the project will help to avoid mistakes that can lead to excessive consumption of materials, delays in construction, inconvenience during the operation and repair of the building, even to deformation or destruction of load-bearing structures. a/
What are the features of a bathhouse with a swimming pool?
It is not always possible to arrange and equip a full-fledged swimming pool in a ready-made steam room. Design is carried out in advance, taking into account the features that arise during the construction of this hydraulic structure.

Foundation
When filled with water, the tank creates a colossal load on the base. The bathhouse itself is usually built from lightweight materials - wood, foam blocks. Often the construction is carried out using frame technology with the walls filled with porous insulation. Accordingly, a foundation with a small load-bearing capacity is built under such enclosing structures from free-standing columns or in the form of a shallow reinforced concrete strip.

A full-fledged pool with dimensions of 3x4 meters and a depth of 1.4 m gives a load on the ground of at least 17 tons. The greater the height of the liquid column, the greater the pressure on the soil. To this you need to add the own weight of the man-made reservoir, plumbing equipment, and finishing materials. Therefore, a fairly powerful foundation of monolithic reinforced concrete is installed under the font.
The Pool (VAO)

On the site there is a large heated swimming pool for adults and a small heated swimming pool for children. On weekends, beach DJ parties are held with the participation of popular artists, as well as daily performances and master classes from animators.
A qualified chef regularly conducts master classes on preparing various dishes. Super bartenders will quickly and deliciously prepare a refreshing cocktail, and waiters will serve throughout the complex.
For lovers of active recreation, there are tables for playing table tennis, an aerobics club and many other active entertainments in the pool area.
Playground
The playground is made of wood and environmentally friendly materials. There are slides, a house, and swings. Animators entertain the kids.
Walls
Constant high humidity has an aggressive effect on the material of walls and ceilings. From a square meter of pool surface, 150-250 g of water evaporates every hour. Structures and finishes located in such conditions are protected from moisture by waterproofing and treated especially carefully against rotting. Dehumidifiers are installed to maintain humidity between 50-60%.

Traditionally, wood is used to build and decorate baths. Cedar and larch have great biostability. The high resin content in the wood of these species is a natural antiseptic and preservative.
Heating and water heating
Heating of the pool area, as a rule, is provided from a common bath or house system, where the temperature of the coolant is increased by gas, electric or solid fuel boilers. Heating water collectors or radiators are mounted on the walls.
Infrared heaters are used to heat the pool. They are placed on the ceiling, heat is transferred to the surfaces by radiation.

The “warm floor” system is effectively used in baths. It heats the room, and it’s also pleasant to walk barefoot on the heated surface.
Comfortable for the procedures is an air temperature of at least 29°C, water temperature – 24°-28°C.
The water in the pool can be heated by a common or autonomous heat source. They use heat exchangers, electric heaters, and solar collectors.
Water drainage
Drainage from the pool is only possible into the central sewer system. A septic tank or cesspool cannot handle such volumes and will quickly overflow. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a method for removing water in advance, calculate the diameter of the drain pipe and the connection to the drainage network. Thanks to filtration systems, you can change the water no more than 1-2 times a year. The liquid is used for watering plants on the site if it does not contain chemicals.
Air dehumidification

To maintain air humidity within 50-60%, the following measures are used:
- Floating coating that reduces evaporation by 1.5 times. They use thick polyethylene film, which is cut to the size of the pool. This is an inexpensive and simple way to not only reduce indoor humidity, but also maintain water temperature.
- Air conditioning is not the best option, since the air temperature drops along with humidity. The household appliance cannot be used around the clock, or in winter. Due to the water purification chemicals contained in the fumes, the equipment quickly fails.
- Forced ventilation is an energy-consuming method that is ineffective in winter and rainy weather.
- Dehumidifiers condense and remove excess moisture from the air while heating it. With full ventilation, you can use budget options that work only in dehumidification mode.
Selecting a material: tips for craftsmen
Choosing material for a stationary pool is quite simple, since here we will mainly need only high-quality concrete mortar mixed with cement, sand, crushed stone and water.
For the first pouring of the base (bottom) of the pool, you can take the M100 grade of cement and this will be enough. It is recommended to construct the walls and bottom of the reservoir only from M400 cement, since its composition contains the substances necessary for such a structure (mastics, waterproofing agents, etc.). Final work is also carried out using cement of this brand, which has a high degree of waterproofing.
Cement grade 400 for concrete mortar
The composition of the concrete mixture must be correctly adjusted, since the quality of the construction of the pool bowl depends on this.
- Sand should have fractions of no more than 1.5–2 mm. Free from clay and other foreign matter. Also, silted sand should not be used.
- Crushed stone and gravel must be taken from durable rocks without foreign impurities. The fraction is about 1–2 mm.
- Cement grade 400 must be fresh (shelf life from the date of manufacture is no more than 3 months).
- Only clean and soft water is used (you cannot take it from a river or pond).
The concrete solution is prepared in exact proportions: 1 part cement, 3 parts sand and 5 parts crushed stone. The portion of water is determined by its ratio to the entire mass of the dry mixture. For greater stability of concrete, before using it, it is necessary to use hydraulic additives (4 kg of additive per 1 cubic meter of concrete solution).

Types of fonts
There are three types of pools in and next to the baths:
- stationary - reinforced concrete waterproofed or acrylic bowls;
- mobile - frame, inflatable or prefabricated structures made of polymer materials or wood;
- hydromassage - wooden or plastic tanks equipped with heaters, seats and a system of nozzles for water procedures.

Layout of bathhouses with a swimming pool
A bathhouse with a swimming pool consists of a whole complex of main and auxiliary premises:
- dressing room;
- steam room;
- washing room;
- pool;
- shower;
- locker room;
- restroom;
- firewood storage room;
- bathroom;
- boiler room or technical room.
The internal layout of a bathhouse with a swimming pool is in most cases standard. So, the pool can be located inside the bathhouse or in an extension. For convenience, the steam room and shower are placed near the font and equipped with a separate exit. There are 2 entrances to the fuel storage facility - from the street and from the building. The rest room should be located next to the washroom and have access to the pool. The maintenance room is moved away from everyone else.

For those who like to steam, there are Russian and Turkish steam rooms, a Finnish sauna, which are decorated in folklore style.
If there is not enough space on the site, the solution would be to build a corner bathhouse.
Bathhouse with outdoor pool
A simple and inexpensive option is a wooden font on the terrace under a canopy. It is installed on a raised platform or platform. The water is heated by electrical devices built into the housing. The area is separated from prying eyes by a hedge or climbing plants on supports. Near the swimming area there are sun loungers and tables for drinks.
