What makes a Biodesign pool different from a traditional concrete pool?

Biodesign pools represent a revolutionary approach to pool design and construction. Unlike traditional concrete pools, they feature:

• Natural beach-style entries that create a seamless transition from your patio to the water
• Custom-sculpted designs that blend harmoniously with your landscape
• Environmentally friendly construction with minimal concrete usage
• Faster installation time with fewer required inspections
• Lower maintenance costs and superior durability

How environmentally friendly are Biodesign pools?

Biodesign pools are significantly more eco-friendly than traditional pools for several reasons:

• Minimal concrete usage, eliminating one of the largest sources of construction-related carbon emissions
• EPDM liner material is chemically stable, inert, and recommended by Greenpeace as an environmentally safe alternative
• More efficient use of resources during construction and operation
• Materials can be recycled or safely disposed of at end-of-life
• Lower water and energy consumption during regular operation

How long does it take to build a Biodesign pool?

One of the major advantages of Biodesign pools is their efficient construction process. A typical 645 sq. ft. pool can be completed in just 10 working days by a team of three workers. This includes:

• Complete pool structure
• Equipment installation
• Lighting
• Edge finishing This is significantly faster than traditional pool construction, which often takes 8-12 weeks or longer.

What about maintenance and durability?

Biodesign pools are designed for superior durability and easier maintenance:

• The waterproofing layer offers 300% greater elasticity than traditional pool liners
• Enhanced resistance to UV rays, ice, and pool chemicals
• Built-in Microban antimicrobial technology in the surface
• Lower maintenance costs compared to traditional pools
• Structural coating has twice the mechanical resistance of concrete

Can Biodesign pools be used year-round?

Yes! Biodesign pools are designed to be beautiful and functional in all seasons:

• They can remain open during winter months for continued enjoyment
• If not in use, they maintain their aesthetic appeal as a natural water feature
