Proposed Pool Plan - Rough Draft

19 years ago

See album for reference. Went thru a few iterations, and ended up with a rectangle and spa. Need to add a roman end to the deep end of pool like we had in the 1st draft.

2nd Draft photo:

- 20' x 40' pool (not including step area)

- 3' to 8' deep

- 6' x 7' Spa (thinking of going 6' x 8' for an extra $360)

- 6' x 5' Stair entry (only 5' wide - is this enough??)

- spa flush with deck (we like the look)

- back of garage faces due west

- because spa spillover is minimal (read: not very loud), we'll add a water feature in top step (see example photo)

- I wanted spa on opposite side of pool, but DW wanted to overlook the yard (nuttin' but trees), and not the garage/house. So we placed the spa on the stair side. Since it is flush, I saw no need to have on the deep end

- Not sure if location of light (on long wall) is the best spot. May make the shallow end too dim??

- Deck needs to be expanded... currently shows 10' on 1 side, and 4' on other 3 sides. Probably make the deck on each of the short sides 10' too.

- spa has seating on 3 sides. Need to add a seat on the side with spillover (is this normal to have seating on all 4 sides??)

- Skimmer placement (we get 2) nt shown. Not sure where the best locations are
