Pool insulation instructions: what is better to insulate?

The need for thermal insulation of the pool

One of the ways to prolong the life of the pool is to insulate it. It is of two types: wall insulation and bottom insulation.

The pool is insulated for two reasons:

The temperature difference between the pool bowl and the ground, the water will quickly cool down;
The second reason follows from the first. Too high costs for electricity, which is spent on heating the water in the bowl.

It is necessary to insulate the pool with the material, the thermal conductivity coefficient, which is quite high. Because the temperature of the ground is about 5 degrees Celsius, and the pool is 25 degrees. The drop is too great.

Pool types

Pools are of various types, from special sports and recreational pools to stationary and stationary ones installed in the country.

Stationary

Such a pool is not carried over the site, a pit is pulled out under it and the formwork for the pool bowl is poured. A place is being arranged for drainage and water intake. But there are times that there is no water on the site, which could constantly fill the bowl. In this case, resort to the following solution. At the request of the owner, a fire engine is brought in, which fills the pool with water. But what about water purification, you ask. That's how. A skimmer cleaning system is installed, which, with proper care and proper use of water in the pool throughout the year, the water can not be changed for several years.

Stationary pool

Mobile

This type of pool costs the owner less than a stationary one and does not require year-round maintenance. Only for the swimming season in summer. In addition, this type of pool can be moved by the owner to different parts of the suburban area. In turn, there are several subspecies of a mobile pool: inflatable and frame. The first is one of the simplest. But it is easy to pierce it if you handle it carelessly. The second type is more durable and durable. The water in it can not be changed all season if a good filter is installed. But unfortunately, you have to face the following problem: many insects in search of water find your pool and often drown there. The most unpleasant thing is that wasps can fly in on a hot afternoon, which will interfere with rest.

Thermal insulation materials for the pool

It is impossible to insulate the pool with any material you like. It will be money wasted. Because it may not fit and provide the required parameters. Let's figure out which material is best.

Thermal insulation membrane

The advantages of this material are:

Mechanically strong and flexible;
Meets all hygiene requirements;
Very little water rinse;
Easy to fit and cook by hand welding;
Welding seams are very strong, have double thickening;
Environmentally friendly;
Ease of repair;
Can be sent for recycling.

Foam concrete

This type of material waterproofs the pool well, as it has:

low water permeability;
resists high pressure;
holds a blow in front of an aggressive aquatic environment;
is one of the most budgetary waterproofers.

Foam concrete - material for pool insulation

Styrofoam

Polyfoam is one of the most affordable and inexpensive types of pool insulation, which will stop the transfer of heat from water to the ground. Its advantages are:

availability;
little weight;
environmental friendliness;
low price;
high thermal insulation and waterproofing properties;
does not progress corrosion.

In addition, this material is easy to install and does not require special installations and machines.

Polyurethane foam as thermal insulation for the pool

There are many insulation materials for pool insulation. And the price for them is quite high. In order to save money and get the much-anticipated pleasure from using the pool, you should pay your gaze to sprayed polyurethane foam insulation.

It also costs a lot. BUT…

PPU is a multi-functional insulation that performs the tasks of steam, hydro and thermal insulation at the same time. This fact helps to save on the purchase of materials.
PPU is produced directly on site, which frees you from paying for the delivery of piece materials.
PPU is applied to the surface of the pool by spraying without a single fastener, which can significantly simplify the installation process and reduce the time to complete the work to a few hours.
And the work itself is already included in the polyurethane foam insulation service, so you will not incur additional costs.

Technological features and advantages of sprayed PU foam

Polyurethane foam is most effective when insulating a house or pool. This is due to its cellular structure. In addition, the cells are filled with carbon dioxide. In addition, the heat transfer coefficient of this material is higher in comparison with other materials. On this point, PPU surpasses even air.

Other advantages of the material:

spraying does not leave seams through which cold could break through;
spraying can be carried out on structures of various shapes, of any configuration and complexity;
simultaneous insulation and waterproofing is provided by PPU spraying;
fireproof, as it extinguishes when ignited on its own.

The best insulation for a bath and a pool

Thermal insulation of a bath and a pool with foam glass is the safest and most effective method of heat and waterproofing. Firstly, foam glass - an inorganic material that does not deteriorate under the influence of water, steam and moisture, does not pass them through, providing waterproofing. What can not be said, for example, about mineral wool, which absorbs moisture and allows steam to pass through; therefore it is not at all suitable for warming a bath and a pool. Secondly, when heated, it does not emit toxic and harmful substances, in contrast to expanded polystyrene and mineral wool boards. It is an environmentally friendly and absolutely safe insulation. The use of foam glass to insulate the bath and pool will protect against fungus inside the room (which cannot be guaranteed by other heaters). Let's conclude: foam glass - this is the most successful solution in the matter of insulating objects such as baths, saunas, swimming pools.

Insulation methods and materials

There are slight differences in the insulation of pools made of different materials. Let's take a closer look.

Plastic basin

The pool is insulated by spraying with polyurethane foam. You can do this yourself by purchasing a special device. Further, the bowl is placed in the ground or belongs to a specially designated room. This type of insulation helps to prevent the pool water from cooling down.

Concrete basin

Warming is carried out by the method of PPU spraying. Here it acts as both a heat insulator and a hydro and steam insulator. However, insulation must be carried out not only outside, but also inside. So that there is no early cooling of the water in the pool bowl.Inside the pool, polyurethane foam is sanded, reinforced, and then cement mortar is applied. Then everything is decorated with mosaics.

PPU spraying - a way to insulate the pool

Insulation of a concrete pool

With a pool made of reinforced concrete, the situation is somewhat more complicated. In this case, polyurethane foam will perform the function of not only a heat insulator for water, but also a hydraulic and vapor barrier of the pool itself.

The fact is that concrete is a porous material, and its constant presence in water-saturated soil contributes to the corrosion of the bearing reinforcement and the gradual destruction of the concrete structure of the pool itself. In addition, the concrete pool, which is located above the freezing level of the soil, is subjected to strong loads from the expanding soil during the cold season.

Therefore, in order to maintain the required water temperature, and not constantly heat the concrete, repel moisture, steam and extend the life of the reinforced concrete structure, it is recommended to perform insulation of a concrete pool both inside and outside.

The thickness of the outer heat-insulating layer is determined by the heat engineering calculation (but not less than 5 cm), for the inner insulation, 3 centimeters will be enough. Moreover, if the pool is located indoors, it must be borne in mind that the temperature of the soil under the house is always positive (+7 ° C).

Thermal insulation of the bowl and pipeline

It makes sense to insulate the bowl and the pipeline only in stationary pools. Mobile models simply do not need this. The simplest way to insulate the bowl is to use polystyrene foam. Insulation sheets are simply laid around the concrete during pouring.

Insulation of the bottom, as a rule, is not performed. The average depth of the pool is sufficient to keep the water from freezing. Thermal insulation of the pool with foam will also save the structural material from moisture ingress.

Ultimately, this will save the concrete from the freeze-thaw cycle when moisture gets in. Polyfoam performs an additional function of moisture protection. Sometimes, in addition to or instead of polystyrene, expanded clay backfill is used with a layer of 20-30 cm thick.

For thermal insulation of the pipeline, it is better to use foil and basalt mineral wool shells. The shell has already been formed for the size of the pipe, it remains only to insert the pipe into the insulation and glue the joint with foil tape.

It is impossible to immediately fill the insulation with earth, since the matted clods of dirt and stones can damage the insulating layer. Therefore, a sand pillow is always poured under the bottom of the insulation. Ideally, you need to fill the pipes with sand as well until the main part is hidden under its layer.

Pool insulation is an important part of the installation work. Thanks to which you can save money on electricity in the future, as well as the water in the pool bowl will always be at the same set temperature.
