I saw plastic containers for swimming pools at the construction base. I show prices and options for their installation
It is good to cool off in the heat in a lake, river or sea. And if in the country, then the best thing for this is a swimming pool. A common option is a frame pool. Prices for them start at $ 10,000. rub. But since it stands on the ground, then it is inconvenient to climb into it (going up and down the stairs).
Another option is to dig a pit, insulate and concrete it and order a pool made of plastic sheets. Not every city has companies that do this. Yes, and the cost of such a pool will not be small.
Recently, at the construction site, I saw ready-made plastic containers for swimming pools.
They can be simply placed on a solid base or installed in a pit. Several options with prices.
Volume: 1800 l, height: 760 mm, diameter: 1850 mm. Price: 19500 rub. Moreover, on the manufacturer's website (checked prices) - more expensive. A pool this high would be ideal for children. If you need a deeper option, then the following option:
Volume: 3800 l, height: 1070 mm, diameter: 2250 mm. Price: 26460 RUB.
Rectangular pool with even larger volume. Volume: 4600 l. height: 1080 mm, length: 2500 mm, width: 2040 mm. Price: 35 300 rub. A baptismal font with a volume of 2000 liters was also exhibited there.

They are made in a neighboring town 50 km from Krasnoyarsk.
All these are one-piece tanks for swimming pools. Manufactured using rotational molding technology), have no seams. Something like how gypsum piggy banks are made in a rotary machine. The plastic is of high quality: it is not afraid of frosts up to - 40 grams. and heat up to +50 gr. But it should not be left with water for the winter.
In the heat, rest may look like this:
But if you make a full-fledged pool, then it is better to install the container in a pit insulated with extruded polystyrene foam and make a terrace around it. You will also need a pump with a filter for the pool and tablets with a disinfectant for water (so that the water does not bloom). For faster heating of water, you can connect a self-made heat collector made of HDPE pipe with a diameter of 25 mm to the pump. An example in a short video:
Only the pipe in the heat collector needs to be covered with transparent plexiglass or transparent polycarbonate - there will be more efficient heating. At night and in bad weather, the container must be covered with a cover so that no debris gets into.
If there is no desire to engage in earthworks, dig a pit, then a font or a large outdoor bath with hydromassage can be made from the container:
Make a terrace around, steps and a facade for the container from the lining. The wood must be protected with wax and coated with alkyd glaze. Otherwise, the wood will quickly darken from water.
An option for regions where the summer is not hot. The water in the pool, which is installed in the greenhouse, will warm up on almost any summer day. In hot weather, provide for the opening of the doors in the upper part of the dome.
