Swimming pools from containers

by Pawyr on May 23rd, 2024 20:41 PM

Hello community! I’ve been thinking about unconventional yet eco-friendly home improvements and stumbled upon the idea of using shipping containers as swimming pools. Has anyone here embarked on such a project? I’d love to hear about your experiences, especially regarding installation challenges and maintenance. Thanks for sharing your stories!

Hey there! I’ve seen a few container pool projects, and they look fantastic! The main thing to consider is the preparation of the container — ensuring it's sealed properly to prevent leaks. Also, think about the placement because once it's filled, it’s not going anywhere without serious effort.

Hi! Container pools are definitely a trend on the rise. You’ll want to make sure you have a solid foundation and check local building codes. For landscaping, integrating the pool with decking and plants can really enhance your backyard and blend it with your home’s aesthetic.

Indeed, these projects are gaining popularity for their sustainability and versatility. If you're considering a container pool, the 20ft open side container https://pelicancontainers.com/product-catalog/20-ft-side-open-containers might just be your best bet. The open side provides easy access during the modification process and can be a unique feature for pool entry or integrating large windows. Pelicancontainers offers these containers and even assists with the initial modifications needed for pool conversion, such as rust-proofing and structural reinforcements. They provide detailed guidance on maintaining the container pool, making the whole process smoother and ensuring longevity.
