To achieve low running costs and maintain a consistent temperature, a swimming poll hall must be as energy efficient as possible.

The high humidity and corrosive vapours peculiar to swimming pool buildings demands careful design and construction in appropriate materials.

Our swimming pool halls are constructed using Glulam timber components. Insulated timber frame wall panels together with a "warm roof" construction ensures that the ideal air temperature - two degrees higher than the water - is maintained.

As well as being visually interesting, laminated timber elements offer great strength and versatility. Our buildings can feature portal frames, feature trusses, curved or cranked beams and many other timber components, all designed by engineers to ensure your complete confidence.

Our insulated timber frame panels provide an ideal base for a wide variety of internal and external finishes including; plaster, tiles, brick, render or timber. This means that you can choose the most appropriate cladding for local surroundings and internal decor. Insulation is provided by 100mm or 150mm Fibreglass which, in conjunction with a high-performance vapour barrier, creates an extremely energy efficient building.

Roof design in all swimming pool halls is very important if a pleasant and condensation free environment is to be maintained. Our "warm roof" system typically comprises structural tongued and grooved timber boards, supported by the Glulam elements. Other materials can be used if required.

A vapour control membrane is fixed to the boards, and then rigid insulation is laid over this membrane. External protection is provided by clay or concrete tiles, or slates if a traditional appearance is required. Other roofing materials can be used just as easily.

We believe that low maintenance costs, as well as low running costs, are very important considerations when designing a swimming pool hall. Our designs always pay close attention to these points.
