Pool Builder guesses about how to build infinity pool
Look what happens. This "reputable pool builder" had never taken a course
to learn the principles of infinity pools. If you want to build this type of pool, you need to know the infinity identity footprint. These pools have certain requirements to function properly.
This is an infinity pool with a lot of problems. I was asked for a proposal to repair the failing stone on the face of the infinity wall. I did not quote the work, because of the problems.
This video shows the negligence of the builder. There are many mistakes, from ignorance of
infinity pools.
The infinity pool has a specific set of principles. Many builders lack the detailed knowledge for building these pools. Negative edge is another name for infinity.
I consult homeowners & builders, for negative edge pools,

a breath of fresh air thank you Jannine ,so many cowboys out there, building pools for 30yrs, I learnt by experience a long time ago how not to build a vanishing edge and corrected many since, the main problem i find is tank size in most cases is too small eg;(16x8 m pool commercially built with 8m an half round vanishing edge with a floating auto cover, the weir basin 8x.5x .5m deep with a massive 200mm open suction pipe on the bottom , the engineers argued it would work electronically on demand I said maybe but the makeup water into the pool max flow is 26lm so after backwashing (700lts/m 5hp pump) it will take days (5.6) to refill before the cover could be re activated , they found out the hard way and ruined a million dollar pool, today the pool is operated as a standard ), followed by incorrect water proofing , mesh back tiles , pumps in the wrong place, siphoning, Non return valves, insufficient makeup water on demand, failure to pin large tiles on sun exposed walls, windage and water flow, positive over negative edges vs pool safety. education is what is lacking across the board, yes even the so-called inspectors from the regulators, then there is the know all's and the cowboys. believe it or not a lot are qualified engineers. my biggest challenge and success was a 3-tier 14x4m pool 3sided vanishing edge on a pvt yacht of 126m.they said it couldn't be done. www. acqua.co.nz

You're correct about the engineers and cowboys. Engineers do not have a clue, sometimes, if they have never had the experience with infinity pools. I save many from disasters every year. Your experience is beyond belief, such a devastating outcome. You're from New Zealand, where the skills are far lower than here, although the skills here are low.

Would love to know more about the yacht pool. Fascinating!

How do you handle expansion and contraction of a negative edge wall from zero degrees to 100 degrees?

@poolzones8464 3 месяца назад

How would it be zero degrees? I have heard of thermal changes, but that one is a Doozy. Essentially, you use materials that are forgiving and waterproof each side of the wall and some into basin and pool. If you use glass that has not the thermal rating, then expect problems. Your question is very broad for an answer.

Where do you put a skimmer on an infinity pool...please help..

@poolzones8464 5 месяцев назад

on pool

@robertguarino7873 3 месяца назад

@@poolzones8464 the infinity edge is the skimmer

I have had many inquiries for additional information with the principles of infinity or negative edge pools. It is very difficult to find information on the way to build these types of pools with basins. If you are interested in learning more from an educational stand-point, please contact me. Janine@Poolzones.com or via my website: poolzones.com or Text on 713-499-9875. I can supply you with the essentials and examples of the concepts. These pools are not for faint hearted builders. They are very demanding.
