Polypropylene Pool: Price, Quality, and Customization

When the sun shines high in the sky and the mercury rises, the dream of owning a private pool becomes extremely tempting. Among the many materials available for pool construction, polypropylene stands out for its durability and versatility of application. What factors determine the quality and price of a polypropylene pool, and what customization options are available? Here are some tips on what to consider to ensure your investment is fully satisfying!

Polypropylene – Why is it worth it?

Polypropylene is a synthetic material known for its exceptional resistance to chemical and mechanical damage, as well as its ability to withstand weather conditions, making it an ideal material for luxury garden pools. Pools made from this material are very durable—they do not fade under UV exposure and are resistant to cracking and deformation, which is especially important in climates with significant temperature variations. Additionally, the smooth surface of the material makes it easy to keep the pool clean, significantly reducing the costs and effort associated with its maintenance. Furthermore, polypropylene pools are also resistant to chlorine and other chemicals used for cleaning.

Factors Influencing the Price of a Polypropylene Pool

The main factor influencing the cost is the size of the pool. The price increases proportionally with the dimensions—both width, length, and depth. A larger pool requires more material and greater installation effort. The more components that need to be transported to the installation site, the more expensive the transportation. However, it should be noted that unlike polyester pools, which must be delivered to the site as a monolithic structure, polypropylene basins are constructed on-site using welding technology. This affects the price of transportation—polypropylene sheets, from which they are constructed, are significantly easier to transport. Often, the location of the property where the pool is to be installed makes it impossible to deliver a ready-made polyester basin (for example, if there is no access road to a garden located behind a house).

The shape of the basin is another aspect that influences the price of a polypropylene pool. Standard shapes, such as rectangles or ovals, are usually cheaper than custom models that require individual construction solutions. Speaking of polypropylene pools, it is also worth mentioning two types of these basins, which also have different prices. An overflow polypropylene pool will be more expensive than a skimmer pool due to the higher cost of the water purification system, although it should be remembered that it is also a much more efficient technology.

Customization is a Long-Term Investment!

The finishing touches chosen by the investor also influence the cost of investing in a garden pool. The choice of additional options, such as entrance stairs, counter-currents, LED lighting, or custom colors means that the price of a polypropylene pool can increase. Each of these options is, of course, a valuable addition that enhances comfort and safety, so it’s worth considering their installation during the design phase. Implementing changes and enhancements later will not only be more expensive but sometimes also impossible.

Customizing the pool to personal preferences and site conditions not only increases satisfaction with its use but also raises the value of the entire property. Personalization can include not just dimensions and shape but also additional features such as counter-currents, hydromassage, relaxation benches, or enclosures, which radically reduce the entry of contaminants into the water.

When deciding to invest in a polypropylene pool, it is important to remember that it is a long-term expenditure. A higher initial price may translate into lower maintenance and conservation costs, as well as greater durability and fewer failures—and thus—fewer repairs in the future.
