Excellent job. Love the idea of a separate chamber that's big enough to climb into for maintenance of the filter and pump. There's a few things I'd have done differntly. Those lights I'd have used a pipe going right through the wall, that leads to a separate bay. That way if you ever need to change the bulb, you'd be able to access the lamp from outside without any need to lower the pool level. But since you've used LED lamps, the probblem likely won't arrise.

​@@michael.forkert Hungary is located in the Pannonian Basin or Carpathian Basin, the remnant of an ancient lake that dried up 5 to 10 million years ago. I live almost in the middle, where the land is quite low. Due to climate change, only 8 to 12% of the annual precipitation has fallen in recent years. It's different at Lake Balaton because this region is close to the Alps and naturally has more rainfall. Climate in Hungary is more diverse as for example in Germany.

@jamespayne8781 5 місяців тому
There is a process called surface bonding that allows for mortorless bonding of blocks. The first course is bedded in mortar and leveled. All other courses are dry stacked and leveled with small shims of wood or even paper. After they’re stacked they’re soaked with water and they’re then parge coated with a layer of surface bonding cement made of Portland cement and chopped fiberglass. You can make your own or (here in the us) buy it from the home center. You can coat just one side but two sides are more than twice as strong. It was originally developed for water proofing cisterns.

I probably wouldn't DIY the electrical, but after thinking about it, you're probably at low risk because you generally won't be in a position to complete a circuit, so even if there is an electrical fault you might not even feel anything. The thing I would be scared of is the wall collapsing (cracking), especially without any gravel backfill, but maybe keeping the pool full of water will provide enough counter pressure it's not a problem. I love the idea of using fiberglass, but I'd be worried about the resin lasting in the sun even with a UV resistant formula. I really enjoyed the video, I hope you make a followup in a year or two just to say "hey everything is still working".
@kundaniel
@kundaniel 4 місяці тому
The boat is made of the fiberglass I use. UV stable for decades. Looks good so far. I thought the resin would separate from the concrete. He could not. 220 V lighting cannot actually form a circuit with its contents. And the leakage current relay disconnects all problems immediately. The water in the pool has the same potential as the soil. But I got a negative comment, so I would rather change it to a 24V or 12V system.

Formwork stone is not laid with mortar. This is not a brick. Here, the bond is provided by the concrete in it. It does not need to be sealed with any mortar.

My Dad had an in ground pool originally built with a vinyl liner in his 60’s. Instead of using the company who built the pool when the vinyl died he decided to build a fix himself. So he then had a hole in the ground as you did, he also built the walls using cinder blocks. Back then there was not a way to use the fiberglass as you did. (Great ideas by the way) I do not remember what he did for that part. He used Portland cement as it makes a whiter finish than regular concrete. He did paint his white. He was lucky to already have the pump, plumbing, etc. They really enjoyed it for years.

I don't know if you thought about this yet. but you can always tile that pool.. it will clean up the block work you mentioned. and also water proof it more. they have a liquid membrane that you can roll on to the walls and the floor. then you can tile directly over it. I know it's an added expense but you can do it maybe next year. but all the hard work is completed. enjoy your success.

Great job for that small budget, a tip: don't amp the pump up to 10m³/h, the pressure in the sandfilter will be too high causing it to wear faster and most importantly the filtration of the water will be decreased since you're sucking the water through the sand much faster and with higher pressure, it will create channels in the sand. It's better to filter at 7m³/h for longer hours.

Awesome. love your vision and perserverence to just get it done. I wonder if your concrete estimation shortfall included multiplying by a factor of 1.3 for wet volume vs dry volume of materials.
@kundaniel
@kundaniel 4 місяці тому
Yes, the referenced m3 values ​​do not refer to dry material. For example, about 9m3 of concrete went into the foundation. This required about 11 m3 of gravel and 2.8 tons of cement.

The home made lights are not that safe I would have liked to see lots of silicone used for the two holes in the cup to run the plastic insulator. Still I would run a very low truck battery voltage on that pool wiring for the lights with a GFCI circuit in case water were to penetrate the wiring then nobody would be electrocuted to death. Never cheap out on electrical for pools where water is concerned and people and kids going to swim in it.

I received a lot of criticism for the 220V lighting. As an electrical technician, in my opinion, it is no more dangerous than the circulating pump. But I will replace it with a 12 or 24 v system.

I have been a builder for 30 years and been involved with many expensive pools. I agree they are all a scam. I couldn't believe how easy it was the first time I saw one built. Most dig a hole with a skid steer and then form up with thin sheetrock for curves with 3/8 rebar for support. The trick is they use gunnite with a pump truck. All very easy. The harder part is being skilled enough to plaster. We won "pool of the year" on one huge house I built.

Nicely done. I would have done certain things differently, but it doesn't matter, you nailed it. The ONLY thing I must comment is that covering the whole pump space with concrete and leaving only a small manhole was not the best idea. I would have covered it with a larger manhole cover (I see you managed to do it for a smaller one). But yeah, I congratulate you!

I like it when people bring up this topic... In an interesting way, no one has been bothered by the fact that the circulation pump is also 220 as. However, it is still in contact with the water on the metal part and is present as an inductive load. It somehow doesn't bother people because it works silently. almost everyone mentions the spectacular part that lights up. Please tell me what happens if the phase gets on the water and someone is inside... Nothing. There is full PE coverage with separate earthing probes with life protection relay. But if they weren't there, no one would be electrocuted even if one of the phases was exposed to water. However, the water has a one-to-one ground potential, even though there is a plastic pool wall, everything is connected to the ground probe in the case of metal parts. I am a high current electrical technician. Obviously I'm not going to make my own pool life-threatening...

Piece of advice from a pool man: Don’t attempt this safety is always an issue. If the wrong materials are used you could also contaminate the ground water. There are materials you cannot use for this consult a pool builder. Your city has to inspect this construction and most will not allow you to build a pool without a contractor’s license. This pool will eventually cave in or float. The piping will kink when the ground shifts. And the grey pvc will get brittle and will crack. The metal piping will be eaten up by the chlorine and the acidic rain falls. This construction will cost this guy thousands of dollars when it does fail.

Reminds me of when I was 14 years old helping my grandad build a 2,000 square-foot (186 square-meter) cast concrete basement during the construction of his house. My job, with my cousin, was batch mixing in a wheelbarrow with shovels and hauling and pouring the concrete, but we did have a small backhoe and dozer to excavate the pit and there were four of us batching, hauling, screeding and troweling. Still a huge job as I recall!
