Shape

General shape of the pool. Usually, this form corresponds to the outlines of both the outer and inner sides.

In general, this indicator primarily affects the ease of installation; it is worth choosing a pool according to its shape, taking into account where it is planned to put it. In addition, individual options have their own nuances. So, the round shape provides the greatest volume with the smallest perimeter length; in addition, it is considered the most durable, because. there are no corners in the design, as in oval models. At the same time, square and rectangular models are also quite reliable, and the mentioned corners can play the role of "seats", which in some cases is more convenient than a round shape. In turn, non-standard models are most often made in the form of polygons, but in general, the shape can be any — for example, in the form of a fish, a ship, etc.

Volume

One of the most important parameters for any inflatable pool. It depends on the volume how large the pool will be and how many people can simultaneously take water procedures in it. Choose a pool should be based on who it is purchased for. So, for children under the age of one year, it is better to choose small solutions with a volume of up to 100-200 liters with low sides. For children under 3 years old, you can choose a model with a volume of about 300 liters. For children over the age of 6, you can already buy large, family pools. But at the same time, experts recommend choosing the height of the sides, based on the height of the smallest family member.

Usually, the volume is calculated at 80% filling of the pool. Another important fact is that the larger the volume of the pool, the more care will be needed for it.

More features

Gorka. The slide is found in inflatable pools, intended mainly for children. Its device may be different. So, in some models, the slide is directed into the pool, in others — out, "overboard"; there are also double-sided designs. The slide can be an integral part of the pool, inflated with it, or installed separately. Such devices may vary in height; there may be several. And some pools are entirely made in the form of a slide (with sides at the bottom to hold water).

Water effects. The presence of additional water effects in the pool — for example, a canopy with jets watering bathers, or a fountain. Thanks to this equipment, bathing becomes more interesting, new features for games appear. However, note that for the operation of water effects, good water pressure is needed, which requires a pump or water supply to be connected to the pool.

Canopy. The presence of a canopy in the design of the pool. The size and device of the canopy can be different: it can cover the entire area of the pool or only part of it, be made inflatable, folding, removable, non-removable, etc. Anyway, this function is highly desirable in sunny weather: even a small canopy can effectively cover the pool from direct sunlight, protecting the people inside from burns and overheating. This is especially important if small children swim in the pool.

Inflatable bottom. The presence of an inflatable bottom in the design of the pool. Due to the thickness and softness, such a bottom is more comfortable than a solid film; in addition, it is considered optimal for uneven surfaces, because. masks pits and ledges under the pool. The main disadvantage of models with this feature is a higher cost than analogues with a bottom in the form of a film.

Air massage. The presence of an air massage system in the design of the pool. Such a system consists of a set of nozzles on the bottom and/or walls of the pool, as well as a compressor that pumps air into these nozzles. Due to this, a lot of bubbles are formed, providing a massage effect. Air massage is pleasant, it has a noticeable relaxing effect and can improve mood. It is also believed that this function has a therapeutic effect — in particular, it improves the condition of the skin and the functioning of the lymphatic system. And for children, "bubble" water looks funny and also serves as additional entertainment.

— Timer. Electronic control of air massage, which allows you to turn off this function after a certain time. Thus, you can choose the optimal time for your needs and not resort to manual shutdown.

Staircase. The presence of a ladder in the scope of delivery of the pool. Large, family models with sides a metre high and above are equipped with a ladder: it is very inconvenient to climb into such containers without additional devices. Usually, stairs are made of plastic or metal and are made removable — this simplifies storage and transportation when folded. They are also sold separately, however, the complete ladder is convenient in that it optimally matches the height of the pool.

Awning. The presence of an awning in the scope of delivery of the pool. The awning is useful in order to cover the tank during "non-working" hours — so that leaves, insects and other debris do not get into it. It is faster and more convenient than draining the water and folding the pool every time. Of course, third-party tools can also be used for such purposes — for example, a piece of tarpaulin of the appropriate size. However, a complete awning is much more convenient — it is optimally suited in terms of dimensions, moreover, it can have devices for secure fixing on the pool.

Bedding. The presence of bedding in the scope of delivery of the pool. This device performs two main functions. Firstly, it provides additional protection against punctures — an important feature, given that inflatable pools are often installed directly on the ground, where there can be pebbles, knots and other sharp objects. Secondly, this function can also be useful for the convenience of bathers: getting out of the pool, it is more convenient to first stand on the bedding, and not on bare ground. The bedding can also be selected separately, however, the complete product fits optimally in size, which saves the user from the hassle of selecting.
