The best way to take advantage of the summer is to spend as much time as possible in an outdoor pool. Not only can it help anyone beat the summer heat, but it can be the perfect way to turn any outdoor area into a relaxing oasis that can be enjoyed all year long. While there are many types of materials that can be used for the installation of a pool, new gunite pools in Long Island NY are one of the most popular choices. While they can require a larger investment upfront, many other benefits make them the number one choice for anyone looking to install a pool.
Ground Preparation
The first step is to prepare the ground where the pool will be installed. The install team will dig a hole in the desired location and shape it to match the design the customer wants. They will also dig the trenches that will be used for running the filter and return lines. Once the hole is excavated, they will then line the bottom of the hole with compacted sand.
Line Placement and Rebar Installation
Once the ground preparation is complete, they will then run the lines that will run to and from the pump and install cement embedded with rebar on the outer walls of the hole where the pool will be placed. This will help stabilize the ground and prevent it from giving way under the extreme weight of the pool.
Gunite Application
After the concrete has hardened, they will then apply the surface of the New Gunite Pools in Long Island NY. The gunite coating is typically applied using a spray device to ensure even coverage and to help accelerate the process. The gunite material will need to harden for a minimum of 4 days before they can fill the pool with water.
