An outdoor swimming pool can be the perfect place to relax and unwind in the summer months, but with extended season equipment and the correct planning it is possible for you to use your pool for most, if not all of the year.
A new build pool in NW2. Working closely with the architect, client and main contractor Brookforge have designed and constructed a fully insulated Quadlock pool shell.
Having just passed its watertightness tests, the pool will be tiled and have stainless steel wall fittings. There will be a Calorex air source heat pump to efficiently heat the pool and a Covrex automatic cover to retain the heat. Updates to follow…

Brookforge were commissioned to provide designs for the complete refurbishemnt of a 22m outdoor concrete pool in the Cotswolds.
Working with the Client’s appointed building company, Brookforge provided design, consultancy and engineering services, repiping and supplying new swimming pool equipment in the plant room.
Previously the swimming pool relied on a manual reel type thermal cover – Brookforge gave full structural designs for the construction and supply of a fully automatic slatted cover, built on to the end of the existing pool wall, in a “letter-box” type flooded pit.
We installed a Besgo automatic backwash valve to save space, water and reduced weekly maintenance requirements. We also advised on and supplied high quality mosaic pool tiles.

Brookforge worked along side Machinery & Equipment Ltd, a Seychelles based M&E company to create 16 luxury infinity pools with adjoining but seperate spa baths.
Each pool and spa was built into the hill side next to a luxury Villa on Fregate Island a paradise retreat in the Seychelles.

A new build fully insulated outdoor swimming pool installed in the cotswolds.
Built using the Quadlock Insulating Concrete Formwork (ICF) pool shell, insulated on both internal and external faces of all walls.
The pool benefitted from:
The most technically challenging part of the project was the design of the cantilevered support system for the slatted pool cover’s concealed reel.

The client specification was to create a black-tiled reflecting pool with water cascade. The client has small children who will use the pool as a splash pool in the Summer. It was, therefore, imperative that the circulation, filtration and sanitisation system maintained safe levels of water purity.

Brookforge were commissioned to design this stunning water feature at a school in North Yorkshire.
The Horse Water fountain required precise control of the flow rates to the 103 seperate jets. Brookforge designed and installed of the water circulation and control systems to create this dramatic feature fountain.
