In this video, I am going to show you, how I made a 9,5m by 4.25m concrete pool by myselfe in 1200 hour, spending around 4100USD.
I have tried to put together a detailed and interesting video.

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.

I'd add an area at least 4 feet wide all around the pool to walk on so that dirt and grass don't end up in it. Even a wood deck would be good, save your filter system.

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.

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.

Our land here is so rocky, soily and thick clay it would break anyone after a week. We cant knock earth probes down that easy too with such a small hammer. But you got the heat which would be insane to work in everyday. Great video. I dont feel like i spent a hour.

Fascinating that you didn't use mortar to lay the blocks. You just stacked them and poured them full of cement. Interesting concept for construction that I have never seen done like that before.

Also no sloping to the deep end. Just flat bottom and that was why he put six drains along the bottom. I think those pipes froze and broke under the slab but he didn't want to discuss it. One drain in the middle of a sloping deep end is the best method used for pools.@@JonezBBQ

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. Here, the waterproofing layer is not concrete, but fiberglass. Concrete only has a supporting role. The pipes are frozen at the bottom. Then I made a new branch. There will be a video about it.

I'm always very envious of all these DIY people on KZfaq who have have easy to dig backyards. I even think about digging in my back yard and 3 of my shovels and a mattock break. My yard is practically solid rock at roughly 400mm down so I can't dig too far unless I have hired machinery. Outstanding effort by the way, Ripper of a job!

I live in Florida. where Im at anything below 12"-22" is fossiled coral rock, aka limestone. Like, Ive installed a fence where we pulled a 4-1/2" x 5' foot limestone boulder and had to pickaxe it into smaller chunks to then refill around the post hole so the soil around it wouldn't collapse. Digging here, even with an auger is a giant pain-in-the-ass.

Yeah you started digging, and then said exactly what I was thinking. Spend just a little money to rent a machine if you can. You get the job done in an afternoon or a weekend, and it doesn't actually cost that much (assuming distance traveled, availability, and no damage to the machine). Absolutely worth it for the amount of work just digging a hole takes. Beautiful work, btw. I "dig" it :)

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.

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!

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.

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 8 ай бұрын
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.

Yes, I know, I received a lot of criticism about the 220V. As an electrical technician, I do not consider it any more dangerous than the circulation pump, but I will replace it with a 12 or 24 V one.

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...
