Things to know when you arebuilding a shipping container

pools

Size of the pool depends on how

long or short you want, the

shipping containers range from 6

ft to 45 ft in length, and the height

could be 8 ft. So if you plan to have

a four feet pool you could easily

use the two halves of the

container when they are cut. This

can save you a lot of money on

other customizations.

Size of the pool

On selecting the size, you will have to construct

a foundation for your container pool. Dig out the

land basing the size of the shipping container

selected by you. Lay a concrete slab foundation

for placing the container. It is the same

foundation that we lay for the container home.

This foundation is best for supporting the

container in carrying water’s weight. You can

read the detailed steps to build this foundation

on our foundation-related page.

Foundation for the pool

Shipping containers are not built to

carry water inside them. Instead, it is

ensured to keep the water outside

when the container is made. This

makes it important for you to build a

pool-worthy structure out of a shipping

container.

The containers are built to carry the

majority of the load at their four

corners and the base. But, when you

convert it into a pool, the walls of the

container will get a strong push from

inside.

Structure

The base, sides, and corners of the container

will have to share the load of pool water. So, you

will have to reinforce the walls of your

container to make them capable of carrying this

water pressure. Consider using rectangular

steel channels on the outside walls of the

shipping container for adding strength to them.

Shipping containers are usually lined

with plywood floors that are not good

for holding water inside. When you are

modifying your container to a home,

you tend to waterproof it from the

outside. But here, since water will be

filled inside the container,

waterproofing will be done inside.

Waterproofing

You must make provisions for all plumbing points

before waterproofing. Now, you can connect

these points to other equipment for a fully

functional drainage system. You will have to take

care of the water circulation and filtration aspects

here. All the plumbing equipment and filtration

system can be stored under the pool deck. This

space can, then, be locked with the modified

double-swing doors of the shipping container.

If you plan to use your pool in winters as well, you

must make provisions to heat the pool.

Plumbing

Shipping container pools offer a huge benefit over

the traditional pools. You can personalize them

with your creativity by putting a funky paint, mural

or graffiti on the exterior walls.

Personalize your container pool

Your container pool is now ready with all

the decorative paint. You just need to

prepare the pool surroundings for the

upcoming family gatherings. Consider

adding a comfortable seating space and a

few potted plants. You can also set up a

fireplace at a comfortable

distance from your pool.
