It’s often the last thing we think about when starting the build on our dream pool, but how we house our pool pump is just as important as any other part of the process.
Depending on your needs, the size of your pump and available space, there are various options to choose from, including pump-only covers and dedicated enclosures.
The first step in deciding which option best suits your needs is to consider where your pump is located.
Is it visible from your home or from a neighbour’s house? Is it in a prominent position in your yard or entertaining zone?
If so, be sure to choose a colour and design that complements your surrounds.
The next step is to consider your climate.
Here in the Tropics, we have both heat and rain to contend with, so we’re looking for protection from the elements while maintaining maximum breathability.
Our custom design service means you can choose from a hinged lid in either slat or Colourbond sheeting in a variety of colours for optimal rain protection.
You can also select from a front swing-hinged door or a front sliding door, depending on your access needs.
Finally, is noise an issue for you?
If your pump is positioned close to your home or someone else’s, a full enclosure that lowers the decibel output is a must – especially for noisy pumps.
Whether you’re making your decision based on aesthetics, to muffle sound or to protect your pump from weather, a custom-made aluminium pool pump enclosure will ensure both ventilation and visual appeal.
Speak to the team at Modern Glass and Aluminium about your specific needs and let us help you design a pool pump enclosure to suit your needs.
