Structural risk in large garden pools: Bursting of cheap models could threaten building foundations
मुख्य बिंदु
- Large garden pools that can exceed 10,000 liters carry the risk of tearing in affordable plastic models.
- Solar heat, excessive pressure, or sharp objects can cause the pool to burst and thousands of liters of water to drain out.
- The draining pool water can damage the foundation of the house if the ground slope is suitable.
- For foundation safety, pool water must be drained into a storm drain with a submersible pump instead of against the wall of the building.
आंकड़ों में
Large family pools set up on garden lawns can hold more than 10,000 liters of water. According to a statement made by the insurance company Pohjola Vakuutus, especially more affordable plastic pools carry the risk of tearing for various reasons.
Due to solar heat, excessive air pressure, or the impact of a sharp object (such as a toy or branch), the pool is likely to burst at its seams. Markus Uimonen, an official from the company, warns that in such a situation, thousands of liters of water can flow out within a few seconds.
If the garden slopes towards the house, this flood directly threatens the foundation of the house. For this reason, the ground where the pool will be set up must be flat, sloped in a direction away from buildings, and risky areas such as terraces must be avoided.
