5 Of the Most Interesting, Scary Pools of the World

1. The Sky Pool is a 25-meter translucent pool that runs between two towers at the Embassy Gardens. Offering sweeping views of London, the pool is a breathtaking design. It is the biggest detached acrylic swimming pool structure globally. The swimming pool was manufactured in Colorado, USA and took a 5,000 miles journey to its new home. The water alone in this pool weighs approximately 375 tonnes.

2. The Hemeroscopium pool in Spain runs from one side of the building to another. Completed in 2008 and designed by Ensamble Studio. It is a 4300 square-foot residence. It extends on one side to make swimming experiences more exciting. Here, you can swim as you watch the breathtaking views of the pool. The entire structure took the studio a year to engineer but only a week to build.

3. The Library Resort in Koh Samui, Thailand, may well have the reddest pool in the world. What makes the Koh Samui pool scary? The red color painted on the pool makes it look quite strange. Also, the red color does not indicate danger. It is simply a scarlet color used to complement the design of the pool. The coloration is caused by the blend of red, yellow and orange tiles used in the pool’s structure.!

4. One of the scariest pools in the world is the Marina Bay Sands, located in Singapore, 191m above ground. Measuring 478 feet long (146 meters), almost three Olympic swimming pools in length, the pool is the world's largest infinity-edge pool at that height. It comprises of 422,000 pounds (191,416 kilos) of stainless steel and holds 380,000 gallons (1,438,456 liters) of water. This pool does not have any guard rails or fences for safety. From a distance, it appears as if swimmers will fall off the side of the building.

5. The Sky Tower pool concept designed DCPP Arquitectos is a condominium in Peru is honesty pretty awesome but terrifying at the same time. The 20-story building rises high above the city with wonderful views of a local golf course. A profile view reveals a dozen concrete-formed diving boards protruding from the façade. The pools protrude from the tower, like birdhouses. These pools overlap one another.

We are hugely relieved that loadshedding has been minimized, but many consumers are certainly feeling the pinch of inflation and are looking for new ways to save more money.
A Solid Safety cover offer instant savings that quickly add up, and the cover pays for itself in a short period. And in winter, it makes even more sense to close the pool when it is not in use. This can be a complete game changer for your household budgets, plus you'll free up a lot of time when you hang up your leaf scoop for a few months.
The Solid Safety Cover is the single most effective physical barrier to prevent child drowning and to secure a pool, conforming to international safety standards as it supports the weight of adults and a child. Importantly, there are no fiddly hooks and eyelets, making the cover quick and easy to use. This blend of simplicity of design, coupled with practical and user-friendly fastening systems are what make this cover the desirable choice over other pool safety systems on the market.
The Solid Safety Cover can also be used to reduce water, chemical and power usage, making it a great cover choice for the eco-friendly home too, as well as a way to winterize or shut down the pool in the off season.
*When closed, the safety cover does not allow any object measuring 114mm in diameter to be forced under the cover / gain access to the water.
*The cover’s fastenings / securing points must not be workable by a small child.
*The cover must have a tensioning / locking system.
*The cover must bear the weight of 220kg.
*No water should pool on top of the cover. After rainfall or if garden sprinklers are used, the water must drain off unaided and the cover must be dry within 5 minutes.
*The safety cover must be installed by an accredited / trained industry supplier.
*The cover should form a complete barrier over the water.
