Camping site: why choose to install a pool enclosure?

To enable bathing in any season

Installing a pool enclosure over the swimming pool of your camping site enables users to enjoy it more often and later in the season. Indeed, all models of pool enclosure enable bathing despite harsh weather and help to maintain a pleasant temperature for both the pool water and the air under the enclosure. Certain ranges of heated pool enclosures enable year-round swimming.

If your climate is sometimes cold even in the peak season, a pool enclosure can become a true selling point, because guests who are sensitive to the cold will enjoy using the covered pool regardless of the weather and will be assured of a successful holiday. No matter where you are in France (Brittany, the Basque Country, the Périgord or the Roussillon), an enclosure is a big advantage for your camping site because the possibility to offer a covered aquatic area guarantees a successful season and a better occupancy rate.

To offer your guests a true aquatic space

A large, full-height and customised pool enclosure is made to measure and may encompass the pool and coping, but also the terrace around the pool. You can take advantage of it to offer your guests a wide range of activities by installing, for example, water games like a slide or water jets, in order to create a small water park. You can also create a heated leisure area with a jacuzzi, a wellness space with a sauna and spa, but also with garden furniture like deck chairs to relax and laze by the pool. Installing a pool enclosure enables you to create a pleasant living space in your camping site, offering an alternative to the beach and seaside, like an indoor pool, a sheltered terrace or a solarium. This will reinforce your attractiveness with respect to competing tourist accommodation.

To ensure better safety and reinforced protection around the pool

Installing a pool enclosure is the best way to secure and protect a swimming pool. Large pool enclosures that are custom made by an expert for a camping site comply with the French and European standards that are obligatory in order to welcome the public.

The are thus compliant with:

  • Snow and wind standards (NV65 and N84);
  • European sizing standards and Eurocodes justification. If it is a family-oriented camping site, a pool enclosure that complies with all French standards is the solution to avoid drowning or an accident, to enable clients to bathe in total safety and to reassure parents.

To reduce maintenance costs

A pool enclosure protects pool water from debris like dead leaves. It also reduces dirt on the coping and terrace around the pool. This will enable you to greatly reduce the frequency and duration of pool maintenance sessions and thus make real long-term savings.

How do you choose a pool enclosure for your semi-public establishment?

What dimensions should you choose?

The covers for pools or aquatic spaces for camping sites are large enclosures that are entirely made to measure. Over 1 m 80 in height and of a size that adapts to your requirements, these pool enclosures are perfect to create an aquatic space and to enable bathers to fully enjoy the pool in all seasons.

What are the different types of pool enclosure?

You also have a choice among several models of pool enclosures with different opening systems:

  • Fixed roof with liftable panels: the structure remains in place but it is possible to lift several panels and keep them open.
  • Fixed roof with sliding windows: the posts and the structure are also fixed, but it is possible to move the walls to the side to partially open the pool enclosure.
  • Mobile elements: the pool enclosure consists of several independent modules that nest inside each other when you open the enclosure thanks to rails or rollers, in the same way as telescopic or sliding pool enclosures.
  • Fixed enclosure: it is not possible to uncover the pool, this type of enclosure is related to a veranda or an extension.

What are the administrative formalities for a covered pool for a camping site?

Several administrative steps are mandatory if you install a pool enclosure on your camping site:

  • An application for a building permit or a declaration of works at the town hall to obtain town planning permission before installing the enclosure for a covered pool on your camping site.
  • The declaration of the pool enclosure to the tax administration, because this new construction must be taken into account to calculate taxes.
  • An insurance declaration, because a pool enclosure must be covered in case of accident or damages, just like a motorhome.
