Infinity Edge Pool

13m x 6m - Mirambeau, Gironde Estuary, FR

For this project Bluepools was the Design and Build contractor. We took the project over from a French pool builder that had gone bankrupt.

Bluepools also provided all the pool plant including:

Air Handling System
Complex Control System
Pipework
Pumps
Filters
Buidling Works for a Submerged Automatic Floating Cover

Bluepools commissioned all the systems and installed and fine tuned the chemical dosing systems.

Bluepools was the owner of the 2.5 tonne Komatsu digger - unfortunately it was destroyed in a motorway accident that Will was lucky to survive without a scratch!
