Process - Get a Plunge Pool In 8 simple steps
Plunge simplifies the pool-building process into 8 steps. It gives builders more control over their projects, and homeowners can enjoy a premium concrete swimming pool in days, not months.
Choose your Plunge Design
This is the easy part. We will quote you for the supply and delivery of your Pool, as well as the supply and plumbing services for your chosen equipment. We have clear specifications for the Caroline, Congress, Press Box, and the Broadway to help you decide which model is right for your project. These are found in step 1 of the Install Guide.
Standard building approval
For further information, contact your county's or municipality's permit office. In order to make life easier, we'll provide you with pre-engineered specifications for pool construction and footings, based on the site classification you choose.
Basic Site Preparation
Every Plunge Pool must sit on a pre-engineered concrete slab footing, specific to the particular soil type of the site. We’ll supply standardized base preparation requirements for each pool model, covering the slab specification and excavation plan
Crane
At the point of delivery, a crane is required to lift the pool from our delivery truck and place it onto the concrete base slab footing. Every Pool is manufactured with pre-engineered pick-up points for crane lifting. Helpful, right?
Crane hire is one of the most variable factors in an installation, as the ease of access to the property heavily impacts the process. We recommend that the Pool is installed on site at the vacant lot or slab stage for operational ease. It’s still possible to install a Plunge Pool at an existing property, but more care needs to be taken when lifting the pool over the house.
Electrical + back fill
Next, a trade-qualified electrician must ground your Pool. If the Pool is being installed in-ground or semi-recessed, you will need to backfill the over-excavated area. Low-cost options such as recycled drainage gravel will do the trick and allow for drainage away from the concrete footing.
Standard plumb up
Every Pool is supplied with its primary plumbing fixtures pre-fitted (you’re welcome!). This includes the skimmer box, hydrostatic valve, and filtration returns. You’ll need to ensure that the required power provisions are made available for your chosen equipment package to run on.
Finishings
With a Plunge Pool, you can enjoy all the efficiencies of prefabrication while having plenty of options for personalization. Once the pool is installed, the following elements can be added to help it align with your project design: Tile, Waterlines tiles, Decking, Paving, landscaping.
Fill + start up
Prior to filling, the Plunge Pool requires final certification and inspection. It is vital that you install the hydrostatic valve, an in-depth guide can be found in step 8 of the Plungie Install Guide.
You can then arrange for the pool to be filled. It will take anywhere between 6-12 hours to fill a Plunge Pool with a garden hose or as little as 15 minutes if you engage a local water delivery service.
