Insulation
Insulation can slow heat transfer from warm pool water into cooler surrounding ground.
Concrete pools
More time in the water.
Energy-conscious concrete pools designed around comfortable water, lasting construction, and more opportunities to swim.
Pool design-build
The pool is one part of the place.
A useful pool plan connects the water to the house, covered living, hardscape, circulation, grade, drainage, and maintenance.
The goal is water that is ready when you are, with less heat lost between swims. We plan insulation, a cover, and properly selected heating equipment together to support comfortable temperatures through Indiana’s swimming season. Energy use and season length still depend on the weather, pool size, cover use, and temperature you choose.
Huntertown pool project
Water, patio, house, and yard.
At this Huntertown project, the pool, patio, and covered living area come together as one place to spend time outside.

Plan the pool as a system.
Heat leaves through the concrete shell and the water surface. The shell, cover, and equipment should be considered together.
Cover
A cover limits evaporation, an important source of heat loss when the pool is not in use.
Heating and cooling
We consider efficient heat pumps, including models that can also cool, based on pool size, desired temperature, and seasonal conditions.
