Looking ahead to the coming summer months, it is common for many people in Spain to consider building a swimming pool, although it is important to know the cost of installing it. The cost of a construction pool will depend on different factors, ranging from its size to the construction materials used, as well as the air conditioning and purification equipment, and even its orientation.
Depending on the type of pool you want to build, other additional expenses will have to be added, such as the building license and the construction project, which will cost around 2,000 euros, which would be added to the 14,000 euros on average that it costs to build a pool. . . Furthermore, if you want to install an outdoor shower and condition the area surrounding the pool, the budget can skyrocket to more than 20,000 euros.
We must not forget that in some cases it will be necessary to design municipal taxes that can reach up to 2,000 euros, depending both on its characteristics and on the Autonomous Community itself in which the home in which it is to be installed is located. It must also be taken into account that the annual maintenance is between 500 and 1,000 euros.
The price of a pool according to its type.
When talking about the price of swimming pools, we must refer to their different types. Construction pools are the most expensive, and it is common for them to be made of concrete covered with tile, which is the most durable. Although the final price will depend on the materials, dimensions, finishes, equipment and land, it is common for its cost to be close to 700 euros per square meter.
Another possibility is prefabricated pools, which are easier to install than the previous ones, although they require excavation of the hole in which it will be placed, unless they are elevated. Once introduced into it, you will only have to place coatings, their connections and install the purification equipment. On average, pools are 30% cheaper, with an average price of between 8,000 and 10,000 euros.
A third way is to opt for removable pools, although before proceeding with their installation it is advisable to know if it is legal to install it. They are generally made of wood, galvanized steel and PVC, although they can be made of various materials. These can be dismantled if not used, as their name suggests, or they can be kept throughout the year if desired, although in that case they will have to be covered and insulated appropriately. Its price is much cheaper than the previous ones, ranging between 1,000 and 5,000 euros.
Finally, we must mention inflatable pools, the most economical option of all, since they can be located almost anywhere and only require a pump to inflate them and, in some cases, some support structures. Its maintenance is minimal and you can enjoy good quality models from 100 euros.
