Warming up by the sun's rays, the “aroma” will intensify, causing unpleasant sensations of children: dizziness, nausea, headaches.

Raw materials must be flexible, resilient, resistant. This quality is especially applicable to the capacities used for active children's games - running, jumping, skiing. The material must withstand high physical pressure without tension, deformation.

For the manufacture of swimming pools for children use the following materials:

• polyvinyl chloride (PVC) - the most common raw material used for the manufacture of pools, usually laid in 3 or more layers;

The most common type of children's artificial pond is an inflatable structure. The product is arranged quite simply: represented by the bottom and side walls. Inflated quickly through the pump, gaining a full-fledged look. The walls of the water reservoir differ in the degree of filling with air. There are models that require full filling. Some species are represented only by an inflatable ring.

The flat is intended for older children who prefer active pastime. Feeling support, the child moves more confidently in the water. Pay attention to how to empty the water tank. Small containers are freed up by turning over or manually. Oversized samples are equipped with a special valve - an opening that provides drainage of water.

Frame models are distinguished by dense, flat walls. Some are supported by stable, plastic frames. Designs quickly unfold. Just a few minutes - and the tank is ready. Easy to clean.

A variety of children's pools allows you to choose a model for any age category. Thanks to a huge selection of shapes, sizes, it is possible to choose a copy of the corresponding available area. Naturally, inflatable pools have the greatest variety.

A device equipped with fountains has several advantages. The fountain jet is additionally refreshing. And, of course, it causes an endless storm of positive emotions. The fountain is formed by a stream of water emerging under pressure from a water tap. The tank is connected to the water supply system through a hose and a special hole.

They are represented by shallow tanks, supplemented by various game structures: slides, decorative figures, waterfalls, and labyrinths. Designed for outdoor games. therefore suitable for active kids. However, they require a certain age limit of about 6-7 years. Older children will be rather uncomfortable, because the area of ​​the complex is small. Often the design is designed in a certain style.

Pupils of 8-10 years old are ideally suited to a rigid construction. The frame, reinforced with additional stiffeners, is more durable and stable. Such a pool is more capacious than previous models. It is often equipped with additional devices: drain valves, a motor for circulating water, and cleaning filters. The product looks reliable, large-scale, unshakable. Holds a large company.

The product provides air filling exclusively rings located along the edges of the tank. The annular board, filling, pulls the walls of the tank.

When choosing a children's pool, of course, the age of the child is taken into account. Children 1-2 years old purchase models equipped with low sides. It is better to opt for colorful options that attract attention and interest children. The recommended depth is 20 cm. For children 2-7 years, it is preferable to choose a tank with a depth of 50-70 cm. Game complexes will be a good choice. A colorful design is also welcomed, preferably in a stylized form.

This age period is encompassed by gaming activities, children have their favorite characters. therefore A great option would be a pool that personifies a priority character or plot. The range of such products is constantly updated with new products. You can inflate in the courtyard the castle of the beautiful princess, the famous kitty Hello Kitty, many Disney characters.

Pupils and adults will be satisfied with a reservoir of 1 meter or more in depth. The main thing is to choose persistent, reliable options. The next selection criterion is the destination of the tank. Typically, this is a summer house or beach. For a summer residence, an ideal option would be a stationary pool that provides sufficient space, reliability, and durability. but The establishment of such a design implies a number of limitations.

If it is not possible to establish a stationary option, it is realistic to choose a model among portable applicants. Kids must buy a copy with a visor. It is suitable for hiking on the beach. Choosing volumetric tanks, the installation site serves as a guideline. You should evaluate the size of the area, and then select the appropriate size of the tank. The summer cottage is teeming with potential weapons for destroying inflatable tanks: small pebbles, twigs are capable of piercing ductile material. therefore Get dense, durable samples.

Proper operation of a children's water product is the key to the comfort and safety of the child, as well as the durability of the pool. When installing the structure on the street (cottage, beach), carefully prepare the place. Clear the area, freeing from stones, sticks, sharp debris. It is better to lay a protective awning under the bottom. Do not place the product under trees, as small woody parts will quickly clog the water. Upon termination of use, Keeping the container collected, try to cover the surface with a protective awning. The latter reduces the amount of incident sunlight that destroys the material of the structure. Prevents subsidence of dust, debris.

When considering the installation location, consider the method of filling the tank with water. Try to place it closer to the source of water. Choose a sunny space so that the water heats up faster. It is unacceptable to use sharp objects that can pierce the inflatable structure. And It is forbidden to get animals with sharp claws and teeth.

The product should be inflated with the pump supplied with the kit. The rule applies to large models. Also check for a drain valve. Structures with high sides of more than a meter are equipped with a ladder that facilitates crossing over the side. Finding children in the pool requires compliance with safety rules. The main thing is that children should swim under the supervision of adults. Do not let the child bend over the side of the tank to prevent injury to the child. Fill the tank with 80% water. Limit your bathing time by preventing the baby from cooling down.

The water balance of the tank is an important issue. Keep the fluid filled clean. Replace regularly. Be sure to thoroughly wash the bottom, sides, emptying the container. The sun causes water to bloom. The sides are covered with mud, causing the development of pathogenic bacteria. But it is worth remembering: water-disinfecting products are not recommended for relatively children's pools, especially designed for the smallest bathers.

Particular attention is paid to the temperature of the water, which should not be lower than + 22 ° C. SanPiN officially establishes permissible norms of temperature water regime. However, these standards are determined by the purpose of the pool. The main task of maintaining the desired water temperature inside the air frame is to avoid hypothermia of the child. This is especially true for young children passively taking water procedures. The optimum water temperature for babies is + 27 ... 30 ° C.

Pupils, children 6-10 years old prefer active water games. Constantly moving, fidgets provoke the release of energy. Freezing them is more difficult. The temperature norm of water in these circumstances is + 24 ° C. Naturally, it is necessary to control the time of bathing the child. A thermometer will help to monitor the temperature regime. Owners of an inflatable product should get a repair kit. It includes glue, a few patches.

The inflatable pool is a great way to entertain the guys:
