POSITION not always have a fish pond in the garden or outside space. You can create it anywhere as you wish, even if the elements are right in the living room or family room.
Applying a fish pond in the house is very pleasant. Always have the effect of fresh, natural, and cold water produced by the crackle sound. Not surprisingly, the pool often regarded as an element that can provide special effects for you to have it. Interestingly, the pool will no longer be a mere complement a garden. Now, the pool is adopted to enhance already existing floor space.
“Actually, do not have to be a fish pond outside the room or in the park. You can create positions anywhere in your favor. In fact, if you want a fish pond right in the living room floor, it clearly can, “says architect Briyan Talaosa from Studio 3 +.
However, to make the pool was designed as a floor general, requires more funds than usual made pond. If the estimated cost is estimated at about Rp2, 5 million per square meter.
“This concept is more expensive because it takes temperednya glass pocket almost Rp1 million per square meter. Not to other equipment, “said Briyan.
Although relatively expensive, it makes it too difficult. Almost the same way as you create a pool in the garden. Something that makes it different, other than water and air circulation systems and waterproofing it, you should also pay attention to construction detail the structure and the pool, plus a whole building.
By construction, Briyan said, how to create a pool is almost the same as a slab of the building of two floors. However, the slab material is replaced with laminated tempered glass that is placed on the readers? Media should really mean in a state, such as concrete or steel frame structure.
Meanwhile, for vibration damping, use rubber or glue between the glass and the media and antarmodul bottom of the glass itself. The same thing is said architect Joshua Villys Yoenan.
He states, construction of the pool floor is actually quite simple. Stay a levee ponds suitable model you want, whether round or square. After that, around the pool made of waterproofing to avoid water infiltration. Tanggulnya material depends on the pool area.
Josh suggested, if the area you wish to pool area, you should use the structure and cast iron. Or when the pool is made of small and low, can use brick as a dike. Then it stayed on the tempered glass is applied with a thickness of 12 mm for every 1 square meter for stronger when trampled underfoot.
“Do not forget, use tongs or a glass of stainless steel is strong enough to support the glass so as not to shift when there is movement of the feet when you walk on it,” said Yos.
Furthermore, another requirement, namely artificial light. As the fish ponds in general, the pool on the floor also need light to illuminate the “space” underneath. To that end, Briyan suggested, note the time of installation to avoid installation problems in the electric short circuit caused the pond water.
Similarly, even the placement of the water pump, oxygen pump, and other accessories, would be adjusted to the conditions on site.
“And, make sure no air circulation to get into the fish pond. Do not let the vacuum due to retained glass, “Yos said
