Private Villas, Bang Tao — pool systems after a flood

Shortly before a big flood, we had replaced all the equipment in the underground pump room at one of the villas; two to three months later, the flood came and all of that new equipment had to be thrown away. After the flood, we built new pump rooms at three villas in the complex, two of which are shown here. At one villa, we replaced the pool system and moved the equipment from the underground pump room into the garage. At two villas, the pump rooms were already above ground: we raised the pumps to a higher level and did a full overhaul of the systems, replacing the sand filters and adding salt-water systems; one of these is shown here. UV sterilisers were added as part of the upgrades. Across these villas, we also regrouted the mosaic, fitted new pool lights, and redid the burnt-out light wiring.

Our work at the complex runs from 2020 to 2025 and is ongoing. Across the seven villas, equipment fails or burns out from time to time, and we repair or replace it.
