Currently building a house with a 25m lap pool in the center of the house (pool is outside and the house wraps around it). Will have a bike workshop off the garage....also have a gym. Helps to be a contractor!
Awesome. As a contractor you probably already have this mindset but my opinion on building a lap pool is if you are going to do it, do it right. That means it has to be:
1) Not shallow (not deep, just not shallow).
2) Wide enough for 3 lanes though the outside lanes can be narrowish.
3) Get non-turbulent lane lines.
4) Get spillover gutters.
5) Get a big digital pace clock.
1) Minimum 6ft deep (except stairs obviously, but they come off the side of the pool and not the main section)
2) A bit over 2 lanes wide
3) Planning on it
4) Done. Building a Launter edge pool
5) Digital? Didnt even know you could get a digital pace clock. Pace clock is a must
