Have you always dreamt of having a private swimming pool in your home? Or perhaps, you are considering building a swimming pool as a long-term investment or business opportunity? Regardless of your motivation, remember that proper drainage is a crucial aspect of pool construction.
Cost of Building a Swimming Pool with Good Drainage
The cost of building a swimming pool varies based on several factors, including the type of pool (e.g., overflow or skimmer), desired depth, intended users (e.g., children or adults), and location (e.g., outdoor, indoor, or semi-indoor). Additional factors affecting the budget include the pool's dimensions, materials used, labor costs, and the chosen drainage system.
Benefits of having an effective swimming pool drainage system
A good drainage system is essential for keeping a swimming pool clean and safe. During heavy rain, it prevents outside water from entering the pool, protecting the filtration system and reducing maintenance costs.
Effective drainage also manages stormwater, preventing standing water, structural damage, and the introduction of dirt and debris into the pool.
Additionally, it minimizes the risk of slipping and ensures the water quality remains safe and healthy by preventing bacteria and algae growth.
So, how much money do you have to prepare to build a swimming pool?
The cost of building a swimming pool is affected by many factors, as stated above. For example, a 3x5 meter pool with a depth of 2 meters could cost around Rp140,000,000. This includes the price of materials like cement, sand, and ceramics, labor costs, and the cost of filling the pool with water (source: Detik).
To get a more accurate estimate, you can contact a pool construction service for a consultation. They can give you a cost range and help you start saving money for your new pool.
Saving Money to Build a Swimming Pool is More Practical and Easier with the Jago Application
Both Jago and Jago Syariah users can utilize the Jago application to save money for their swimming pool construction.
1. Crate a new Jago/Jago Syariah Saving Pocket for savings associated with building the swimming pool
The initial step is to create a new Saving Pocket in the Jago application, separate from your existing Pockets. You can create numerous Jago/Jago Syariah Pockets.
The purpose of a separate Pocket for swimming pool construction is to prevent the allocated budget from mixing with funds for other needs or expenses. Additionally, a separate Pocket ensures you don't mistakenly use the budget for different purposes.
2. Save by moving money automatically or manually to the Saving Pocket
Once your Saving Pocket is created, which only takes a few seconds, you can start saving towards your swimming pool goal.
With the Jago application, you can choose to save automatically or manually. To save automatically based on a schedule and budget you set, turn on the automatic budgeting feature in your chosen Saving Pocket.
You can also create savings targets in your Pocket to track your progress.
Note that the Jago Saving Pocket and Jago Syariah Saving Pocket have differences. Read more about the differences between Jago and Jago Syariah in this article.
3. Once you have saved enough, consider transferring your savings to a Jago Term Deposit/Sharia Deposit
Deposits are another saving option at Bank Jago/Jago Syariah.
Once you have saved enough money in your Saving Pocket, you can transfer it to a deposit.
Jago users can open Jago Term Deposits and Jago Syariah users can create Sharia Deposits directly from the Jago application anytime and from anywhere.
You can choose a deposit period that suits your needs and an automatic renewal (ARO) if needed.
By saving in Jago Term Deposits, Jago users will get competitive interest based on the amount of principal funds saved. Meanwhile, Jago Syariah users will get profit sharing by saving money in Sharia Deposits.
