Apollo NZ GlobalStart Project Brief
Auremont Container Pools

Auremont Contractor + Ownership Centre

Prepare it properly. Commission it clearly. Keep it serviceable.

Auremont is a factory-prepared modular pool system, but the destination project still needs coordinated site preparation, lifting, connections, commissioning and ongoing care. This centre turns those responsibilities into one practical sequence without replacing the current project drawings, supplier manuals or local professional requirements.

Project sequence

Five stages from approved pool to long-term ownership.

The strongest installation process keeps the supplied pool, local site works and owner handover connected rather than treating them as separate jobs.

01

Project release

Freeze the selected Auremont size, installation relationship and configured options before site interfaces are treated as final.

Approved project CADConfirmed equipment scheduleConfigured cover / window / internal optionsDestination and site responsibilities identified
02

Site preparation

Prepare the receiving site around the actual configured pool, not a generic container footprint.

Foundation / support solution completedDrainage and surrounding levels coordinatedService routes accessibleCrane and receiving route confirmed
03

Placement + connection

Set the pool on the prepared support, preserve service access and complete local utility connections.

04

Commissioning

Check the installed system before normal use and capture the configuration that was actually commissioned.

05

Handover + ownership

Treat handover as the start of the operating record, not the end of the project.

Final manuals and warranty information retainedEquipment model / serial references recordedMaintenance access kept clearService and water-care records started

Responsibility matrix

Separate supply, local project work and ownership from the start.

The written quotation and project documents control the actual scope. This matrix is a planning framework so important local work is not assumed to be inside the pool package.

01

Apollo / supplied package

Current pool configuration, available technical information, selected factory-supplied equipment and accessories, project documentation expressly included with the order.

02

Local project team

Foundation / support, site measurement, crane and lifting plan, local utilities, drainage, structural interfaces, barriers, approvals, landscaping and regulated trade work unless specifically included elsewhere.

03

Owner / operator

Routine water care, cleaning, maintaining access to equipment, arranging servicing, following supplied operating information and keeping relevant service / warranty records.

Contractor readiness

What should be resolved before the pool arrives.

Final site preparation must follow the configured pool and current project documents. Generic web dimensions should not be used to finalise structural support, deck openings or crane selection.

Support + finished levels

Confirm the local foundation / support solution, pool position, finished level, retaining interfaces and drainage before delivery. Decks and surrounds should follow the confirmed pool location.

Foundation planning

Delivery + lifting

Confirm truck route, crane setup, lift path, overhead obstacles and site readiness using the configured pool's current logistics and lifting information.

Use delivery planner

Services + drainage

Provide practical routes for electrical supply, water, drainage, backwash / maintenance discharge and any local equipment connections without blocking future service access.

Services planning

Barriers + approvals

Coordinate pool barriers, gates, deck edges, electrical work, structural interfaces, inspections and local approvals with the destination professionals and authorities responsible for them.

Approval planning

Commissioning checklist

Before normal use, verify the installed system and document what was handed over.

This checklist organises the handover. It does not replace the exact commissioning requirements of the installed equipment or any local regulated work.

01

Confirm the pool is sitting at the intended level and that visible support / interface conditions match the project plan.

02

Check the equipment bay is dry, ventilated where required and accessible for inspection and future component replacement.

03

Confirm local electrical connections, protection and isolation have been completed for the actual supplied equipment.

04

Confirm fill, filtration, heating, treatment, lighting and control functions operate as intended before normal use.

05

Check all accessible hydraulic connections for signs of leakage during initial operation.

06

Confirm backwash / maintenance discharge and surrounding drainage routes are usable and do not undermine the support area.

07

Confirm the selected cover opens, closes, parks and can be serviced without obstruction.

08

For viewing-window pools, inspect the visible panel / seal interface and retain the supplied care instructions.

09

Record the supplied equipment models, serial references and any control settings handed over with the project.

10

Retain the final quotation, approved drawings, equipment schedule, manuals, warranty information and commissioning notes together.

Owner care

Design the pool so routine maintenance remains easy after the landscaping is finished.

Exact maintenance products, service intervals and water targets must follow the actual equipment, finish, cover and destination requirements. The principles below are deliberately system-level.

Water + filtration

Maintain water quality and filtration in accordance with the supplied equipment and local pool-care requirements. Cleaning, backwash or filter-service procedures depend on the actual installed system.

Equipment bay

Keep the equipment area accessible, ventilated where required and free from standing water, stored items or landscaping that prevents inspection, isolation or component removal.

FRP interior + finishes

Use cleaning products and methods suitable for the supplied pool finish. Avoid assuming that abrasive pads, aggressive chemicals or unrelated surface-care products are appropriate.

Acrylic viewing window

Use the care method supplied for the actual acrylic panel. Protect the face from scratching and do not use unapproved cleaners, tools or solvents on the window or seal interface.

Structure + surrounds

Keep drainage working around the pool, watch for trapped moisture or damaged finishes, and do not alter support points, penetrations, retaining or surrounding structural interfaces without suitable project review.

Cover system

Keep tracks, recesses and moving zones clear. Follow the actual manual, automatic or sliding-deck cover instructions and arrange service when movement, controls or components no longer operate normally.

Cover ownership

Each cover pathway creates a different maintenance responsibility.

Final operating and servicing instructions come from the exact supplied cover. Do not apply load, safety or operating assumptions from one cover type to another.

01

Manual cover

Keep the cover clean, dry it appropriately before prolonged storage, inspect attachment / rolling components and avoid dragging it over damaging surfaces.

02

Automatic electric cover

Keep the moving path clear, do not force a stalled system, preserve access to the motor / controls and use the supplied operating and servicing information.

03

Sliding deck cover

Keep rails / travel paths clear, monitor alignment and drainage, avoid adding unverified loads or modifications, and preserve access to drive / support components.

Coastal + exposed ownership

Exposure should change the maintenance plan, not just the original specification.

Coastal, island and high-humidity sites can be harder on exposed finishes and equipment. Build inspection and cleaning into the ownership routine and keep the service zone dry and accessible.

Tell Apollo and the project team that the site is coastal, island, high-humidity or otherwise aggressive before final specification.Keep salt, debris and trapped moisture from accumulating around exposed metalwork, equipment and access areas.Inspect coatings, fasteners, exposed interfaces and equipment enclosures as part of routine ownership rather than waiting for visible deterioration.Use only maintenance products and touch-up systems compatible with the actual supplied finish.Keep equipment ventilation and drainage working; screening should not create a permanently damp enclosure.

Handover record

Keep one controlled project file for the life of the pool.

If equipment is serviced or replaced later, a clear handover record makes it easier to identify what was originally supplied and what changed after installation.

01Final approved project drawing / CAD
02Final quotation and supplied-scope record
03Equipment schedule with model references
04Electrical / hydraulic information provided with the project
05Installation and commissioning information
06Operating and maintenance manuals
07Cover / acrylic-window care information where applicable
08Warranty terms and claim pathway
09Service, repair and replacement-part records
10Relevant local approvals / inspections retained by the project team

Service + warranty pathway

Record the issue before replacing parts or altering the system.

When a fault appears, record the pool reference, affected component, model / serial information where available, photographs or video, symptoms and any recent work. Keep warranty review separate from unauthorised modifications or unrelated site faults.
