Types of pools popular in France

Across France, pool preferences often reflect the architectural and regional character of each area. Homeowners in the south frequently opt for infinity or mirror-edge custom pools, ideal for hillside views over the Côte d’Azur. In contrast, properties in regions like Brittany and the Loire Valley tend to favor heated or covered pools to extend the swimming season.

Natural pools and eco-friendly systems have also gained popularity, allowing homeowners to enjoy a chemical-free, environmentally conscious approach to leisure. MPG’s luxury pool builders are skilled in designing each style, from sleek urban lap pools to resort-style oases surrounded by Mediterranean gardens.

Climate and regional considerations for French pools

France’s varied climates—from the Mediterranean warmth of Marseille to the cooler Atlantic breezes of Bordeaux and the continental conditions around Lyon—play a vital role in every design. Pool heating, covers, and efficient filtration systems are often integrated to ensure year-round enjoyment. The soil composition also differs greatly across the country, requiring precise engineering to maintain stability and durability in each project. MPG members account for these regional nuances to ensure every structure stands the test of time.

Legal requirements for pool construction in France

Homeowners in France must comply with national safety standards under the Code de la Construction et de l’Habitation, which requires certified barriers, alarms, or covers for all private pools. In addition, certain installations may require local planning permission, especially for large or above-ground structures. Working with experienced pool builders ensures compliance with all regulations, from initial approval to final inspection.
