Tenhours is a convenient length of time for heating the w-ater,because the required apparatus is not specially large. Ifthe apparatus was much smaller it would, of course, requirea longer time to heat the water, and this time added tothat necessary to empty and clean the pool would make theperiod of time which the pool would be out of commissiontoo long. The time required to empty and clean this poolis 4 to 5 hours. fy///---i-/y/////////^^^^^^. ri Lon3iti;dinol Sec+lc ?;! 1^ i_ r —-f-^^-y^~i ^^^insBr i i Pool
