Just wondered if anyone has built a small pool/plunge pool here? 

I'm starting mine today, pump and filter plus heater. Lighting are on order, and now the hardware stores are open, I can get the material needed, if anyone has built one. Any tips, things I should consider.... Picture is start of it...

Great idea to cool off during those hot evenings.

I like that - our plunge pool is not pumped or filtered - just filled occasionally when we want a cool down and emptied after.

Are there any ways of dealing with smaller volumes of water to keep it clean without the need for a pump and filter.

Its about 1600 x 850 x 550

Yea - correct - but thats on the basis of fill use and empty quickly - not ongoing

I am surprised that you mention a heater for the pool. :89:  We have a small pool and use it to cool off.

Place a sign over it:

I Don’t Swim in Your Toilet, So Don’t Pee in My Pool!

I’d also have it translated into Tagalog and / or whatever other native languages are spoken in your extended family.
