Engineering plans, pool modifications, pump calculations and plumbing schematics for residential and commercial projects.
New pools • Renovations • Hydraulic calculations

Lightning Engineering works with pool professionals and project teams on new pools and changes to existing pools. Share the proposed design, equipment information and project location so we can review the engineering needed.
The engineering scope is tailored to the work you propose.
Engineering plans for new swimming pools, developed around the proposed layout and project requirements. The agreed scope identifies the plans and calculations to be provided.
Engineering for pool additions, structural changes and modifications to existing pools. Available original plans and photographs help the team understand the existing construction.
Calculations to support pump selection and the operating requirements of the proposed pool system. Equipment information and the circulation layout are important inputs.
TDH calculations evaluate hydraulic resistance through the pool’s piping, fittings and equipment. The results support the pump and circulation-system design.
Schematics document the proposed pool piping and equipment arrangement within the engineering scope, providing information for project coordination and construction.
Engineering support for different pool project types. The intended use, site conditions and reviewing jurisdiction determine the project-specific requirements.
Start with the proposed pool layout and a description of the work. For a renovation, identify which features, structures or equipment will change and provide the available records of the existing pool.
Pool geometry, piping and equipment selections need to be considered together. Send available equipment specifications and plumbing information with your request so the team can confirm the inputs required for pump and TDH calculations.
A clear sequence for defining and coordinating your project.
Send the location, proposed work and available plans or photographs.
We review your request and confirm fees, deliverables and timing in the proposal.
The team reviews the project information and identifies any further details needed.
Engineering documents are provided within the agreed scope. Share review comments for next steps.
More details about pool engineering and working with our team.
Yes. Our services include engineering for pool additions and modifications. Existing plans, photographs and the proposed changes help determine the required scope.
Total Dynamic Head calculations help evaluate the resistance that the pool pump must overcome in the circulation system. They are used with the project’s flow and equipment requirements to support pump selection.
Yes. We also offer engineering for a range of outdoor structures. Explore the related service pages below or include those structures when describing your project.
No. We provide engineering and design services only. We do not provide inspections, construction, fabrication or installation. Florida Engineering provides inspections for properties in Florida.
The project’s scope, complexity and information requirements affect fees and timing. Scope, deliverables and timing are confirmed in your proposal.
