Connecting swimming pool to plant

Hey guys, I'm trying to model a swimming pool inside my building in E+, but I have never worked with water equipment and plant loops before, so I am looking for some basic know-how and guidelines (Maybe even a tutorial if anyone knows where to find that).

So i created my swimming pool object. Next step would be to create a HVACTemplate:Plant:MixedWaterLoop and a HVACTemplate:Plant:Boiler? How do I connect my pool to the loop? Through branches? Do I need to make a thermostat object to control the water temperature? It seems like that is included in the pool object.

Any help would be appreciated.
