About Equator's Polymer Pool
After years of research and development, Equator has introduced a new generation of unique polymer pools on the market. This new concept of flexible panels (patented) allows the creation of endless shapes to better meet today's consumer tastes. Equator's award winning polymer panels are strong and durable. Made of stable, non biodegradable polymer foams, this greatly increases the longevity of the pool. In addition, the cellular structure acts as a thermal screen withholding heat in the pool and blocking the penetrating cold from surrounding soils.
This pool is available in the industry standard panel height of 42" which gives you a 3' water depth in the shallow end of the pool. Equator also makes standard 48" high panels allowing for 6" more water depth in the shallow end of the pool for a total of 3'6" of water! The extra depth is ideal for flat bottom pool designs which have become more popular in recent years, and the 6" of extra water depth in the hopper design pools will increase the comfort level for adults using the shallow end of the pool.
Equator's straight panel is made from 100% virgin, high impact, polystyrene resin. The top, bottom and side rails of the panel is a full 4" wide. Each panel is rigidized with vertical and horizontal ribs. The center vertical rib in the 6' panel allows for an optional deck support every 3'.
Equator's patented Multi-Flex Panel is made from 100% virgin polypropylene non-corrosive material. This panel has a 4" top and bottom rail with a vertical rib running the height of the panel every 4". Double resin strapping secures your Multi-Flex panel into place, maintaining a true radius and added support. Although polymer pools have been available for many years, the one thing they have lacked is the ability to create new shapes. The Multi-Flex panel features patented live hinges which enable you to create endless shapes and designs. The panel allows for a wall/deck brace every 3'.
The heavy duty wall brace system is designed to hold the pool walls in place, giving maximum support. The convenient ground stakes secure the panels from any movement before the pouring of concrete. This guarantees a properly squared pool wall. The brace also allows for the attachment of an optional sonotube which will help carry the deck load and add strength to the overall pool structure.
The panels are engineered with designed cutouts for return fittings. This area is reinforced with a box rib support and premarked for drilling. This ensures all return fittings align as the same level, improving water circulation.
The light panels also contain a premarked area for ease of light installation. The light area is also reinforced and accurately postions the light to the recommended distance from the water line.
Panels for skimmers come precut and ready for installation. No cutting is required for the skimmer and install is a snap!
Top and bottom alignment tabs help align pool walls correctly, which helps to maintain a level wall during installation.
