VINYL LINER POOL BUILDER USES POLYSTEEL WALL
VINYL LINER POOL BUILDER USES POLYSTEEL WALL
There are 3 types on inground vinyl liner swimming pool walls. One vinyl liner pool builder installs inground vinyl liner pools using POLYSTEEL as the foundation wall for the pool construction. What is POLYSTEEL? We will explain, but first let’s list the 3 types of inground vinyl liner pool walls.
GALVANIZED STEEL WALL:
The galvanized steel pool wall is stronger than Polymer-plastic wall, but galvanized steel has been known to rust and corrode. Galvanized steel is nothing more than zinc coating on the face of the steel roll that is cut and formed into an inground vinyl liner pool wall. But the edges and cutouts is where the galvanization is lost in the manufacturing process so rust starts there after the inground vinyl pool is built and filled with water. It cannot be helped with this type of inground pool wall.
POLYMER-PLASTIC WALL:
The polymer-plastic pool wall panel is sometimes called “Grafex” but all polymer-plastic wall panels are the same. While they don’t rust, they have been known to crack, due to bulging during freeze-thaw cycles in the Northeast part of the U.S. They also don’t have anywhere near the strength of steel pool wall panels.
POLYSTEEL WALL:
Polysteel is another name for polyester powder coating, that is electrostatically applied to the finished galvanized pool wall, and then baked-on in a 400 degree oven. This re-establishes the coating on all of the edges and cutouts that are made in the pool wall panel during manufacturing. Polysteel starts with a “Cardinal” 14 gauge steel wall panel, that is manufactured with G235-2.5 once per square foot coating of zinc galvanizing. Then the entire inground pool wall panel is coated and baked-on with a polyester resin, This re-establishes the corrosion resistance in areas where galvanization has been compromised, such as, skimmer cut-outs, bolt-holes, and cut edges of the galvanized pool wall panel. This vinyl liner pool builder, only installs inground vinyl pools with this POLYSTEEL pool wall.
