After years of research and development, KAFKO has introduced a new generation of unique polymer in-ground pools on the market. This new concept of flexible panels (patented) allows the creation of endless shapes to better meet today's consumer tastes.
Our award winning polymer panels are strong and durable. Made of stable, non biodegradable polymer foams, 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.
Kafko's straight panel is made from 100% virgin, high impact, polystyrene resin. The top, bottom and side rails of the panel is 4" wide, each panel is ridgidized with vertical and horizontal ribs.
Three vertical ribs run the height of the panel and two of the ribs are doubled up for the superior strength.
The centre vertical rib in the 6' panels allows for a wall/deck support every 3'.
 | The 6' straight panels are engineered with 2 designated cut-outs for return fittings. This area is reinforced with a box rib support and pre-marked for drilling. This ensures all return fittings align at the same level improving water circulation. |  | Straight polymer panels can be fitted with a large 500 watt light using the pre-marked area. This light area is also reinforced and accurately positions the light to the recommended distance from the water line. |
 | The panel is pre-molded for the Equator Skimmer with skimmer support locator. This system relieves pressure from the plumbing. The Equator Skimmer is the only skimmer sold with its own skimmer support. |  | Top and bottom alignment tabs help align the wall panels correctly, which also helps maintain a level wall construction. |
Kafko'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 have have lacked is the ability to create new shapes.
The MULTI-FLEX panel features patented live hinges which enable you, along with the help of your dealer to choose from one of KAFKO'S many shapes or create your own shape. Panel allows for wall/deck brace support every 3'.
Available in the industry standard panel height of 42" which gives us 3' water depth in the shallow end of the pool. This pool is also available in 48" high panels allowing for 6" more water depth in the shallow end of the pool (3'6" water depth).
The extra water depth is ideal for flat bottom pool designs which have become more popular in recent years, and 6" of extra water depth in hopper design pools will increase the comfort level for adults using the shallow end of the pool.
The Kafko 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 a sono tube which will help carry the deck load and add strength to the overall pool structure.
