UNLIMITED COVER
When focusing on polycarbonate and acrylic glazed telescopic enclosures it’s easy to forget
that other less costly alternatives are available and this is where Pool Enclosures Unlimited comes in. Compax is a fixed, clear span barrel-vault structure, glazed with replaceable panels of highly tensioned reinforced PVC. Excellent light transmission glazing and a clear span frame design. The Compax is a full height enclosure that will extend the swimming season and reduce heating costs and cleaning time. On a warm day if unrestricted access to the pool and a cooling breeze is needed, both end walls can be raised to form a canopy providing superb ventilation. Access doors provide entrance at other times. The curved frame sections create a structure of strength and durability.
Pool Enclosures Unlimited also offer a unique range of retracting folding pool enclosures of which there are three models; Buffalo – a low- level pool cover; Amazone – a full-height pool enclosure; and Amazone Grande – a commercial model spanning up to 15 metres. All can be moved quickly and easily off the pool without the need of a track. A patented folding system links each frame section allowing the enclosure to concertina smoothly as it is moved on or off the pool. When extending the enclosure back over the pool, the folding system locks into place, holding the main structure rigid and tensioning the flexible glass clear crystal PVC glazing. The main structure is a substantial, powder-coated aluminium framework that is secured to the pool surround with quick-release ground anchors.
CONVENTIONAL GOOD LOOKS One of the most enduring telescopic pool enclosures on the market has to be the Slidaway which has been manufactured in the UK since 1994. Good to look at and tough enough to cope with anything the weather can throw at it the Slidaway is a popular choice for end-users who are opting for a traditional look. Despite its conventional appearance, Slidaway is up to the minute from a technical viewpoint. The all aluminium frame is strengthened with fully welded internal stiffeners and stainless steel fixings. For safety reasons the roof is constructed from twin wall polycarbonate and the sides and ends of toughened glass. The building can be opened and closed manually or by motorised means.
