Self Supporting
This is unique in the above ground pool market, the pool shell is one piece, no assembly required, once the U brace is placed under the pool it is fully self supporting.
Imagine, having your pool structure delivered and pre-assembled. Your pool structure and lining is one piece, solid fibreglass. No little nuts and bolts and no worries about a vinyl liner getting a hole, when the boys are being boys.
The idea for this fibreglass pool came from our Eagleray Boats designer. It’s a simple premise, we make both commercial and family boats that are larger than this that keep our boaties alive and well in open water by keeping the water out. With our expertise in in ground pools, it is a logical extension to build an above ground pool to keep the water in.
Fibreglass is a great material to work with, incredibly strong and flexible. The Princess pool shell is all in one piece and quite literally it’s lifted off the truck and onto the level spot you prepared for it. You connect up the pipes, pump and filter and it’s ready to add water.
We also produce and supply with the pool the U Brace that adds additional strength. We don’t expect you’ll have the local footy team perched on the side of your pool but if that happens it means with the U brace the pool will be fine, leaving you to worry about your visitors eating you out of house and home.
We complement the pool with top shelf in ground pool pumps and filters.
We’ve also put a bit of thought about getting in and out of the pool.
Getting out from the water of the pool is easy, we’ve included steps as part of the structural shell. You have two choices for getting down to the ground or getting into the pool.
A simple addition is a ladder which simply bolts to the side of the pool. Its non-slip treads and high handles make it easy for young and old to get in and out of the pool.
If using the ladder you will need to put a fence around it so the little ones can’t get in.
A very popular option is the steps and gate upgrade. Making a elegant entry or exit is a little easier with this option. The gate at the bottom of the steps is an approved type and serves as a valid pool fence.
On that note the sides of the Princess are 1300mm tall by design, that’s 100mm taller than a required pool fence, meaning that if you keep your pool 1200mm away from any climbable object you may not need to fence the shell, only the ladder. If you have purchased the step and gate option you may not need to fence at all*.
*Remember: pool fence or fencing using the step option, your local council or certifier needs to approve it as a barrier which does mean a quick site visit by them before you add water.
