Features
After years of research and development, KAFKO has introduced a new
generation of unique polymer inground 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
witholding heat in the pool and blocking the pnetrating cold from
surronding 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
virtical ribs run the height of the panel and two of the ribs are
doubled up for the superior strength. The center vertical rib in the 6'
panels allows for a wall/deck support every 3'.

The 6' straight panels are engineered with 2 designated cutouts for
return fittings. This area is reinforced with a box rib support and
premarked 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 premarked area. This light area is also reinforced and
accurately positions the light to the recommended distance from the
water line.

The panel is premouled 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.
