At Artesanos Hydro, our expert team specializes in the installation of FRP (Fiberglass-Reinforced Polymer) swimming pools, ensuring a durable, low-maintenance, and visually stunning addition to any property. Our meticulous installation process involves carefully positioning the FRP shell, sealing all joints and connections, and applying a protective coating to guarantee a long-lasting and corrosion-free finish
Why FRP Swimming Pools?
That’s correct! One of the significant advantages of Artesanos Hydro‘s FRP swimming pools is their eco-friendly and cost-effective design. The fiberglass material used in the construction of these pools does not pose a risk of leaching water, chemicals, or corrosion into the surrounding groundwater, making them an environmentally friendly option. Additionally, the fiberglass material acts as a natural insulator, reducing the energy required for filtration and heating systems, resulting in lower operating costs for homeowners.
That’s a great point! Fiberglass pools are indeed an environmentally friendly option for those who are concerned about the impact of their pool on the environment. The non-porous surface of fiberglass pools reduces the need for frequent chemical use, as the surface is naturally resistant to algae growth and stains. This means less frequent cleaning and lower electricity consumption, which not only benefits the environment but also saves homeowners money on their utility bills. Furthermore, the smooth surface of fiberglass pools allows for efficient cleaning with automatic cleaners, reducing the amount of water waste and maintenance required.
That’s a significant advantage of fiberglass pools! With a fiberglass pool, the convenience and speed of installation are unmatched. Your new pool is delivered to your backyard already assembled, ready to be installed and filled with water, allowing you to start enjoying it within a week. In contrast, concrete pools require a lengthy and messy construction process that can disrupt your daily life for months. The digging and construction process can be noisy, messy, and unsightly, leaving your backyard looking like a construction site. With a fiberglass pool, you can skip all that hassle and get straight to the fun of swimming and enjoying your new pool!
That’s a great point! The non-abrasive smooth gelcoat finish on fiberglass pools is a significant advantage, providing a comfortable and safe swimming experience. The smooth surface and rounded corners eliminate the risk of scratches, cuts, and scrapes, making it an ideal option for families with children or individuals who want to enjoy a worry-free swimming experience. Additionally, the seamless joints provide a sleek and visually appealing appearance, adding to the overall aesthetic of the pool. This feature also reduces the risk of water leakage and makes maintenance easier, as there are no crevices for dirt and debris to accumulate.
The low-maintenance aspect of fiberglass pools is a major selling point! The smooth, non-porous surface of the gelcoat finish makes it extremely resistant to algae growth, which means less cleaning and fewer chemicals are needed to keep the pool looking its best. This can translate to up to 40% less chemical usage, which is not only better for the environment but also saves you money on your pool maintenance budget. Additionally, the pH levels in fiberglass pools tend to stay within a stable range, reducing the risk of stains and discoloration. And, as you mentioned, fiberglass pools don’t require grouting and acid washing every three years like concrete pools do, making them a much more hassle-free option
Fiberglass pools truly shine when it comes to durability and strength! With up to 17 times more strength than concrete pools, they can withstand heavy use and harsh conditions without compromising their structure. Additionally, their ability to stretch up to 30.5 mm without causing damage is impressive. Furthermore, fiberglass pools are less prone to corrosion, making them a great choice for areas with corrosive substances or high humidity. Their resistance to seismic loads also makes them an excellent option for areas prone to earthquakes. Plus, their lightweight structure reduces the structural load on buildings, making them the ideal choice for free-standing pools on balconies and rooftops.
Fiberglass pools are not only strong and durable, but also energy-efficient and cost-effective! They can operate in a “thermal” mode for a significant number of hours, resulting in substantial energy savings. Additionally, the overall cost of a fiberglass pool is generally lower compared to traditional concrete pools. This is due to the fact that fiberglass pools require less labor and materials to construct, as well as fewer maintenance and repair costs over time.
That’s impressive! Artesanos Hydro is backing up their product with a comprehensive 30-year warranty, covering the quality performance of their pool from the date of manufacture. This level of warranty speaks to the confidence they have in their product and the value they place on their customers’ satisfaction.
