Structural
Framework
Manufactured from aluminium alloy AIMgSi Group 6060T6. A wide range
of extrusions available to safely span commercial pools in width and practically
any length.
External
Finish
Powered polyester-coated
by electrostatic multi-layered spraying to give a smooth appearance in
up to 180 RAL colours.
Roofing
250 times stronger than
glass. LEXAN® THERMOCLEAR® DRIPGUARD® Manufactured by General
Electric Plastics in a double wall cellular structure to ensure minimum
loss of natural heat gained during the day. 6mm thickness gives optimum
co-efficient for temperature increase due to the greenhouse effect. It
is treated to reduce the formation of water droplets due to condensation
and also treated against the suns UVA rays to help keep your swimming pool
free from any heavy growth of algae or mould. LEXAN® is virtually unbreakable.
Side
Walls
Crystal clear tough Polymethyl Methacrylate (PLEXIGLASS) is much
safer than any other form of glazing and easy to maintain.
Weatherproofing
Antistatic Synthetic fibre sealing brushes used throughout the building
keep out the wind, dust, leaves, snow and rain to give you a nice indoor
feeling.
Rollers,
Guides and Joining elements
To enable easy, smooth
opening and closing, a no-track /rail free system is used, leaving nothing
to trip on when the building is opened up.
Each section of the building
is connected to the next one by a patented system of counter gliding fitted
inside the bottom rails and once again stainless steel is used for longevity.
Temporary
fixing to the ground
is achieved with stainless
steel quick release fixations, requiring minimum effort to attach and detach
whenever necessary.

Back ends
of buildings
Normally fixed but can
be removable in 1 to 5 pieces, for example when stacking direction is reversed
(from large to small).
Front ends
of buildings
Can be removable in
1 to 5 pieces but normally is a tiltable front panel, counterbalanced (like
an up and over garage door) allowing the whole building to be opened back
without obstruction.
Foundations
Eureka Telescopic Pool
buildings are made to a very large structural safety margin, but do not
require deep foundations. The existing pool patio usually suffices (provided
it is relatively smooth), but ideally a 10cm concrete base enables the
winterising tie down bolts to be properly anchored. We can suggest during
the site visit if some ground work is advisable.
Building
Controls
Our buildings comply
with Building Regulations for planning purposes, in respect of wind and
snow loading and also fire resistance of the roof.
Planning
Permission (not normally
required)
Eureka Telescopic Pool Buildings satisfy the permitted development rules
but our Directors can advise if planning permission is necessary and if
required will offer our services in submitting a planning application to
the local authority and gaining approval.
New swimming
pools to be built
Eureka liase with good
quality swimming pool builders throughout the UK and Ireland to ensure
the smooth progress for planning, designing, building and finishing of
your complete pool and telescopic building project.
Terms of
business
Should the building
not be required for several months, a 10% initial payment is required to
progress your order and freeze the price. 40% payment in total is needed
some 6 weeks prior to the required installation date. The 60% balance is
then due on installation.
