Like any other finely crafted piece of work, Yankee Pools owes its existence
to the creative design concepts of skilled engineers. Paying particular
attention to safety, strength and aesthetics, our designers concieve a pattern
which is first drafted on paper then built as a solid structure composed
of steel and wood. Design features such as steps, convenience ledges, textured
surfaces and swim-outs are made at this time.
From this solid structure a fiberglass plug is made. A plug, in very simple
terms, is an extremely thick prototype of a swimming pool. From this plug,
a fiberglass mold is made. A mold, you might say, is a swimming pool turned
inside out. Hundreds of pools are perfectly replicated from this mold.
Layer 1:
The internal finish of white gel-coat or one of our 4 unique Gemstone® finishes for a smooth natural granite look is applied.
Layer 2:
Vinyl Ester Resin is combined with fiberglass to form the important corrosion barrier.
Layer 3
Using cutting edge technologies, Carbon
Fiber is strategically infused to structurally reinforce
specific areas of the pool.
Layer 4:
The final layer of every Yankee Pool is
specially designed resin and hand laid fiberglass. Honeycomb
supports are added and the closed beam construction is
the final touch to your Yankee Pool.
