The Porocell polystyrene block overflow channel EPS100 1010 x 170 x 270 mm is made of extruded polystyrene and is very lightweight. Despite that, it offers excellent strength, so you do not have to worry that this material will not withstand the constant pressure of water. Another advantage is that Porocell blocks can be cut precisely with a knife or saw and stacked to the required height and shape. No formwork is needed, not even thermal insulation.
Thanks to their shape, Porocell blocks make it easy to build a pool even by yourself, without the need for formwork or additional thermal insulation. The system consists of high-density extruded polystyrene blocks that can be cut with a knife or saw every 25 cm. Every pool structural element, such as the skimmer, nozzles, underwater lights, or counter-current system, can be installed easily and precisely. The easy processing of the material gives great freedom in choosing the pool shape and excellent adaptability to the selected dimensions.
The blocks are installed on a reinforced concrete slab and, after reinforcement with steel rebar, are filled with ready-mix concrete. Geotextile is attached to the foundation slab and along the perimeter walls. In the case of prefabricated replaceable liners, profiles are attached to the pool edges, allowing the liner to be easily fixed in place; alternatively, heavy-duty pool liners are applied by welding.
Up to 80% of heat escapes from the pool through the water surface. Nevertheless, it is highly recommended to thermally insulate the pool walls as well. By using Porocell blocks, the water in the pool heats up faster, so the swimming season can start earlier and last longer, even at the end of summer. Pools built from Porocell make use of solar radiation to warm the pool water. By using heat from a heat pump, you can enjoy the benefits of your pool significantly longer than with other types of pools.
Temperature fluctuations and frost also affect the pool perimeter walls, which can cause expansion and stress that may damage the pool liner or even the structure itself. The Porocell system withstands these influences and absorbs all stresses.
