Steel vs. Polymer/Polymer vs. Steel
The choice of steel and polymer is really your preference.
There are no advantages to one over the other. Steel has
been marketed against by saying that it rusts, but
realistically the galvanization process stops rust. Polymer
has been marketed against by saying that it cracks - it will
only crack if the wrong backfill is used. Homeowners in the
North typically use Steel, and the Homeowners in the South
typically use the Polymer wall. Polymer will stand up
equally well to freezing temperatures, but steel is
typically what people are familiar with in those areas.
Why
choose a Polymer wall?
Made from non-corrosive structural polymer, the panels are
strong and stable, non-biodegradable polymer foams that
greatly increase the longevity of the pool, cellular
structure that acts as a thermal screen, holding heat in the
pool and blocking the penetrating cold from surrounding
soils.
 Why choose a Steel wall?
Our industry-proven steel wall pools continue to set the
standard. Each panel is constructed using the highest
quality 14-gauge steel with galvanized coating.
Self-piercing, auto-locking, double zinc plated and carbon
steel rivets representing the very latest in fabrication
methods that securely rigidize and stabilize each panel,
without destroying the integrity of the galvanized coating.
And, of course, the ability to completely install a swimming
pool, backfill and complete the deck prior to installing the
liner and filling the pool.

Should I use a 42” or 48” wall?
The height of 42" wall gives 3' water depth in the shallow
end of the pool. The 48" high panels, allowing for 6" more
water depth on the shallow end of the pool (3'6" water
depth); extra depth ideal for flat bottom pool designs, and
increases the comfort level of adults using the shallow end
of the hopper design pools.
