Things to Consider When Planning Your Pool
Decide How You Will Use The PoolWill it be for recreation, exercise, entertaining or some combination of all of these? If you have a general idea of your intended use of the pool, it can help you work through the design process.
Keep Maintenance in MindDifferent types of pools require different levels of mainte-nance. Some, like vinyl liner pools, are relatively simple to maintain. It can take just a few minutes a week to check water and chemical levels.
Know Your BackyardIf you live on the side of a cliff with a steep grade and little or no access for construction vehicles, then you may run into some problems! If you have a tiny backyard but want an Olympic-sized pool, it may not be possible. But for the most part, pool builders are very talented and creative when it comes to designing pools to fit in tight or awkward spaces.
Discuss Dollars and SenseSwimming pools can be expensive up front, but the invest-ment is worth it in the end and the enhanced backyard en-vironment can add to the value of your home. Remember that you can often obtain financing and stretch your pay-ments out over a longer term – often a monthly pool pay-ment can be lower than a monthly car payment! Talk with your
builder about what financing options are available. Also, maybe you don’t have the funds to do a huge water feature or lighting system right now. But if you think you might want it in the future, tell your builder. It’s much easier to plan for future plumbing and electrical needs up front and work them into the design than to try and go backwards later on.
We are the only packaged pool manufacturer to receive ICC-ES Certification of its products. What is ICC-ES? International Code Council Evaluation Service (ICC-ES) ensures that build-ing products meet code requirements.

The Steel Rugged Construction
Superior Strength of SteelFrom skyscrapers to bridges, engineers turn to steel when maximum strength is called for.
Unique Wall Brace SystemThe double “L” design makes our Kafko panels the stron-gest in the industry. The galvanized steel braces are press locked in place, not only to the back of each wall but also on the top and bottom, ensuring that each panel retains its original pre-formed shape.
Adjustable “A” FrameKafko’s engineers have designed a unique heavy-duty adjustable “A” frame that ensures perfect alignment. This emphasis on strength assures that you receive a structurally sound Kafko pool.
Optional Deck Support SystemThe Kafko single, double “A” or box deck support systems were engineered to support the deck around the pool. This system also adds additional rigidity to the pool walls.
The Tru-Radius steel panels which are used on our curved wall pools are designed to ensure that every Kafko pool is constructed to exacting specifications.
All panels come with a full 5" wall brace designed to make the Kafko straight steel panel the stron-gest design in the industry.
Rugged Construction
and Top Quality MaterialsKafko’s newest technologies go into the construction of all of our new pool designs. Our registered Press-Lock® systems are a large part of why Kafko is happy to offer a Lifetime, One-Time Transferable warranty on every pool we build.
Manufacturing and EngineeringOur quality industry proven Tru-Radius steel wall, vinyl liner swimming pools, available in over 200 shapes and sizes, have set the standard in the swimming pool industry. We at Kafko are extremely proud of our innovative method of manufactur-ing and advanced engineering capabilities. Press-Lock systems represent our industry’s state of the art method of manufac-turing, replacing the old welded systems.
The patented Press-Lock fastening systems do not destroy the integrity of the galvanized coating
Engineered Pool Wall SystemPanels are made from 14 gauge steel with G235 (Z720) galvanized coating. Both straight and curved wall panels have strategically located holes at both ends ensuring positive and accurate alignments. The ends of each panel are made with a recessed end, making for a seamless panel connection.
Straight panels are formed using the Kafko TriBend method, which provides much more strength than the industry standard double bend panel.

Here’s what your neighbors are saying about their new Ultra-Seam® liner.
“Ultra-Seam is a wonderful thing! Who wants to look at the white seam at the bottom? Not Me!”
Ken, Pool Owner
“We opened our pool this spring only to find our old liner didn’t survive the winter. We had many choices, but decided on a liner from Latham Pool Products due to their exclusive Ultra-Seam technol-ogy. We couldn’t be anymore impressed. With our old liner, you could see every unsightly seam. The Ultra-Seam makes the seams virtually invisible and makes our brand new liner that much more impressive. We would recommend a liner from Latham Pool Products to anyone in the market for a new liner.”
Andrew and Kim, Pool Owners
“I am a new pool owner! One of my big-gest worries was when I used to go over to my friends and see the seams. When I heard about this new Ultra-Seam tech-nology I was amazed. This was what sold me and I have not regretted it.”
Joe, Pool Owner

IMPORTANT: A number of very important items that are essential for the safe use of your pool may not be visible in many of the photo-graphs, either because of perspective or camera angle, or because they were removed for photo-graphic purposes. These items include, but are not limited to:1. Safety ropes, which should remain in place at
all time;2. “No Diving” signs, which are provided and
should be installed in accordance with instruc-tions included on the coping or liner, where they are clearly visible;
3. An area sign is provided and must be perma-nently and conspicuously affixed in the pool area where all users can see it;
4. Necessary means of exit and entry into the pool;5. Fencing with a self-latching gate, and other
barriers that can assist in preventing unsuper-vised access to the pool by children;
6. Approved drain covers and other devices to protect against suction entrapment;
7. Minimum required inlets and returns to en-sure proper water circulation;
8. Appropriate inpool lighting if the pool will be used after dark.
All of these devices should be installed in accor-dance with manufacturer’s instructions, ANSI/NSPI or ANSI/APSP/ICC standards, as well as state and local statutes and codes.Diving boards and slides require minimum depths and distances and must only be installed and used in strict compliance with the equipment manufacturer’s specifications and ANSI/NSPI or ANSI/APSP/ICC standards. If the pool is labeled by us as NON-DIVING, then diving equipment may not be installed and any such equipment must be removed before the pool is used.Smart pool owners always think safety first. They take specific steps to ensure that their family, friends and guests are knowledgeable about the safe and sensible use of their pool. They also:• ensure that their pool is never used unless
there is adequate supervision;• ensure that their pool is kept in good repair
and is not used when there is a missing or broken drain cover or other component;
• ensure that ALL CHILDREN using their pool are supervised constantly;
• that anyone under the influence of alcohol, drugs or stimulants that would impair their abilities or judgement does not use the pool;
• ensure that their pool is protected by appro-priate barriers to unsupervised entry including fencing with self latching gates, covers, alarms, etc.

We must insist that you read each item carefully and follow its instructions. These are:• Pool Owners Safety Handbook• APSP “Sensible Way” Book • Vinyl Swimming Pool Liner–Warranty • “ Children Aren’t Waterproof” Book• “ No Diving” Labels• Area SignMake sure your builder supplies you with all of the safety information that accompanies your pool and installs the enclosed warning stickers and area sign where they can be clearly visible to all who use the pool.NOTICE: The manufacturer stands behind every product they produced pursuant to those representations which are stated in the written warranties.

decIde how you wILL use your pooL
• Choose the right pool to fit your lifestyle and family needs.
Will it be for recreation, exercise, entertaining or some combination of all of these? If you have a general idea of your intended use of the pool, it can help you work through the design process.
keep your properTy sIze aNd FuTure maINTeNaNce IN mINd• Consider all aspects for creating your dream backyard.
Pool builders are very talented and creative when it comes to designing pools to fit in tight or awkward spaces. Your builder can help you with a basic understanding of the build and installation process.
Different types of pools require different levels of maintenance. Vinyl liner pools are relatively simple to maintain. It can take just a few minutes a week to check water and chemical levels.
dIscuss doLLars aNd seNse• Bring your initial thoughts to your dealer who will truly make your backyard “the place to be” for
friends and family!
Your enhanced backyard environment can add to the value of your home. Let your pool builder know all of your dreams for your pool. Maybe you would like to do a water feature or lighting system but aren’t prepared to have them installed initially. Let your builder know during the planning, if you think you might want it in the future, because it’s much more efficient to plan for plumbing and electrical needs upfront and work them into the design, than to go backwards later on.

Here’s what your neighbors are saying about their new Ultra-seam® liner.“We’ve been pool owners for over twenty years and we were amazed that we couldn’t see the seams! Our grand- children came over and actually thought we got a brand new pool. Even after walking out to the pool all summer I still can’t get over the fact of how perfect the liner fits and flawless it looks. Why would anyone want to go back to the old way, it makes no sense.”
Gail Guertin, Pool Owner
“I’ve had other liners and you could always see the seams, especially when there was dirt in the pool. I’m so thrilled with the Ultra-Seam® liner. We’ve had multiple people remark how awesome it looks. You can’t see the seams at all, even when there’s dirt in the pool. In fact, you don’t see the dirt at all. It looks fantastic, especially at night when you put the lights on. I’m impressed!”
Tim Moseman, Pool Owner
“Oh my gosh you can’t even see the lines, how did they do that? It’s amaz-ing the difference. Our old liner had so many lines across the floor and now they are virtually invisible.”

“ Our working experience with our dealer was very posi-tive. Not only did we have a new pool put in, but an old one taken out. They replaced our old rectangle with a new kidney and a spillover spa. Our dealer handled the project from start to finish…we would highly recommend them to anyone, their workmanship was extremely professional.”
Parker and Sharon Johnson, Pool Owners
“ While considering getting a pool, our friends and family recommended our dealer! After meeting with him, we felt comfortable, knowing that this was definitely the right choice! From the start he guided and helped us make the right decisions to get our pool we always dreamed of. During the building process, the staff became family. It was an exciting process for our family to watch the progress each day with the help of our dealer, being very thorough in explaining each and every detail. Much respect was given to our property and neighbors. After having the pool for a year, we are still able to call our dealer with any questions and concerns. They are truly a great local company that stands behind their work 100%.”

a number of very important items that are essential for the safe use of your pool may not be visible in many of the photographs, either because of perspective or camera angle, or because they were removed for pho-tographic purposes.
these devices include, but are not limited to:• safety ropes, which should remain in place at all times;• “ No Diving” signs which are provided with all Latham Pools and which
should be installed in accordance with latham Pools instructions, on the coping or liner, where they can be clearly visible;
• an area sign which is provided with all Latham Pools and must be permanently and conspicuously affixed in the pool area where all users can see it;
• necessary means of exit and entry into the pool;
• fencing with a self-latching gate, and other barriers that can assist par-ents in preventing unsupervised access to the pool by children;
• approved drain covers and other devices to protect against suction entrapment;
• minimum required inlets and returns to ensure proper water circulation; and
• appropriate in-pool lighting if the pool will be used after dark.
all of these devices should be installed in accor-dance with latham Pools instructions, ansi/nsPi or ansi/aPsP or ansi/aPsP/icc standards, as well as state and local statutes and codes.
Diving boards and slides require minimum depths and distances and must only be installed and used in strict compliance with the equipment manufacturer’s specifi-cations and ansi/nsPi or ansi/aPsP or ansi/aPsP/icc standards. if the pool is labeled by us as nOn-DIVING, then diving equipment may not be installed and any such equipment must be removed before the pool is used. smart pool owners always think safety first. they take specific steps to ensure that their fam-ily, friends and guests are knowledgeable about the safe and sensible use of their pool.
they also: • ensure that their pool is never used unless there
is adequate supervision; • ensure that their pool is kept in good repair and
is not used when there is a missing or broken drain cover or other component;
• ensure that ALL CHILDREN using their pool are supervised constantly;
• ensure that anyone under the influence of alcohol, drugs or stimulants that would impair their abilities or judgement does not use the pool;
• ensure that their pool is protected by appropriate barriers to unsupervised entry including fencing with self latching gates, covers, alarms, etc.
to assist you, a number of very important items of safety literature are included with each pool liner and also available upon request. We must insist that you read each item carefully and follow its instructions. these are: • Pool Owners Safety Handbook • APSP “Sensible Way” Book • Vinyl Swimming Pool Liner – Warranty • “Children Aren’t Waterproof” Book • “No Diving” Labels • Area Sign
Make sure your builder supplies you with all of the safety information that accompanies your pool and installs the enclosed warning stickers and area signs where they can be clearly visible to all who use the pool.
