Pool Services with SANI-TRED: Transforming and Protecting Your Pool

A swimming pool is more than just a place to cool off in the summer; it’s a central feature of your home’s outdoor living space, a place for relaxation, exercise, and entertainment. However, maintaining a pool in top condition can be challenging, especially when dealing with leaks, cracks, or surface degradation. This is where SANI-TRED comes into play, offering comprehensive pool services. These solution are for pool restoration, repair, and waterproofing that ensures your pool remains beautiful, functional, and safe for years to come.

The Importance of Pool Maintenance and Repair

Over time, swimming pools can develop various issues that not only affect their appearance but also their functionality and safety. Common problems include:

  • Cracks and Leaks: These are often caused by ground movement, freeze-thaw cycles, or simple wear and tear. Even minor cracks can lead to significant water loss, which increases your water bills and can lead to structural damage.
  • Surface Degradation: The constant exposure to water, chemicals, and sunlight can cause pool surfaces to degrade, leading to rough patches, discoloration, and the eventual breakdown of the pool's surface.
  • Poor Waterproofing: Inadequate waterproofing can result in water seeping into the pool’s structure, causing damage that can be expensive and time-consuming to repair.

Addressing these issues promptly is essential to maintaining the integrity of your pool. This is where SANI-TRED’s pool services come into play, offering advanced products and solutions designed to restore and protect your pool.

SANI-TRED: A Leader in Pool Restoration and Waterproofing

SANI-TRED has built a reputation as a leading provider of waterproofing and surface restoration products for various applications, including swimming pools. The SANI-TRED system is unique in that it offers a permanent solution to common pool problems, using a range of products that work together to seal, protect, and beautify your pool.

Key Components of the SANI-TRED System

The SANI-TRED system for pools includes three main products, each designed to address specific issues and provide a comprehensive waterproofing and restoration solution:

  1. PermaFlex™: This is the cornerstone of the SANI-TRED system. PermaFlex™ is a liquid rubber coating that penetrates deeply into the pores of concrete, fiberglass, and other pool surfaces. It creates a flexible, waterproof barrier that prevents water from seeping through cracks and other imperfections. PermaFlex™ is known for its durability and long-lasting protection.
  2. LRB (Liquid Rubber Base): LRB is used to repair and seal cracks, joints, and other problem areas in the pool. It is a thick, viscous liquid that cures to form a tough, rubbery finish, effectively sealing even the most stubborn leaks. LRB is often used in conjunction with TAV for more precise application.
  3. TAV (Thickening Activator): TAV is mixed with LRB to create a thicker consistency, making it easier to apply in vertical or overhead areas, such as pool walls or around fittings. This combination ensures that all areas of the pool are thoroughly sealed and protected.

How the SANI-TRED System Works

The SANI-TRED system is designed to be both effective and easy to apply, whether you’re a professional contractor or a DIY homeowner. Here’s how the process typically works:

  1. Surface Preparation: Before applying SANI-TRED products, it’s essential to prepare the pool surface. This involves thoroughly cleaning the pool to remove dirt, algae, oils, and any existing coatings or sealants. A clean, dry surface ensures maximum adhesion and effectiveness of the SANI-TRED system.
  2. Crack and Joint Repair: Once the surface is prepared, the next step is to address any cracks, joints, or seams in the pool. These areas are particularly vulnerable to water intrusion, so it’s crucial to seal them effectively. LRB, often mixed with TAV, is applied to these areas to fill and seal them completely.
  3. Application of PermaFlex™: After repairing cracks and joints, PermaFlex™ is applied to the entire pool surface. This can be done using a roller, brush, or sprayer, depending on the size and shape of the pool. PermaFlex™ penetrates the surface, creating a flexible, waterproof membrane that adheres permanently to the pool.
  4. Curing: Once applied, the SANI-TRED products need time to cure. Curing allows the coatings to fully adhere to the surface and develop their waterproofing properties. Depending on environmental conditions, curing can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days.
  5. Final Inspection and Touch-Ups: After curing, the pool should be inspected to ensure complete coverage and that no areas were missed. Any missed spots can be touched up with additional PermaFlex™ to ensure comprehensive protection.
