A screened aluminum pool enclosure lets you use your pool more of the year, with fewer bugs and less debris to deal with. Most pool enclosure frames are made of aluminum, and for good reason. Aluminum frames are durable, need little maintenance, and are light compared to other frame materials.
Technical Advantages of Aluminum
Aluminum is ideal for pool enclosure installation because it is one-third as dense as steel. It enjoys widespread applications in different areas partly because it provides an exceptional combination of mechanical properties. It boasts superior malleability, corrosion resistance, high strength, easy machining, and low weight in addition to good thermal and electrical conductivity.
Aluminum produces a protective oxide coating making it highly corrosion resistant. These natural properties are further enhanced by the application of paint and other preservation substances. Pool enclosure installation is an application that requires protection and conservation. Powder coating applied onto aluminum frames gives it a smooth finish surface. This makes it easy to clean and eliminates rough surfaces, which promote dirt buildup.
Aluminum frames combine well with other materials used for screen room installation. Together, they hold up well to Florida’s humidity, heat, and pool chemicals. Stainless steel fasteners usually secure the aluminum superstructure. Sliding glass doors with screens help maintain views of the surrounding area.
Pool owners can rely on the tested qualities of aluminum to enjoy a pool enclosure that is both aesthetically pleasing and durable. The metal works well as a reflector of visible light and radiated heat. It is also great for the environment, owing to its recyclability.
Every aluminum pool enclosure we build in Tampa Bay is engineered for its site and built to current Florida Building Code requirements.
