Outdoor Pool: Casement Ceilings
Pool, which is chronically in high levels of humidity, requires a special approach to the choice of floor coverings, walls and ceiling. If the floor and walls can be decorated with ceramic tiles or mosaics, which will easily undergo all the temperature changes, increased exposure of water and other features of the basin, in case of the ceiling the situation is more complicated. This is the reason why we decided to talk about pools and ceilings in this article.
Ceilings in the pool must meet specific requirements: maintain high humidity and possible changes in temperature, do not absorb moisture, easy to wash and maintain their long attractive appearance.
Among all types of decorations presented in the modern market of building materials, only one type of ceiling meets all necessary requirements and copes with all the complexities of the conditions of the pool: it is a stretch ceiling.
PVC shrink-wrap, which covers the ceiling, doesn’t not only meet all the requirements, but also copes with the inevitable consequences of permanent contact with the water as the appearance of mold, salt divorce spots and condensation.
We should note that all modern casement ceilings meet the requirements of hygiene and environmental safety, so they can be used in public places and places of recreation for children.
The design of a casement ceiling allows to hide in the ceiling all necessary servicing facilities: air ducts and air conditioning systems, electrical wiring, fire alarm, as well as fully built into the ceiling lighting system of waterproof lights. If necessary, the suspended ceiling will provide easy access to any of these systems. It can be removed, both in full and parts, and after repair or preventive maintenance of equipment, again set in place. Moreover, the appearance and characteristics of casement ceiling do not change.
Casement ceilings are the best solution today for swimming pools, as they allow mounting the canvas on the surface of any shape and size. In this case, such a decision would be economically more advantageous than the installation of any ceiling surface (due to ceiling heights).
Today there is a choice between glossy and matte film, each of which presents virtually any shade of color. If you prefer, you can put on an additional primary color image, or create an imitation of the night sky, space, flower meadows, etc.
The main characteristics of casement ceilings are their durability and ease of care. In this case, the ceiling surface do not fade in the sun, do not lose their appearance and do not lose their moisture and dust resistance during the entire life.
