Overflowing grids functions

Overflow gratings have several important functions in an overflowing pool, ensuring both safety and the proper functioning of the overflow system. Their main functions are described below:

- Water collection and channeling: overflow grates allow water overflowing the edge of the pool to be collected and channeled into the filtration system. This helps keep the water level constant and facilitates recirculation and cleaning of the pool water.

- Safety: They act as a non-slip surface for users walking around the pool edge, reducing the risk of slips and falls.

- Stability and Support: They provide a stable and safe surface around the pool edge, supporting the weight of users and distributing it evenly.

- Dirt Prevention: They help prevent leaves, debris and other contaminants from entering the filtration system by acting as a physical barrier, capturing these elements before they enter the overflow channel.

- Aesthetics: They improve the visual appearance of the pool, offering a clean and professional finish. The grates are available in different colors and styles to complement the pool design and surrounding environment.

- Temperature Control: They are designed with anti-heat materials that prevent them from overheating in the sun, protecting users from possible foot burns.

- Flexibility and adaptability: Some gratings are curvable, allowing them to be installed in pools with irregular or curved shapes, guaranteeing complete and effective coverage of the overflow channel.

Buying guide for choosing gratings for an overflowing pool

When selecting grates for an overflow pool, it is essential to consider the shape of the pool and the measurements of the overflow channel. Here are the key aspects:

Type of Grating

- Rigid Grates

These grates are composed of rigid plates or sections that are distributed along the edge of the pool. The bars of these gratings are usually parallel to the edge of the pool. They are suitable for pools with straight edges and provide a neat, uniform appearance.

- Flexible or curvable gratings

Flexible gratings consist of individual modules that can be connected together by cables. The bars of these gratings are usually arranged crosswise to the pool edge, which allows them to adapt to curved or irregular shapes of the pool edge. This type of grating is especially useful in pools with unconventional edges or curved designs.

- Grating Angles

Overflow pool grating angles allow the grating to fit around corners and angled edges of the pool, ensuring a precise and complete installation of the overflow system. They are available in various designs, heights and colors to meet different aesthetic and functional needs of overflow pools.

Gutter Height

The height of the overflow pool gutter determines the height of the grating, which can vary from 19 mm to 35 mm, with 22 mm being the most common measurement.

Grate Width

There are multiple options for the width, but it is essential to leave a margin of 5 mm to avoid problems with expansion.

Grating Color

Although the most common color is white, some manufacturers offer a variety of colors.

Maintenance of overflow gratings

To prolong the life of overflow gratings and ensure optimal performance of your pool, it is crucial to implement a regular maintenance plan. This not only ensures the safety of users, but also preserves the aesthetics and functionality of the entire overflow system. Below are the essential steps you should follow to properly care for overflow grates:

- Regularly clean the grates to remove accumulated debris.

- Pick up floating debris to keep the pool surface clean.

- Inspect the grates periodically for damage or wear.

- Verify that connections between modules are properly secured.

- Make sure the filtration system is operating optimally.

- Maintain water chemistry levels within recommended parameters for optimum water quality.
