Tropical Island Pools - Construction

Tropical Island Pools is committed to providing the best constructed pool available with the most advanced manufacturing techniques, the finest materials, and the most stringent quality controls in the business.

Layer 1:
The internal finish of white gel-coat or one of our 4 unique Gemstone® finishes for a smooth natural granite look is applied.

Layer 2:
Vinyl Ester Resin is combined with fiberglass to form the important corrosion barrier.

Layer 3:
Using cutting edge technologies, Carbon Fiber is strategically infused to structurally reinforce specific areas of the pool.

Layer 4:
The final layer of every Tropical Island Fiberglass Pool is specially designed resin and hand laid fiberglass. Honey comb supports are added and the closed beam construction is the final touch to your fiberglass pool.

Tropical Island Pools' products are built using 21st Century technology and we are so confident in the quality of our pools, that they come complete with a lifetime structural warranty and a 7-year surface warranty. Tropical Island pools are 33% thicker than other fiberglass pools and monitored by a comprehensive quality assurance program.

Tropical Island Pools' Vinyl Ester Resin formula means that your pool will have unsurpassed blister protection. Your safety is a concern at Tropical Island Pools; our pools have textured steps and bottom and a convenience ledge in deep pools.

Tropical Island Pools - Layers of Pool Design

Tropical Island Pools follow a strict Quality Assurance Program, which means that every pool that is made must be inspected and evaluated as per our six-step quality control procedure. The result from each of the six-step findings is documented and kept on file.

Step 1:
Check the mold to ensure that it is clean, level, free of dust, and free from wax buildup.

Step 2:
Check the Gel Coat or Gemstone for the correct thickness using the mil gauge to ensure proper thickness.

Step 3:
Check the Vinyl Ester Resin thickness using the mil gauge to ensure proper thickness.

Step 4:
Determine the Resin layer thickness by the mil gauge and the weight of fiberglass stitch mat used.

Step 5:
Check the overall thickness of the pool with calipers, using cut outs from the pool skimmer, light and returns.

Step 6:
The final cosmetic (visual) inspection is complete when the pool is loaded on the transportation trailer.
