Mechanical Requirements - Fibreglass And Resin Shell Swimming Pools

The plumbing and mechanical systems for fibreglass pools are similar to both vinyl liner and concrete systems. Fibreglass pools are compatible with salt water generation systems as well as most forms of traditional chlorination and filtration equipment.



On average fibreglass pools have less intricate plumbing systems than most advanced concrete pool applications being more similar to economical and minimal vinyl liner mechanical systems. Pump sizes range from 1/2 HP to 1 1/2 HP and gas heating systems range from 150,000 to 250,000 BTU's.
