Netting
Available in Black, Blue or Tan the pool netting is manufactured from durable four-millimeter high-density, polyethylene fiber composed of linear macromolecules saturated with non-substituted aliphatic hydrocarbons. This material contains continuous multifilament and resists abrasion, moths, and bacteria.
ASTM Certification
Remember all pool safety covers are supplementary pool safety aids and not a substitute for the undivided and constant supervision of an adult. Pool covers can never replace adult supervision nor can they be a guarantee against drowning or other accidents. Always replace your cover after swimming. Experts agree that multiple layers of protection offer the best protection against drowning and near drowning incidents. The most at risk are children under 5 years of age so always be extra vigilant with children in this age group.
Katchakid Central Tension System
Our Katchakid net has a built in Central Tension System (CTS) that can be adjusted from tight to very tight and is designed in such a way that it cannot be removed by most children under the age of 12 years. The CTS is a multifaceted system that uses a series of pulley's set in a circular fashion, which open and close to control the tension of the net. The correct configuration and size of the CTS together among a necessary amount of pulleys determine a pool net's efficiency. The Katchakid uses an average of 12 to 16 pulleys per net.
Anchor Options
The Katchakid is attached to the pool surround by small stainless steel fasteners to toe friendly anchors, spaced 10 inches away from the waters edge at +/- 30 inch intervals.
There are 3 anchor fitting options available;
Adjustable Surface Mounted EZ-Plates available in Cream, Gray or Terracotta (red/orange).
Counter sunk durable nylon anchors available in Cream, Gray or Terracotta (red/orange).
Special order counter sunk high quality brass anchors for an exclusive look.
Nylon Anchors
Available in Cream, Gray and Terracotta. Our Nylon anchors are flush with the pool deck and the 3 color options blend in with most pool decks.
Brass Anchors
At the top of the Katchakid anchor range is our high-quality brass anchor. Over time, or when acid washed, our deck-flush brass anchor pairs well with materials such as flagstone, concrete, and pebble. With the brass anchors patina established, it becomes barely perceptible in the pool deck.
