The Wiesbaden systems include the so called Wiesbaden low-level
system, nowadays rarely used or used just for specific types of pool, and the Wiesbaden high-level
system that is still very used and popular.
Even for these pool borders Padana Piscine is in the position of proposing a double solution: "traditional" on one side and more "technical and exclusive" on the other one.
Wiesbaden pool border – low level
The traditional solution consists of the classic monolithic scum channel (item 6700) that for this kind of pool border does not need any grating support. It is however important to point out that the scum channel proposed by Padana Piscine is specially engraved to host normal tiles for completing wall cladding without generating shading problems. .
Wiesbaden pool border – high level
The fittings dedicated to this type of border afford basically the same advantages of the concept of the low-level system. In this case the monolithic scum channel, being located on the pool deck, must be covered with a grating to prevent accidents. The traditional scum channel is therefore provided with the necessary grating support (item 6600). .
Wiesbaden pool border – low level
Thanks to the special piece of the Trim-Box system it is possible to have a scum channel which is completely independent of the pool edge. This innovative concept allows the scum channel to have any shape and dimension thus enabling the designer to reduce the number of water outlets and the related costs.
The Trim-Box piece dedicated to this type of border (item 6800) has a sloping side with the aim of reducing the noise of falling water and is engraved to host wall tiles for the pool tank. Both the bottom of the scum channel and its back side can then be tiled using ordinary tiles. This simplifies the positioning of the water outlets which can have any section. .
Wiesbaden pool border – high level
The Trim-Box piece (item 6800), as it already incorporates the grating support, remains unchanged.
Taking into consideration the present trend aimed at treating as much water as possible through overflow, it is important to point out that the new concept of independent scum channel brings again to the foreground this type of pool border even for large public pools. The low draining capacity of the monolithic scum channels and the high costs due to the increase in the number of water outlets have so far limited the use of this type of border.
It is important to notice that a Wiesbaden high-level border allows remarkable savings of space on the pool deck and it is therefore particularly suitable for indoor pools where space is often a critical factor.
