WATERPROOF CEILINGS FOR SWIMMING POOLS
Any room with water has a higher humidity level than the rest of the room. In your bathroom or pool room, it’s easy to see the effects of this humidity, as the water is warm and vapour forms very quickly.
The higher the humidity level in the room, the higher the amount of condensation. The more water in the room, the higher the evaporation rate, which leads to moisture and condensation. When water condenses on the ceiling, it can penetrate through the paint and reach the existing plasterboard. When this happens, a layer of water can form between the plasterboard and the paint, which can eventually cause the paint to crack and fall from the ceiling. And where there is moisture, mould and mildew thrive! For this reason, certain steps need to be taken to keep indoor swimming areas safe, clean, and aesthetic.
First, ventilation and cleaning of the room are essential. Last but certainly not least, it is worth investing in a ceiling that will not be affected by water or high humidity. Depending on the height of your ceiling, bouncing and splashing can wet a normal ceiling. Stretch ceilings are ideal for swimming pool areas and rooms with high humidity, as they do not absorb water and do not require special maintenance. Unlike conventional ceilings, you won’t need to paint them regularly to keep them looking good. You also don’t have to worry about mould. Stretch ceilings also help to keep noise levels to a minimum. It’s no secret that swimming pool areas can be quite noisy, so if you want to prevent the noisy shouts of swimmers from disturbing people in adjacent rooms, a stretch ceiling is just what you need.
When choosing a ceiling for your pool area, it is important to choose a quality product that will stand the test of time. We offer our customers the highest quality stretch ceilings that are ideal for all rooms, including pool areas. The materials we use are non-toxic and, with the installation of lighting, your pool’s stretch ceiling will become the focal point of the room.
