Tricoflex Spirabel® Balnéo anti-termite system: a long-lasting solution for underground swimming pool systems

Thanks to its expertise, the company offers reliable, durable solutions that comply with current standards.

The French manufacturer is expanding its range dedicated to swimming pool and balneotherapy installations with the SPIRABEL® BALNÉO ANTI-TERMITES, a spiral PVC flexible pipe designed for buried networks.

It stands out thanks to its anti-termite formulation, guaranteed for 12 years, integrated into the PVC itself – a major differentiating advantage in the market. In a sector where replacing a buried pipe becomes difficult and even expensive, reliability and durability are crucial criteria for professionals.

Available in 25 and 50 m coils, SPIRABEL® BALNÉO ANTI-TERMITES is suitable for both new construction and renovation projects.

A reinforced spiral design ensures strength and stability

With a 12-year termite resistance guarantee and compliance with ISO 3994, the SPIRABEL® BALNÉO ANTI-TERMITE is a flexible hose specifically developed for high-flow suction and discharge applications in private or public swimming pools and spas. Designed for underground installation, it consists of a reinforced spiral structure incorporating a rigid, shock-resistant PVC core embedded in a flexible PVC core.

This design provides excellent crush resistance, essential during burial and backfilling phases, where the pipe is subjected to significant mechanical stresses. This is a crucial factor for underground networks intended to remain in place permanently. Furthermore, it offers exceptional dimensional stability to limit the risk of deformation over time, even under operating conditions such as pressures up to 6 bar and temperatures ranging from -15°C to +60°C, ensuring the longevity and reliability of the underground network.

Anti-termite technology embedded throughout the PVC for long-lasting protection

Thanks to its formulation without compounds harmful to humankind, the pipe has enhanced chemical resistance to water treatments, such as chlorine or salt electrolysis, allowing it to maintain its performance over time and limit the phenomena of hardening, cracking and premature aging of the walls.

The SPIRABEL® BALNÉO ANTI-TERMITE features smooth inner and outer walls to promote water flow, reduce the risk of deposit buildup, and simplify on-site installation. Its design ensures perfect compatibility with existing solvent weld pool fittings, thanks to continuous and consistent contact during insertion, guaranteeing a reliable watertight seal.
