How do I heat the water?
Generally, not really. The pool should not get too hot to the touch in the sunshine, though we do suggest keeping the pool at least partially shaded. Put it under a tree or try one of our umbrellas for shade. You can use foam noodles you can place over the rim of your Tankkd Pool to add cushion and protection.
The double-wall system ensures that the stove never gets too hot on the outside and the fireplace is equipped with a safety system to prevent high external temperatures.
Stock tank pools do just fine in winter in most climates. There are a few options: You can heat your Tankkd Pool with one of our heater systems. You can keep the pump running to keep the water flowing, so the pool water doesn’t freeze. You will need to keep your pool water maintainted throughout that time. Or you can drain your pool and pump of water and keeping it covered until you’re ready to use it again (this option we do not recommend, because there is a higher risk of the tank rusting over time).
Electroplating is a method that uses electricity to cover an object with a layer of metal.
By means of electroplating, for example, an iron plate can be provided with a layer of zinc or nickel or chrome to make it more corrosion resistant and / or to make it shine more beautifully.
This is easy to update with zinc paint, which automatically has the same color and is commercially available. The zinc paint forms a quick-drying, self-healing, flexible layer that helps prevent rusting.
At the back of the tub, down near the bottom, you will find a small valve “screw” that you simply unscrew. It may be a little tight at first, so you may need to use a tool to loosen it. You can then open and close the valve with the end of a fork.
