FAQ
Cantar's new removable
Protect-A-PoolŪ fencing system is the easiest way to make your pool safe from unwanted
intrusion of children, pets or stray animals. While easy to install and
remove, our patent pending pole design can withstand over 200 lbs. of pressure - stronger
than the competition! Swimming pool safety fencing is a popular method of keeping
pools safe. It is removable when needed, and for as long as needed. And when in use, the
Protect-A-Pool Inground Removable Safety Fence provides an extremely strong and sturdy
pool barrier to provide the best in pool safety.
Can I install the
Cantar Removable Protect-A-Pool fencing system?
Absolutely. Many manufacturers have needlessly
made the fence installation process complicated and requiring a pick-up truck full of
unusual tools. But not Cantar! The Protect-A-Pool fence is the first safety fence
installed with a Rotary Hammer Drill! No expensive, confusing and very cumbersome Core
Drill. The average installation of 12 panels is completed in as little as 4 hours, by
someone just like you! Full instructions are included with every order. Our fence tech
experts are here to help as well. Should you have questions on the installation, please
call our toll-free hotline at 877-POOLCTR.
How is the Pool
Fence Removable?
Quickly and Easily. Simply squeeze the poles
together gently at the top, and unlatch the stainless steel post latch. Pull the
Super-Strong Poly-Alum fence pole straight up and out of the nylon sleeve. Each pole can
be removed in a matter of seconds. The average 12 panel pool fence can be completely
removed, by one person, in just 5 - 10 minutes. For longer term storage, use the nylon
sleeve caps to keep debris from the sleeve, and finish the look. Some customers use a
mesh
pool cover in the winter, and the Cantar Pool Safety Fence during the pool season. Other
customers have used their pool safety fence only until their children were older (and
wiser?).
Can I store the
swimming pool fence, or not use it for some time?
For longer term storage, use the nylon sleeve
caps to keep debris from the sleeve, and finish the look. The sections roll up and stack
neatly in a small location. The safety fence is quickly removable for pool parties or
activities where temporary removal is desired.
Is the Pool Fence
removable by Children?
No. Most children under ten years old do not have the height or the
hand size to squeeze the poles and simultaneously remove the latch.
The fence poles cannot be lifted up out of their nylon sleeves
without first being unlatched at the top. The fence can also not be
climbed, (keep tables, chairs or like items away from the fence,
which may be used as an aid in getting over the fence).
Does the Cantar
Removable Protect A Pool safety fence meet our pool fencing codes?
Well, we can't account for the pool inspector's
mood, but...our fence meets most county and city fence ordinances, requiring a
non-climbable fence of 4 (or 5 ) feet in height, with (available) a Self-Closing,
Self-latching Gate, utilizing the Magna-Latch pull top gate latch. Consult your local
ordinance for pool fence interface to buildings, hillsides, hedges or other natural
barriers.
How durable is the
Cantar Removable Protect-A-Pool safety pool fence?
The Cantar Mesh is virtually indestructible. It
will Never Rot, Mildew, Fade, Peel or deteriorate. Ever! The carbonized strands of
material form a fused web of interlocked polypropylene. Completely impervious to any
weather you can throw at it.
What kind of decking
do I need to install the Cantar Pool Safety Fence?
You need a solid deck of at least 2
inches in
thickness. It can be pressure treated wood or concrete. Interlocking pavers can also be
used. If you need to cross an area of just grass, we recommend using a post hole digger to
create a 12" x 4" hole that you can fill with bag mix concrete. You can set the
sleeve into the concrete while it is still wet, and avoid drilling some holes.
