• Poly-Lam coated, baked-enamel, 52" or 54" high pool wall. Copper bearing steel pool wall provides flexibility and vertical strength
• Steel top rails are made from 20 gauge steel and are sturdier than the competition – increasing the strength and lifetime performance of the pool

• Steel verticals are up to 50% heavier than the competitors. This ensures maximum stability

• Limited Lifetime Warranty

Build Smart, Enjoy with Confidence

Select HII and Embassy pools, like the Rio Grande, are engineered for partial burial—up to 24 inches—for a sleek, ground-level look. To ensure long-lasting performance and safety, a proper water diversion system must be in place. This means diverting all surface and ground water away from your pool at all times.

Why is this important? Because protecting your pool from excess water and unstable soil helps maintain its structure and ensures your investment is safe for years to come.

Important Notes:

• Burial beyond 24” will void your warranty.

• Pool damage caused by improper installation, poor drainage, or unstable backfill soil is not covered under warranty.

• If you're unsure about soil conditions or drainage, we strongly recommend keeping your pool above ground or consulting a professional.

Your pool. Your peace of mind. Install it right, and dive into worry-free fun!
