Everything you need to know about swimming pool ceilings
An indoor pool requires the right type of ceiling – not just for looks but for practical reasons too.
A stretch ceiling ticks all the boxes when it comes to coping with the combo of pool water and cleaning chemicals, while also offering a stunning look and feel.

THEY ARE PRACTICAL
Because swimming pool ceilings are constructed from PVC films, they are resistant to water and protect other rooms in the facility from splashes and leakage. In the event of a leak above a stretch ceiling, the material can expand to accommodate water. After the leak has been repaired and the water has been drained, it will return to its previous size.
YOU CAN CUSTOMISE THEM
With a stretch-ceiling swimming pool, it’s much easier to carry out a design change than with a conventional ceiling. This keeps the environment engaging for swimmers – especially for those leisurely back-strokers whose eyes are fixed firmly on your ceiling creation! The design opportunities are endless – you can print whatever you fancy onto a swimming pool stretch ceiling, adding a real “wow” factor to a leisure facility or hotel.
Popular choices include nightscapes, clouds, and blue sky, all of which evoke a sense of calm. But don’t feel constrained to those options – experiment and have some fun with it.
THEY ARE EASY TO MAINTAIN
Swimming pool stretch ceilings are dependable and durable. To back that up, the majority of manufacturers offer a 10-year warranty for total peace of mind. They don’t experience corrosion or dampness because the material discourages the accumulation of condensation, unlike traditional pool ceilings. They are also super-easy to clean and do not react to the chemicals used to keep the pool water clean.
THEY CAN REDUCE ENERGY COSTS
The air gap between the original ceiling and the stretch ceiling has the added bonus of offering extra insulation, potentially reducing energy bills. This extra insulation also has added acoustic benefits, absorbing noise from what can be a traditionally noisy, echoey environment. So it could save you from having to shell out on extra soundproofing too.
