Pool shell, equipment and finish references side by side
The eight official family references this draft records, with type, stated construction, any standard the brand names, and how each is sold.
What is not established
- Each cell records a manufacturer statement, not a measured, inspected or tested result.
- An empty cell means the page did not state it, not that the property is absent.
- A standard or certification named by a brand was not looked up in an issuing body's directory for this draft.
- Exact model, size, equipment package, engineering, price, lead time, stock, local availability, builder authorization and project suitability are unknown for every row.
- Nothing in the table addresses the safety features chapter 515 requires, the barrier specification, the federal drain-cover standard, flood-zone placement, or any permit, licence or inspection step.
- The table is not a ranking, a recommendation or a suitability finding for any site.

An empty cell in the standard column means the page named none, which is the common case: five of these eight rows state no standard or certification at all. Where one is stated it is the brand's own claim and was not looked up in an issuing body's directory. No row carries a price, a lead time or a local availability fact, because no manufacturer page in this collection publishes one.
Each cell is an original paraphrase of the manufacturer page cited below, as recorded in the tracked channel research. No manufacturer table, image, rating record or marketing passage is reproduced.
