SeraPool Olympic Porcelain Top Overflow Channel 1 is a glazed porcelain top-overflow (deck-level) gutter channel, set in the deck behind the overflow edge. Porcelain channels replace plastic or stainless-steel gutters with a fully tiled, easy-to-clean overflow that matches the pool finish. It is part of the SeraPool Olympic™ Commercial & Competition Pool Collection, a complete porcelain system of edge tiles, deck tiles, depth markers, pool tile, mosaics, overflow channels and gutter grates for commercial and competition pools.
Each run is built from straight pieces, pieces with an outlet for the drain connection, inside and outside corners and half pieces to close the run. Confirm channel type, outlet spacing and corner conditions against your mechanical drawings before ordering.
