Waterproofing
ATA has developed a range of products that not only meets Australian Standards AS/NZ 4858: 2004 but far exceeds the requirements of AS/NZ 4858: 2004
Waterproofing a swimming pools is relatively easy compared to waterproofing a lightweight external deck that is constructed of many different materials that are constantly moving due thermal movement, shock and vibration from the environment and loading. Swimming pools are generally rigid static structures that are not subject to excessive movement whether physical or thermal. Whereas external decks can be
constructed from lightweight flexible materials that are subject to harsh climatic conditions, physical and thermal movement.
In these areas more attention needs to be paid to the joints in the sheets and junctions between walls and floors as well as penetrations through the deck and at all times remembering that the deck will be finished in a ridged tile or stone. In these areas ATA recommends the use of Aqua-Band (rubberised jointing bandage) for all joints and corners and Aqua-Stick 1000 (peel & stick sheet membrane with exceptional
movement capabilities) for the main areas.
Due to the many types of construction methods and budgets not one system or product fits all, ATA has put together a range of products that work as a system but can all so be mixed and matched to suit the individual project requirements.
These products are proven to perform with many years of research and proven jobsite performance and history behind them.
