Next Generation Technology:
Submersible Spiralift®

Beneath an AKVO movable pool floor is a powerful mechanical technology: the Spiralift®. Originally designed for orchestra lifts in the 70s, this extremely compact actuator has since been used in a wide variety of targeted applications, resulting in over 30,000 units in operation throughout the world.

Now adapted for aquatic environments, it allows the height of a pool floor to be adjusted on demand, in just minutes and at the touch of a button.The Spiralift® technology has dramatically expanded the flexibility of pool conversion systems through enhanced load capacity compared to other technologies, while minimizing footprint and putting an end to routine levelling maintenance operations.

How does the Spiralift®work?

The Spiralift® is a compact lifting actuator made of two stainless steel bands which form a rigid column capable of supporting substantial loads. The newest IL150 Spiralift®model, built with 316L Stainless Steel, was conceived to be fully submersible specifically for Akvo’s movable pool floors.
