At Plungie we’ve always known that a regular run of the mill pool has never been enough. That’s why our range of add-ons and extras are designed to take your Plungie to the next level. But why take your pool to the next level? Allow us to explain.

A pool, or better yet, a Plungie, is the ultimate addition to any home. It adds value to your property and value to your life. This is where your kids will play and where you will make countless memories together. 
That’s why you shouldn’t settle for anything less than market-leading innovation and design.

That’s where our latest line of exciting and innovative add-ons and modifications come into play. These are designed to make your life easier, saving you time, plus make owning a Plungie an even more enjoyable experience than it already is! Let’s dive in, shall we?

 

What to Expect

Auto Top-Up Valve

The latest innovation from Plungie is our automatic top up valve. Topping up your pool with water may seem like a mundane task, but it’s crucial for maintaining your pool’s health and usability. Water levels can drop and need topping up due to reasons such as evaporation and splashing.

Evaporation is particularly common Down Under, due to Australia’s climate. Sunny nearly all year round, this feature is paramount for any Aussies who own a Plungie. 

Keeping your pool full ensures that the filtration system runs smoothly, stops your water level dropping below your skimmer box and potentially burning out and causing damage to your pump.
Pool pumps are expensive to replace and here at Plungie we believe prevention is better than cure. The addition of a top up valve can save you lots of money in the long run. 

A proper water level also helps maintain the chemical balance in your pool. Balanced water prevents algae growth and keeps the water crystal clear. Imagine jumping into a perfectly clean pool every time – that’s the beauty of a well-maintained water level.

That’s where our new top up valve comes in. No more remembering to turn the hose on and off and no more accidental flooding when you forget!

Our new top up valve automatically shuts itself off when your Plungie’s reaches the right level. Therefore, no accidental overflow or flooding, saving work, water and money!

 

Accessory Holders

As every Plungie owner knows, any one of our four pre-cast pools is the perfect place to gather and mingle with friends and family.

Now you can enhance your social gatherings and pool parties and elevate your hosting game to another level with Plungie’s new accessory holders - the possibilities are endless! 

Easily slot in an umbrella to keep everyone cool and out of the sun when they are sitting back enjoying a nice cold beverage.

Speaking of beverages, one of the problems of pool ownership is where to put your drink when you’re sitting on the steps. 

That’s why the new Plungie accessory holder can accommodate a table so now you have somewhere to put your drinks.

Now you’re cool under your umbrella, but what about that drink in your hand? Is it cool?

Why not insert an Esky (or an icebox!) to your Plungie with the new accessory holder feature. That way both you and your drinks can stay nice and cool in the pool.

 

 

Top Edge ecoFinish

Every Plungie comes with an internal high performance thermo polymer coating — which is the fancy way of describing ecoFinish. 

As you might be aware, ecoFinish is a highly engineered form of powder coating that’s heat-blasted onto the internal shell of the pool, forming a completely sealed, flexible, waterproof membrane that’s both luxurious to the touch, and highly durable.

But did you know, now you can request a top edge EcoFinish as an additional modification when you order your Plungie.

This means we will continue the internal ecoFinish over the top edge of your pool. This circumvents the need for coping tiles and makes even more exciting design options available for you and your Plungie.

Sunbather Cover

The final exciting add-on that future Plungie owners can look forward to is our made to measure Sunbather pool covers.

Sunbather is one of Australia’s most trusted and awarded pool cover companies, because here at Plungie, quality recognises quality. 

Investing in a custom-made pool cover is one of the best decisions you can make for your pool. It offers numerous benefits that go beyond basic protection.

A made-to-measure pool cover helps retain heat, reducing the energy required to keep your pool warm. This is particularly beneficial during cooler months, lowering your heating costs and extending your swimming season.

In the hotter months, it also helps reduce the aforementioned evaporation and water loss, saving water which is good for your pool and the environment.

Say goodbye to those bulky, plastic retro pool covers of yesteryear, Sunbather’s Downunder Roller pool covers are both sleek and sturdy.

These covers come with a precision-finished aluminium lid that hides the robust stainless-steel roller underneath your deck, concrete or paved area, resulting in a discrete architectural finish, all while maximising your pool area. 

To facilitate this seamless look, here at Plungie we are offering the option of having the necessary bracket, that is required to have this cover installed below ground, fitted to your pool during installation. 

Finally, Sunbather pool covers provide an additional safety layer. A sturdy, well-fitted cover can help prevent accidents, giving you peace of mind when the pool is not in use.
