The S-Series Canvas takes everything you love about Ecopool's S-Series and gives you a blank canvas on the outside. Install it partial inground or fully onground, then wrap the exterior in natural stone, stucco, brick, timber, tile—or anything that matches your home. The result is a pool that doesn't just sit in your backyard. It belongs there.
The Canvas is built on the same high-strength steel platform as every other S-Series pool — but instead of Architectural panels, it's designed to be clad in the material of your choice. Stone veneer for a natural hillside look. Smooth stucco to match a Mediterranean villa. Reclaimed brick for industrial warmth. Or any combination you can imagine. The structure handles the engineering. You handle the aesthetic.
Our Canvas Pools can sit partially above grade, giving you visible exterior walls that become the design surface. Surround it with stacked stone to look like it grew from the hillside. Clad it in smooth render to match your modern home. Face it with weathered brick for heritage charm. The steel structure behind the cladding handles every structural load—your chosen material is purely aesthetic, giving you total freedom without compromise.
Most pools look like pools—blue water in a hole or a steel box. The Canvas breaks that convention. By sitting partially inground or fully onground, the exposed walls become an extension of your architecture. Match your home's facade with the same stone, stucco, or brick. Continue your garden wall right into the pool surround. Create terraced levels with integrated planter beds. The pool stops being an addition and starts being part of the original design.
Whether your home is a Hill Country ranch, a Mediterranean villa, or a modern industrial loft—the Canvas adapts to you, not the other way around.
Stronger Than 6" Gunite Pools
Faster Installation Than Traditional Pools
Cheaper to Maintain Than Gunite Pools
The Canvas exterior is engineered to accept virtually any cladding material. Natural flagstone for a rugged, organic feel. Smooth stucco or rendered concrete for clean contemporary lines. Brick for timeless character. Reclaimed wood panels for a warm, cabin-like aesthetic. Even tile mosaics or Corten steel for a bold artistic statement.
Your local mason, builder, or landscaper can apply the material directly to the pool's exterior mounting system. The structural steel behind it handles all the load—your finish material is decorative only, so there are no engineering restrictions on what you choose.
The S-Series Canvas combines aerospace-grade steel engineering with total exterior design freedom. Faster, stronger, and more versatile than any traditional pool—built to blend seamlessly with your home and landscape.
Behind every Canvas exterior is a lattice of 80-ksi tubular steel—precision-welded into a rigid space frame that carries the full hydrostatic load so your chosen cladding carries none. Stone, stucco, brick, or timber simply dress a structure that already exceeds six times the strength of 8-inch gunite.
Dual hot-dip-galvanized skins encase a closed-cell polyurethane core rated at R-10, creating a thermally sealed envelope that holds heat overnight and sheds excess warmth on summer afternoons. Tube-to-tube joints let the pool grow modularly—add length, add depth—without re-engineering the frame or disturbing the cladding you've already installed.
A Canvas pool pairs beauty with brains. A commercial-grade UV-C reactor neutralizes 99 percent of pathogens in a single pass, while a precision peristaltic pump delivers micro-pulses of sodium hypochlorite—keeping free chlorine at roughly 0.5 ppm, no different from what flows through your kitchen tap.
There are no salt cells to scale, no stabilizer tablets to dissolve, and no chemical odor drifting toward the cladding you spent weeks selecting. Cyanuric acid and chloride stay well below the thresholds that corrode stone, discolor grout, or stress nearby plantings—so the exterior materials you love stay looking the way you intended.
The Canvas excels on sloped lots, elevated decks, and sites where full excavation isn't practical or desirable. Set it partially into a hillside and clad the exposed face in stacked stone. Place it on a patio slab and wrap it in stucco to match your home's exterior. Build it into a retaining wall with integrated seating and planters. The partial inground installation opens up design possibilities that a fully buried pool simply can't offer.
The Canvas frame consumes 85 percent less raw material than a gunite shell of equal volume, yet carries greater load. Because the cladding is non-structural, every pound of stone or stucco is decorative—not compensating for weakness. R-10 insulated panels slash heat loss by up to 80 percent, micro-dosing chemistry trims chemical consumption by roughly 40 percent, and every steel tube, insulation board, and membrane sheet is fully recyclable when the time comes.
Every Canvas module is fabricated in a climate-controlled facility where CNC plasma tables cut each tube and hot-air welders seal every seam under repeatable conditions. Insulation is bonded, galvanized skins are fitted, and the interior membrane is heat-welded before the pool ever meets your property.
Dimensional lasers confirm squareness and alignment prior to shipping, so the pool arrives ready for your builder to begin cladding immediately. Single-module Canvas pools can hold water the same day they're set; multi-module layouts typically assemble in under two days—without cranes, rebar, or weather delays.
The Canvas inherits every efficiency built into the S-Series platform: continuous R-10 insulation that retains heat through cool Texas nights, variable-speed pumps that sip electricity, and optional solar integration that offsets the remaining draw across the year. Salt chlorinators, stabilizer tablets, fossil-fuel heaters, and fixed-speed pumps are excluded by design—replaced by smarter, quieter alternatives that keep operating costs near zero.
While you control every detail of the exterior cladding, the interior is finished in Ecopool's Architectural 3D Membrane—a textured, non-porous surface inspired by natural sandbars and layered stone. Made from Zycore™, a German-engineered polymer composite, it outperforms plaster, fiberglass, and tile in algae resistance, UV stability, and long-term colour retention. The result is a pool whose outside reflects your taste and whose inside reflects decades of material science.
Step inside a Canvas pool and your feet meet a surface shaped by German embossing technology—contours modelled on water-worn rock and layered sandstone pressed into a reinforced polymer sheet. The texture provides confident grip without the roughness of exposed aggregate, and smooth glide without the slipperiness of gel coat.
The membrane is non-porous, chemically inert, and maintenance-friendly: robotic cleaners track straight lines without snagging, algae finds no foothold, and the colour you select on day one stays true for decades. Choose from subtle warm greys, deep midnight tones, or vivid Mediterranean blues to complement the cladding you've wrapped around the outside.
Zycore™ is the commercial-grade composite that gives the Canvas its interior resilience. Flexible polymer layers fuse with a high-strength polyester matrix to deliver roughly 3,200 psi of tensile strength—four times what traditional renders achieve. Co-extruded UV stabilizers lock in colour and structural integrity decade after decade, even under direct Texas sun.
No chalking like plaster. No crazing like fiberglass. No grout lines to scrub like tile. The inert, seamless surface stabilizes water chemistry from the inside out, pairing with the Canvas's external cladding freedom to create a pool that's as refined beneath the waterline as it is above it.
The S-Series Canvas exists for one reason: to give you a pool that looks like it was designed by your architect, not shipped from a factory. The exterior is entirely yours—stone that echoes your garden walls, stucco that continues your home's facade, brick that ties the whole property together. Every material choice is aesthetic; the structural work is already done.
Underneath that cladding sits the same aerospace-grade steel platform trusted across the entire S-Series line: insulated panels, precision-welded frames, and a Zycore™ interior that outlasts concrete, fiberglass, and tile. Smart water management keeps chemistry balanced with minimal intervention, while R-10 insulation and variable-speed equipment keep energy costs near zero.
From sloped hillsides to flat patios, from modern minimalism to rustic Hill Country charm—the Canvas adapts to your site, your style, and your vision. The result isn't just a pool in your backyard. It's a pool that belongs there.
Every S-Series pool shares the same aerospace-grade tubular steel architecture, insulated core, and intelligent water management. Choose the installation style that fits your vision.
