Komfort ladders
Comfortable and safe. All of the models incorporate the new Komfort steps designed by
Astrapool. This system gives better security, resistance and a larger supporting surface which
reduces effort and eases access into the swimming pool.
Compact, original and bright style. The set has a clean appearance, with no visible screws.
More comfort: a supporting surface area of 70% greater than the current edition, guaranteeing
excellent distribution of weight and balanced support.
Better ergonomics: a surface area adapted to the light curve of the underside of the foot,
improving the quality of support.
More safety: non-skid zones incorporated onto the step.

7. Recommendations
7.1. PACKAGING
Komfort ladders are delivered in an adequately packed and sealed cardboard box, on which the
positioning and stacking logistics are indicated, so as to ensure correct storage of the ladder.
Any failure to follow the instructions for storage could result in imperfections of the product.
7.2. STORAGE
Store the Komfort ladder in a place which is protected from bad weather and which does not
have a very high level of humidity.
Do not keep the cardboard box in humid conditions for an extended period of time because it
could cause warping at the bottom of the pallet.
7.3. TRANSPORT
Transport the Komfort ladder boxes in adequately bundled pallets.
Unpack the ladder once at the nal destination. If this is not possible, the ladders must be
handled with the greatest care. Any friction, knock or contact with rough surfaces could produce
imperfectionsontheexteriornish.
