PREMIUM MATERIAL FOR DURABLE PERFORMANCE

Kohler whirlpools are made from Kohler Cast Iron, High-gloss Acrylic, or Kohler Vikrell* Advanced Composite.  Kohler Cast Iron is the premier material for whirlpools.  Its cast iron base offers a rock-solid feeling of strength and integrity.  An extra thick layer of protective enamel offers the glossiest wear surface anywhere.  Plus vivid color that continues to shine long after the others have lost their glow.  It will retain its original beauty and durability for 50 or more years, making Kohler Cast Iron whirlpool truly a "once for a lifetime" purchase. Kohler Cast Iron Detail
Kohler High-Gloss Acrylic Kohler High-Gloss Acrylic whirlpools are offered in many exciting shapes and sizes.  They are vacuum-molded from sheets of colored acrylic and reinforced with fiberglass for superior resistance against shipping cracking and flexing.   Kohler high-gloss acrylic and FRP whirlpools offer an easy-to-care for surface that is very durable.
Vikrell Advanced Composite Kohler Vikrell Advanced Composite is pressure and heat molded from a mixture of polyester resin, and fiberglass.  It is an economical alternative to acrylic and is comparable in terms of gloss and ease of cleaning.  Plus it is 20% lighter weight which makes for easier handling.
DESIGNS SIMPLIFY INSTALLATION

Every Kohler whirlpool has a preleveled bottom, an integral bottom support structure along with a cord and plug to speed installation.  For 3-wall alcove installation, many whirlpools feature built-in nailing flanges as well as optional or integral whirlpool aprons.  Undermount whirlpool installation is quickened with a life-size cut-out template and step-by-step instructions.
