Pool covers are produced using excellent plastic with "rises" on the underside.


How do you choose a good swimming pool cover? Here is some information to help you choose.


Heat is lost from a swimming pool by evaporation of the water surface, if you cover the water surface you will cut heat losses. A simple plastic sheet would do the job but it would sink so you need a sheet with bubbles to keep it afloat. The first pool covers were developed from the same technology as bubble wrap. The pool covers are made from two layers of plastic one flat layer on top bonded to a bottom layer with air bubbles in it. Pool covers are often referred to as bubble covers. The first pool covers were colored blue because it seemed a sensible color to choose.


Research on pool covers soon discovered that not only did they keep the heat in the pool by stopping evaporation but by a “greenhouse” effect they could also heat the surface of the water. This lead to the covers being referred to as Solar Covers.


Manual Covers are the cheapest option for covering a pool and as the name implies are operated by hand, usually rolling the cover around a drum positioned above ground anchored at the end of the pool or on braked castors for easy storage

A cover prevents the bad stuff like leaves, dirt, and debris from getting into your swimming pool whilst keeping the good stuff – heat, water, and chemicals from getting out.

If you have an outdoor pool, then a certain amount of maintenance will be necessary before you close the pool down. As part of the winterizing program, fitting a high-quality winter debris cover will probably be the most cost-effective maintenance decision you will make.
