A swimming pool cover is an essential investment for any pool owner, enhancing your pool experience and ensuring its longevity. From safety and energy efficiency to cleanliness and reducing future maintenance, a pool cover is a sensible addition to any pool. It acts as a protective barrier, preventing accidents and providing peace of mind, while also conserving heat, reducing evaporation and keeping out unwanted debris.
A swimming pool cover is a practical and cost-effective solution that offers many benefits, both practical and aesthetic:
- Safety: A pool cover can enhance safety by acting as a barrier, preventing accidental falls into the pool, particularly for young children and pets.
- Energy efficiency: A pool cover helps in conserving heat and reducing evaporation, which ultimately saves energy and lowers heating costs.
- Reduced cleaning: A cover prevents debris from entering the pool, reducing the need for frequent cleaning and chemical treatment.
- Water conservation: By reducing evaporation, a pool cover helps conserve water, especially in areas experiencing water restrictions or high-water costs.
- Chemical balance: A cover minimises exposure to sunlight, which can help maintain proper chemical balance in the pool water, reducing the need for excessive chemical treatments.
- Extended swimming season: With a pool cover, you can retain heat in the pool water, allowing you to extend the swimming season by keeping the water warmer for longer periods.
- Aesthetics: Some pool covers offer the added benefit of enhancing the pool’s appearance when not in use, creating a neat and visually appealing outdoor space.
Automatic Covers
If budget allows, we always recommend our Coverstar automatic safety cover. It is one of the safest and most reliable pool covers on the market, designed to support children, pets and even adults who may accidentally walk on it. In addition to superior safety features, our Coverstar system offers many advantages over other solutions on the market.
Retro-Fit Covers
If you have an existing swimming pool without an automatic cover, you can retro-fit it with a modern integrated swimming pool safety cover system. While this requires some modifications to the pool structure, it provides a seamless built-in cover that enhances safety, lowers maintenance costs and improves energy efficiency.
Manual Covers
If you prefer a more budget-friendly option, our manual swimming pool covers are an excellent choice. These covers are operated by hand, typically rolling around a drum positioned above ground and secured at the end of the pool or on braked castors for easy storage.
