Types of Swimming Pool Covers

While we always recommend automatic pool covers for safety and ease of use, we offer manual options. No matter the shape and size of your pool, we’ll help you select the best pool cover for your outdoor space.

Automatic Pool Covers

Automatic covers provide a convenient, all-in-one solution that combines safety, debris protection, and heat retention. With the push of a button, these motorized covers slide open or closed, making them highly user-friendly. They also help reduce evaporation and keep out dirt and debris, keeping your pool cleaner and warmer. The main drawbacks are their high initial cost and the potential for expensive repairs if the motor or track system fails.

Manual Safety Covers

Safety covers are designed primarily to prevent accidental drownings, making them ideal for households with children or pets. Made from strong mesh or solid materials, these covers can support significant weight and are securely anchored to the pool deck. In addition to safety, they also help keep debris out of the pool and can block sunlight, reducing algae growth. However, they tend to be more expensive and require time and effort for installation and removal compared to other cover types.

Solar Covers

Solar covers, also known as solar blankets, are lightweight covers that float on the water’s surface and use the sun’s energy to heat the pool while also reducing evaporation. They are a cost-effective way to maintain warmer water temperatures and lower energy bills. Despite being easy to use and relatively inexpensive, they offer minimal safety and debris protection and can be cumbersome to store when not in use.
