SOLAR BLANKET
Thermal covers, commonly called bubble covers, are designed to utilize the sun's rays to gradually warm the entire pool. These covers float on the surface of the water, bubble side down, and are trimmed to fit all pool sizes and shapes. The transparent cover allows the sun's solar energy to pass through & warms the pool during the day by 6 - 8 degrees (weather permitting) and reduces heat loss at night, there for extending your swimming season. The blanket conserves water & reduces evaporation up to 90% because it's in direct contact with the water. The cover forms a barrier to avoid dirt and debris collecting in the water so the water is kept cleaner and pool maintenance & chemical consumption is reduced.

ROLL UP STATIONS
While a thermal cover is relatively light and easy to use on smaller pools, it is recommended that a roll up station be used in pools exceeding 7m in length. The roll up station will assist in the removal of the cover from the water as well as the neat and safe storage of the material once removed from the pool.
The roll up station is made from aluminium and stainless steel components. For use with a roll up station, all thermal covers will require both an attachment kit (which secures the cover to the roller of the roll up station) and a leading edge kit which facilitates the closing of the cover across the pool. A unique reinforcing material is added to both ends of the cover to allow a quality connection to the attachment kit and leading edge of the cover.
The roll up stations is secured to the coping or paving by a stainless steel anchor bolt and ground anchor (one on each stand). The roll up station is portable with castors and can be moved away from the pool as required.
