What Is the Deal with Swimming Pool Covers?

Swimming pool covers come in a wide variety of materials and has many purposes. Our pool cleaning company wants to help you understand the differences between each, and when to use them.

Solar Covers

These swimming pool covers work to prevent evaporation by trapping solar radiation and increasing the temperature of your pool, even in a single-use. They come in a wide range of colors, shapes, sizes, and thicknesses, and are UV protected.

Winter Covers

Winter swimming pool covers make pool cleaning easier when it comes time to open the pool for the swimming season. Their fabrics come in a variety of weaves, but the tighter the weave, the less dirt, debris and water runoff will get into your pool. They also help prevent the formation of algae under the cover during the offseason.

Safety Covers

Safety covers are best for families with young children or pets, as they can handle the weight of a child or pet if they fall onto the pool cover. It also can handle the weight of heavy snow or rainfall.

Solar Cover Alternatives

These alternatives to pool covers provide an invisible barrier for your pool that reduces heat loss because of water evaporation. They provide the protection of the water needs and do not get destroyed during use. One of these swimming pool covers is a SolarPill which is placed in the pool and needs to be replaced through the season.
