faq

what is the life expectancy of a 600 micron solar blanket cover ?
  - approximately 6 years subject to customer care.

how effective is a bubble cover at retaining heat ?
  - solar blanket covers have  a thermal resistance (R) value of 0.067 and virtually eliminate evaporation. this enables solar blanket covers to save up to 70% of the pool heating energy requirements. see also technical information

what colours are available ?
 - transparent blue only.

how do I decide which grade of solar blanket cover to buy ?
 - the thicker the grade of solar blanket the more durable the cover, therefore choose the thickest grade if your budget will allow.

are covers with larger bubbles superior ?
 - absolutely not. insulation is a function of material thickness.

which side goes up ?
 - the flat side is the top and the bubble side is on the bottom. this makes for easier cleaning.

can I get a black cover ?
 - no - on black covers the sun tended to heat the cover rather the pool. the blue covers are superior as they allow the sun through to heat the water.

do I need a cover on an indoor pool ?
 - yes - covers significantly reduce indoor condensation as well as saving heat loss.

"we’ve had our pool a couple of seasons and were contemplating purchasing a heat pump. We’d heard of someone else with our type of pool, a ceramic composite pool, who had one of your solar covers and claimed they didn’t need it heated. so we purchased your solar bubble cover and sure enough within a week the pool temperature had risen a few degrees. i reckon that over the summer our pool was on average 3 to 5 degrees hotter, reaching a high 28 to 29 degrees.
 the cutting and fitting of it was all relatively simple. we also bought the reel for the cover which works great.
 thanks again, awesome product.
 cheers, paul mackenzie "
