Product overview

How it works

The cover moves along two side tracks. A roller at one end stores the fabric when the pool is uncovered. The controls and motor included depend on the order.

What coverage helps with

When the pool is not in use, a fitted fabric layer can keep leaves and larger debris out and reduce the water surface exposed to evaporation. Heat retention depends on the cover, weather and how long the pool is covered. Ask for measurements or test data before comparing claimed savings.

What to check before ordering

Measure the pool and send a photo from above. Show the steps, ladders and any objects near the edge. We can then review where the tracks and roller could go.

Using it safely

Do not assume this cover is safe to walk on or that it meets a safety standard. Ask for documents for the exact system, and follow its instructions for removing water from the cover.

Installation, power and site work

A new pool and an existing pool may need different track fixing and roller storage. Review the available space, local electrical work and drainage with an installer before ordering. Confirm who measures, installs and connects the system and what support is included.

Weather, upkeep and total cost

Ask for the selected system’s limits for sun, wind, rain, ice and snow, and what to do during a power failure. Check the cover and tracks as directed in its manual. A quote should separate the kit, shipping, site work and installation and state warranty terms for each component.

Track choices and pool layout

The catalogue shows TOP, FLAT and IN WALL track arrangements. The pool edge, finished deck and available fixing surfaces determine which arrangement can be installed. Include steps, ladders and other obstructions on the plan.

Rain, debris and day-to-day use

A closed cover helps keep debris out and can reduce evaporation. Check the cover after rain and remove standing water as the supplied instructions require; ask whether the selected system needs a cover pump.

Automatic pool cover · Track and site layout

For an automatic pool cover, a retractable pool cover needs a clear operating path. Compare the track positions with the finished pool edge, steps and available roller space.

Automatic pool cover · Equipment and order details

For an automatic pool cover, a fabric pool cover quote should identify the fabric, tracks, roller, drive and controls, and distinguish supply from installation.

Choosing and ordering

Is this right for your project?

• You want a retractable fabric cover and have space for two straight, parallel track runs and a roller. The track layout and covered area must be checked against your site.

• If you need a proven safety barrier, request the test documents for the exact supplied system and installation; appearance alone is not proof.

How to make the decision

A tracked fabric system and a floating slatted cover are different constructions. Compare the space for tracks and a roller, access for servicing, total installed cost and any required safety documentation before deciding.

What to send for a useful quote

• Inside pool length and width, a dimensioned overhead plan and photos of the pool and deck.

• Steps, ladders, raised edges, obstacles, available track fixing surfaces and possible roller location.

• Destination, project timing and whether you need supply only or installation support.

Frequently asked questions

Will it fit my pool?

Send the pool dimensions, an overhead plan and details of steps, obstructions and track mounting surfaces for a layout review.

What is included?

The quotation should identify the fabric, tracks, roller, drive, controls and any fixings supplied; installation and electrical work must be agreed separately.

Can this system qualify as an automatic pool safety cover?

Certification, load capacity and safe operating conditions must be verified for the actual system. Do not assume a rating from its appearance.

How are water and debris managed?

Follow the selected system’s instructions and confirm whether a cover pump or another method is required.

How large a pool can it cover?

The reference catalogue lists up to 7.5 × 25 m for automatic and 4.5 × 14 m for manual fabric systems. These are catalogue limits, not a promise that every shape, installation or configuration fits.

What happens during a power cut?

Do not force the cover. Ask the installer whether the selected drive has a manual override and how to use it safely.

What affects the final price and warranty?

Pool dimensions, track arrangement, drive, controls, installation and electrical work can change the total. Ask for an itemised quotation and the warranty terms for each component.

Can it be planned for an existing pool?

For an automatic pool cover, an existing pool may be suitable after a survey of measurements, fixing surfaces, electrical access and obstacles.
