Summer pool covers: why it is important to use them

Pool covers are a necessary tool in winter, but their use in summer should not be underestimated. Many people might thing that a pool needs to be covered only in the coldest months of the year to protect it from dirt and bad weather.

In fact, pool covers can have huge advantages also in summer, if you choose the right model. So, let’s have a look at the different types of covers starting from the advantages they offer. 

Heat retention covers to spare

Let’s start from a premise: the water in a pool that is left uncovered is subject to the phenomenon of water evaporation, above all in summer. The first consequence of this phenomenon is the necessity fo constant water topping up and, as a consequence, an extended use of chemical products. Heat retention covers stop water evaporation completely thus guaranteeing savings in terms of water and chemical products. But this is not the only advantage: especially at the beginning and at the end of the season, indeed, when temperatures begin to drop, a heat retention cover maintains the heat accumulated during the day, thus preventing night heat dispersion. This means that the season can be extended without using expensive heat pumps. 

Coverall and slatted covers: protection, safety, and elegance

Covers are non only used to save money, but also for many other good reasons. In summer, indeed, even though weather conditions are better than in winter, the pool tends to get dirty. Using an adequate cover permits to preserve the pool cleanness and consequently the elegance of your garden. A model like Coverall, for example, guarantees the utmost level of protection, preventing dirt and dust from entering into water, in addition to offering another, essential advantage: safety. At night or in general when you do not use the pool, indeed, it is advisable to cover the pool to avoid the risk of accidental falls; Coverall, just like automatic slatted covers, is an essential instrument to prevent tragic domestic accidents.
