SWIMMING POOL COVER
After using swimming pools or closing them for winters, it can be easy for you to overlook the importance of covering it as well as the type of cover you use to protect it. Covering swimming pools can be very beneficial for you because of a number of reasons.
They reduce water evaporation and maintain its temperature. Swimming pools, however, could lose energy in a variety of ways, but evaporation is considered their largest source of energy loss. However, the evaporation rate for both indoor and outdoor pools could vary, as outdoor pools lose energy rapidly as compared to indoor. However, our services of pool covering are perfect for helping to minimize the evaporation rate for both indoor and outdoor pools.
Covering pools when they are not in use is the most effective means of reducing heating costs. It could make your 70 to 80 percent savings. Covering indoor pools reduces evaporation and needs to ventilate indoor air and replace it with unconditioned outdoor air. When an indoor pool is covered, you can also shut off exhaust fans, which could save more energy.
Types of pool covers:
Generally, all you really need to cover your pool is just a big sheet of plastic. Plastic meets vapor barrier requirements. But a big plastic sheet that you buy from a lumber store is probably not your best choice. It will be very difficult to hold, store, and tear easily, and the sun’s rays will make it deteriorate quickly. You can use a plastic sheet, but it won’t be effortless and will probably last 1-2 seasons.
So it is best to use those covers that are specifically designed for swimming pools. At ALAWAI, we have a range of easy covers that are specifically designed to meet all the requirements. You can choose from transparent to opaque, and also there are dark and light-colored covers are available.
The different types of covers include;
Bubble or solar cover is similar to bubble packing material, except it uses a thicker grade of plastic and they have UV inhibitors.
It helps to keep water warm, prevent evaporation, purify water, reheat and control hot water, and reduce the use of water, heating, and cleaning equipment. It is environmentally friendly, which you can also use in the middle of summer.
They are made with heavier material and have a longer life expectancy than bubble covers. They are also available within a thin layer of flexible insulation sandwiched between two layers of vinyl.
These are usually used to protect your pool’s water during the closing season and to protect it from the heat. They are safe from water bags or weights and will not hold the weight of children, animals, or heavy debris, so they cannot prevent collisions and other accidents. However, they are not costly and easy to install.
They are a great type of cover that can be rolled out without any effort. This is one of the most reliable and robust models. You can easily open and close them just by using a push button.
Automatic covers are very easy to use and are much more rescue; that’s why they can also be used as protection against accidents.
They are also a great option to choose when you do not want to make your cover visible. They are available in automatic, semi-automatic, or manual models. Hidden pool covering services could be costly, but they are well worth the investment.
They act as are blankets and keep the heat in the water. They also help protect your pool’s water from the sun and reduce the chance of algae. You must know one thing about them; they do not heat the water, but they effectively keep heat in the water.

How to use easy pool covers?
If you are using your pool during the day, remove the cover just before swimming and replace it once you are done using it.
Suppose you only use it at night. In that case, the effectiveness of its cover will depend on whether evaporation and other losses that prevent cover exceed the reduction in solar benefits caused by the cover. The type of coverage and the climate affect this balance. In dry and/or hot climates, the evaporation rate from the pond increases. Therefore, it is usually beneficial to have a transparent or bubble cover during the daytime. In hot weather humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. In this case, it may be more practical to leave the cover in the afternoon.
