VINYL POOL COVER: How It Works
The ease of use of the automatic pool cover makes is a much sought after option for pool safety and maintenance. The automatic pool cover is best suited to simply shaped pools with single level decking.
Tracks that run in a straight line are utilized to transport the automatic pool cover over the pool. If you are building a new pool, you can arrange for these tracks to be installed under the coping but the tracks for an automatic pool cover must be mounted on the surface of the deck on existing pools. Therefore, adequate decking must be available to accommodate the tracks
A key switch controls the automatic pool cover and the operation is effortless. The automatic pool cover can be enclosed in a redwood bench when it is rolled up. These benches can provide an attractive storage solution for your automatic pool cover. During the construction phase, an underground vault can be built to house the motor and cover.
Vinyl pool covers are also available in semi-automatic, manual, and snap-down versions. The semi-automatic cover is manually pulled closed and automatically opened. The manual cover is opened and closed without the use of a motor. The snap-down cover does not use tracks and is shaped to the contour of your pool. |
