Pool Covers

Swimming Pool Covers & Rollers

Explore our extensive range of swimming pool covers designed to protect your pool, retain heat, reduce evaporation, and make maintenance easier all year round. Whether you’re looking for a summer solar cover, a winter debris cover, or a fully automatic safety system, we stock solutions suitable for indoor and outdoor pools.


Pair your swimming pool cover with a quality roller or reel system for effortless handling and storage, and maximise efficiency by combining your cover with high-performance pool pumps, filters and heating systems.


Why Use a Swimming Pool Cover?

  • Debris Protection: A swimming pool cover prevents leaves, insects and dirt from contaminating your water, reducing cleaning time and strain on your filtration system.
  • Heat Retention: Pool covers can significantly reduce heat loss, helping lower heating costs and extend your swimming season.
  • Reduced Evaporation: Covers can reduce water evaporation by up to 90–95%, saving water and lowering chemical consumption.
  • Chemical Savings: By minimising evaporation and UV exposure, covers help preserve chlorine and other treatment chemicals.
  • Improved Safety: Safety pool covers provide a physical barrier to help prevent accidental access by children or pets.

Our Range of Swimming Pool Covers

We supply a wide selection of swimming pool covers to suit different pool types, budgets and usage requirements


Solar Pool Covers

Solar swimming pool covers are ideal for outdoor pools during spring and summer. Their bubble design traps solar energy, warms the water naturally and reduces heat loss overnight. Available in multiple thicknesses and colours, solar covers are a cost-effective way to improve energy efficiency.


Winter Pool Covers

Winter debris covers are designed to protect your pool during the off-season. They prevent leaves, dirt and algae growth while reducing maintenance when reopening your pool in spring.


Safety Pool Covers

Safety swimming pool covers are constructed from reinforced mesh or solid materials and are tensioned securely across the pool. They provide enhanced protection against accidental entry while also keeping debris out.


Automatic Pool Covers

Automatic swimming pool covers offer convenience at the touch of a button. Available as slatted or reinforced systems, they can be installed in-ground (ideal for new builds) or mounted above ground for retrofit applications.


Indoor Pool Covers

Indoor swimming pool covers are essential for reducing evaporation and controlling humidity levels inside pool enclosures or buildings. They help maintain water temperature and protect surrounding structures


Pool Rollers & Reels

Swimming pool rollers and reels make it easy to remove, deploy and store your cover. A quality reel system extends the life of your cover and simplifies day-to-day use


How to Choose the Right Swimming Pool Cover

When selecting a swimming pool cover, consider


  • Whether your pool is indoor or outdoor
  • If safety is a priority
  • Your heating system and energy usage
  • Seasonal vs year-round protection
  • Your pool size and shape

Using the correct size is essential. Measure your pool carefully or use a cover calculator to ensure the best fit and performance.


Invest in the Right Pool Cover

Choosing the right swimming pool cover helps reduce maintenance costs, protect your investment and improve overall pool efficiency. From simple solar blankets to fully automated safety systems, our range offers practical solutions for every type of pool owner.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I need a swimming pool cover if I don’t use a heater?

Yes. Even without a heater, a swimming pool cover reduces evaporation, keeps debris out and lowers chemical usage, making pool maintenance easier and more cost-effective.


How much heat can a pool cover save?

A properly fitted swimming pool cover can reduce heat loss by up to 70% and significantly cut evaporation, which is the primary source of heat loss in pools


Are automatic pool covers safe?

Automatic safety covers are designed to provide a secure barrier when properly installed and maintained. However, slatted covers primarily offer heat retention and convenience rather than full safety compliance


What size pool cover do I need?

You will need accurate pool measurements to ensure proper coverage. Using a cover calculator or consulting with our team will help ensure you order the correct size


How do I maintain my swimming pool cover?

Regularly remove debris, clean with mild soap and water, and store solar covers out of direct sunlight when not in use. Winter and safety covers should be securely tensioned to prevent sagging.
