Q. "You don't need a pool cover with a heated pool."A. False. Yes, you do. More than one third of the heat you put into your pool can be wasted if you don't cover it up. We as a society can't afford to waste that much energy these days, particularly if your pool is heated using fossil fuels like electricity or gas.
Q. "Pool covers don't work that well anyway"
A. False. Yes, they do. It is a scientific fact that a waterproof cover stops evaporation and reduces chemical usage.
Q. Just use "floating rings" or this "new miracle chemical" that you cannot see, but somehow magically eliminates evaporation from your pool.
A. False, false, false. The simple fact is, if the cover is fully waterproof, it will stop nearly 100% of water evaporating out of your pool. Floating rings and invisible chemicals just don't do the same job. Don't be fooled by bogus claims. If it seems too good to be true, it very often is.
Q. Do I really need a pool cover in the winter time?
A. True if you want to save water and pool chemicals. With a cover you can reduce the pool filter running cycle to save electricity too. Otherwise you will still spend the same on electricity running the filter and cleaning time keeping leaves and debris out of the pool.
Q. Pool covers look ugly, don't they?
A. False. Not at all, a properly fitting and maintained pool cover will complement any pool surround.
Q. Pool Covers really save a lot of chemicals?
A. True. By keeping the Sun off the pool water and reducing the light entering the pool or sealing the top of the pool, they substantially reduce the chemicals needed. A pool covered with a floating cover will use around 2/3 less chlorine.
Q. I have read that some Pool Covers save over 99% evaporation?
A. True. A Pool Cover made from a fully waterproof fabric (like a floating bubble cover) will stop almost 100% of vapour transferring through the fabric.
