Most suitable for Outdoor Pools and Pools in Warmer Climates

The most popular type of swimming pool cover sold in the UK is the solar pool cover. This bubble type solar blanket is designed for use on outdoor pools to maximise the benefits of free solar energy.

These solar pool covers harness the energy of the sun by transmitting the sun’s rays through specially sealed air cells that float on the pool surface. In turn, this will raise the temperature of your pool water. In some circumstances the temperature gain can be more than 10 degrees which in some cases can extend your swimming season by up to six weeks.

Step 1 Please Choose Your Pool Shape

We are able to design and manufacture any cover to suit any pool shape. We have illustrated below the most common designs of pools. Please select which shape corresponds to your design of pool and then proceed to step 2.

If your pool is an irregular shape then please use the 'freeform' design. You generally only need the length and width as its longest and widest points to obtain a price. Some designs require plans which you can download from above. Alternatively you can opt for a 'Rectangle' cover that you can cut for yourself on poolside. Please do not select hemming from the optional extras if you plan to the cut the cover yourself.

Step 2 Please Enter Pool Size (Wall to Wall Measurements)

You will need to input the measurements which relate to the pool shape you have chosen above. In most cases this will be the pool water dimensions (wall to wall), however on freeform pools this may be the measurements at its longest and widest points. Please make sure you fill out all the dimensions required i.e. a Roman End pool requires 4 measurements - A,B,C and D. Circular only requires measurement A

Plans/Sketches are usually only required on Freeform, Octagonal and Side Walk-in Stair/Bay Pools. For help on measuring your pool accurately please see the useful downloads section above.

Step 3 Choose Cover Material

Our range of pool cover materials will suit various swimming pools, environments and budgets. We have identified an easy to use rating system which should help you decide which cover is the most suitable one for you.

  • AquaMax 600 Micron Solar Pool Cover 6 YEAR WARRANTY - LARGEST AND MOST DURABLE BUBBLE

    The MaxAir Solar Pool Cover Clear is unrivalled in its ability to retain heat, increase pool water temperature and withstand harsh conditions. Any solar blanket is only as strong as its thinnest part. With our MaxAir technology you can be assured that there are no weak spots in the bubble corners and that the material distribution is even. This is very important with solar pool bubbles. That's why due to the solar bubble type and size, MaxAir outperforms any solar pool cover on the market.

    So why choose MaxAir over any other solar cover:-

    - Strongest solar material on the market meaning that the product will protect a swimming pool for longer
    - Height of the bubble means that it has the best buoyancy making it more resistant to being submerged during a downpours
    - Best UV package & is significantly stronger than others after being exposed to the equivalent of 4 years UV intensity
    - Larger bubbles also mean better insulation than other small bubble blankets so swimming pools using this solar pool material stay warmer overnight;
     - The larger bubble contact on the water surface provides a much broader base for better wind resistance and automatic cleaner operation;
     - The proprietary extrusion technology developed by Sealed Air enables Sealed Air to offer a perfectly formed bubble with no weak spots in the corners.

Most suitable for Outdoor Pools and Pools in Warmer Climates

The most popular type of swimming pool cover sold in the UK is the solar pool cover. This bubble type solar blanket is designed for use on outdoor pools to maximise the benefits of free solar energy.

These solar pool covers harness the energy of the sun by transmitting the sun’s rays through specially sealed air cells that float on the pool surface. In turn, this will raise the temperature of your pool water. In some circumstances the temperature gain can be more than 10 degrees which in some cases can extend your swimming season by up to six weeks.

In addition, covering the surface of the water will reduce the water evaporation by up to 98%, which will decrease your pool heating and pool chemical expenditure.

They are available in a variety of grades and thicknesses which determines their effectiveness in various environments. We have designed an easy to use grid that should help you in choosing the most appropriate cover for your pool.



Some of the pool covers are more suited to help with solar gain like the Sol + Guard Solar 500 Micron Solar Cover and others that include an aluminium heat reflective underside like the Gold 500 Micron Solar Pool Cover are designed to retain more heat in the pool. Nevertheless most of the 500 micron thickness of covers are going to retain a good degree of heat, as they will nearly all eliminate heat loss caused by water evaporation. We also offer a range of solar covers that are designed specifically for the warmer climates like Spain, Italy, France, Cyrpus etc. These covers have been manufactured with extra UV stabilisation which will add to the general life expectancy of the cover.

Additional options are available including a range of edge finishes for example hemming and specifically designed leading edge & towing kits. These are particularly useful if the cover is to be handled by one person and also will help to extend the life of the product too.

As the solar type bubble covers are of the manual variety, you will almost certainly require a swimming pool reel. Without one of these, it is fairly difficult to remove the covers from the pool and with regular manual handling, the material will most certainly get damaged very easily. We offer a variety of swimming pool rollers that can be operated by a steering wheel, solar energy or for a greater investment, by the push of a button on a remote control.
