For pool owners wishing to increase their pool water temperature, the Sol+Guard™ GeoBubble heating cover is one of the most intelligent and affordable ways to generate free energy and transfer this heat to pool water. This eco-smart cover is top of its class when it comes to maximum solar gain and, of all covers in the range, Sol+Guard has the most dramatic effect on raising a pool’s water temperature.
Benefits
Heating properties / solar gain: The Sol+Guard GeoBubble material transmits 80% of the sun’s energy in the visual and IR spectrum through the material to heat the water. Adds up to 8°C to water temperatures, allowing for longer swimming seasons and more enjoyable temperatures during the season.
Heat retention: the Sol+Guard GeoBubble cover also retains heat overnight and from any heating systems. On heated pools, it reduces the heat source consumption by up to 70%.
Reduces chemical input: reduces the costs associated with pool upkeep by 40%. Chlorine in the pool is also used more efficiently as it no longer dissipates in sunlight.
Save water: evaporation reduced by 98%+ with less top-ups required to maintain water levels. Great water savings, especially important for pools in water scarce areas.
Water hygiene: the pool is kept cleaner and relatively clear of debris, reducing the time spent on pool upkeep. Cleaner water also reduces chemical use.
Improved aesthetics: Sol+Guard GeoBubble Cover is clear (with blue tinge), it allows pool lights to shine through the cover at night.
