For
most South African homeowners, after their home itself, a swimming pool
is their biggest domestic investment - and for so many it's an
investment providing a poor return in terms of fun and exercise.
Now here's your chance to join the lucky ones. A swimming pool solar
heater blanket, like our quality solar pool covers for example, extends
your swimming season by months and months and also makes round-the-clock
swimming a daily event.
Let's face it, for most of us a chilly pool is not exactly inviting,
except when the weather is at its warmest. Yet with a swimming pool
solar blanket from
Solar Panels Direct
it needn't be that way.
Our solar pool covers are a quick and easy answer. These world-class
South African made swimming pool covers are something of a marvel. Solar
pool covers work just as well on the tiniest outdoor spa as they do on a
movie-star monster pool, or a commercial/municipal installation. Putting
aside the technicalities, our solar pool covers keep the water in your
pool around six degrees warmer.
Our swimming pool covers also help retain the warmth in heated pools and
keep out most tree debris and other flying rubbish.
In spite of all these advantages, for many pool owners the biggest
attraction of solar pool covers will be the impressive savings clocked
up on pool chemicals and water loss through evaporation. It's safe to
say that whatever type of indoor or outdoor pool or spa you have, our
solar pool covers will have paid for themselves just 12 months after
installation.
The PowerPlastics Solid Safety
Cover
Benefits
The
PowerPlastics Solid Safety Cover is the single most
effective physical barrier to prevent child drowning and
to secure a pool, conforming to international safety
standards as it supports the weight of two adults and a
child. Importantly, there are no fiddly hooks and
eyelets, making the cover quick and easy to use. This
blend of simplicity of design, coupled with practical
and user-friendly fastening systems are what make this
cover the desirable choice over other pool safety
systems on the market.
The
PowerPlastics Solid Safety Cover can also be used to
reduce water, chemical and power usage, making it a
great cover choice for the eco-friendly home too, as
well as a way to winterize or shut down the pool in the
off season.
For
added convenience, the PowerPlastics Solid Safety Cover
can be automated with a motorised Rollup Station. Two
systems are available – EasyRoll and the Vektor.
Features
Simplicity of design and ease of use: supported across
the pool by aluminium battens that are secured into the
PVC cover, one end is anchored into place with removable
anchor bolts. The opposite end has corresponding
ratchets which allow the cover to be tightened. Two
people are required to operate the cover.
Tamper proof:
the lockable
strapping system makes it difficult for a small child to
tamper with or attempt to release the cover.
Drainage system:
a common
drawback with first generation PVC covers is that rain
or sprinkler water can collect on top of a PVC pool
cover, forming a small pool that curious toddlers may be
tempted to play in. Our second generation PowerPlastics
Solid Safety Cover features drainage holes to eliminate
these pools forming on top of the cover.
Durable: made from 550-600 gsm
PVC, aluminium battens and industrial strength stainless
steel ratchets.
Please note that the weight of
the PowerPlastics Solid Safety Cover will increase
according to the pool size. While there are different
methods to cover and uncover one’s pool which do not
involve picking the entire cover up – ever – there is a
certain inherent weight to the cover. The weight can be
calculated as follows: m2 x 1.5kg.
Colours
A
variety of colours mean this cover can blend into the
look and feel of the outdoor living area. Comes in
Blue/Black, Black, Racing Green, Brown and StoneGrey.
Warranty
The
PowerPlastics Solid Safety Cover and all parts carry a
one year warranty. The expected lifespan of the cover is
three to six years. The aluminium battens should last
three times that period.
