Sol+Guard Geobubble 500 Cover

Description

GeoBubble Sol Guard Size & Quick Reference Guide

(A sustainable, high-performance solar cover engineered to reduce pool running costs and carbon footprint through solar gain, heat retention, and evaporation control.)

Buyer’s Guide & Pool Compatibility

• Target Application: Ideal for outdoor swimming pools where maximum solar heat gain and reduced running costs are top priorities.

• Price & Efficiency Value: Sol Guard material absorbs and transfers solar energy efficiently. Consequently, it cuts pool energy consumption by up to 70% and chemical usage by up to 40%.

• Physical Footprint & Build: The thick 500-micron GeoBubble material resists UV attack and chemical wear. Furthermore, it includes a 6-year pro-rata warranty for peace of mind in the UK & Eire.

• Size & Custom Options: Supplied in standard sizes including 10ft x 20ft, 12ft x 24ft, 14ft x 28ft, 15ft x 30ft, 16ft x 32ft, and 20ft x 40ft. Additionally, we offer a 5ft x 10ft Bay Section and bespoke made-to-measure sizing for custom pool shapes.

Maximum Solar Energy Transmission & Heat Gain

Standard covers often reflect solar energy away from the pool. In contrast, the Sol Guard transparent material acts as an active solar gain collector. Its unique material allows solar radiation to pass directly through the cover into the water. Therefore, this solar energy warms the pool water directly. As a result, water temperatures rise by up to 8°C during sunny periods.

Superior Evaporation & Debris Protection

Water evaporation causes the majority of total heat loss from a pool surface. However, the Sol Guard cover forms an airtight barrier across the water. Consequently, it eliminates water evaporation by 98%+. Furthermore, it traps heat underneath during cold overnight periods. It also prevents leaves and garden debris from contaminating your pool, reducing filter maintenance.

Eco-Friendly Energy & Chemical Savings

By capturing solar heat and preventing heat loss, the Sol Guard cover represents an eco-friendly solution to reducing running costs and your carbon footprint. It reduces energy consumption by up to 70% and cuts chemical consumption by up to 40%. Supported by a 6-year pro-rata warranty, this cover delivers long-term economic and environmental benefits.

Installation & Operating Guidelines

1. Sizing & Fitting: Place the cover bubble-side down onto the water surface. Next, allow it to settle before trimming neatly with shears for custom shapes.

2. Roller Setup: Attach the leading edge to your pool reel system using standard strap kits and eyelets.

3. Daily Usage: Keep the cover over the pool whenever it is idle. Consequently, you will maximize solar gain and prevent heat loss.

4. Chemical Care: Fold or roll back the cover during chemical shock dosing. Leave it off the pool for at least 24 hours to prevent premature degradation.

5. Off-Season Storage: Rinse the cover with fresh tap water when removing it for winter. Finally, store it in a shaded area away from direct sunlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Sol Guard raise pool water temperatures?

The translucent material allows solar radiation to pass through the cover directly into the water column. Consequently, solar energy heats the pool water directly while trapping heat underneath, raising temperatures by up to 8°C.

What warranty comes with the Sol Guard cover?

The Sol Guard cover comes with a 6-year pro-rata warranty for customers in the UK and Eire.

Can I order a custom size or shape for my pool?

Yes. We supply standard rectangular options up to 20ft x 40ft alongside bespoke custom-cut options to fit any unique pool design or step section.
