Do not store the cover completely in the shade.
•
water temperature in the swimming pool should not exceed 40
•
Do not store the cover at temperatures above 40
•
The cover must not be exposed to conditions that cause cracks, tears, or damage.
•
Installation
•
The installation of the solar cover is a relatively simple task.
Take the time to trim the cover that should be done at least twice. Leave the cover preferably
•
2 to 3 weeks before the final trim. This allows the creases created by the packaging to flatten
out. The solar cover may lose up to 10 % in size within the first few weeks. This is normal for a
new product. So do not cut off too much if you think at first the cover is too big.
Take the cover out of the packaging and place it next to the pool. Carefully unfold it and
•
spread it over the surface of the pool with the bubbles downwards and the smooth side up-
wards. If possible, leave the cover in the sun for a few hours to "rest."
When it is ready, smooth the cover over the pool surface and remove the creases and air
•
pockets with a brush. As soon as the cover is smooth, you can start trimming the cover with
sharp scissors to the shape of the pool. When you have a skimmer, cut out a "tab" or "tongue"
in the cover that sits over the skimmer.
We recommend that the solar cover be cut a bit larger than the pool surface so that it "flaps
•
up" on the edge and forms a kind of sealing within the pool so that leaves and debris remain
on the surface of the cover instead of falling into the water. Foliage can be brushed or blown
into the skimmer before removing the cover. When you cut the cover for the first time, leave
10–15 cm more material all around. Trim the cover so that it flaps up over the pool edge.
If you have someone to help, ask the second person to stand on the opposite side of the pool
•
from where you are working and hold the solar cover. During cutting, it is important to check
the cover from behind and in front of you to make sure that it does not move.
Once you have the basic shape, stop cutting and give the cover some time to spread out.
•
After about 2–3 weeks you can cut the cover into its final shape.
UV light and the pool chemicals such as chlorine create a very harsh environment. The cover
•
is constantly attacked by the chlorine contained in the water and the UV rays of the sun. The
heat can also add up to the effects of UV light and chlorine.
Maintenance and storage
The lifespan of the bubble cover is limited and reaches around 50–125 % of its expected ser-
•
vice life, depending on the amount of care taken by the user.
The conditions in a swimming pool are defined by the following factors:
•
1. the amount of UV radiation produced by the sun,
2. the amount of pool chemicals in the water (such as chlorine),
3. the chemical parameters that keep the water in balance: pH value (potent hydrogen), lime
hardness (CH), total alkalinity (TA),
4. the temperature of the water in the pool (with the cover on),
5. the heat generated in the cover outside the pool,
6. the combination of the above factors.
Summary:
A swimming pool with a high proportion of chlorine/unbalanced water will reduce the life of the
•
bubble cover and accelerate weathering.
•
By following a few simple rules for maintaining your solar cover, you can ensure that your
solar pool cover will last longer.
