SPN APR 2010 AutomaticPoolCovers
adapted to the finished pool on site guaranteeing precise fitting down to the last millimetre so providing choice and flexibility in pools where conventional solutions are inadequate or completely unsuitable.

Roldeck’s new hingeable panels were introduced at the beginning of 2009 and have been extremely well received by UK customers. The Cave Front Panel, Fixed Lid and also the In-Pool Bench Housing are now supplied with the new hinged panel system. Access for servicing and maintenance is now much easier, as the panels simply hinge rather than having to be completely lifted out. Since introducing the new HQ Polycarbonate Slats last year, Certikin have received many enquiries – especially for the crystal clear slats and customers who have purchased them are extremely pleased and satisfied with the appearance and effect they provide. Certikin’s Coverstar is a market staple and the company is confident that sales of Coverstar will remain strong in 2010. Coverstar remains at the forefront of the safety cover market, with its many unique features, such as 4,000 psi rope, 4 times stronger sliders than any other used; colour matched heat sealed webbing and exclusive Ultra Guard III vinyl composite material, which is far superior to the industry standard vinyl’s popular with other manufacturers. The New Aluminium Bench Housing has been popular with those customers wishing to retro fit a Coverstar. The main benefit is that the housing will not warp or crack like wooden housings and therefore lasts far longer. Golden Coast offer a broad range of DEL slatted pool covers to suit most requirements. The options available include covers (for use outdoors) that rely on sunlight to give the

necessary power, removing the need for expensive electrical cabling. The covers can be installed on existing and new pools and a choice of coloured slats are available to suit personal tastes. The DEL range can also be complemented by the addition of locking devices, helping to make the pool safer when not in use.
Golden Coast take safety seriously and feel that the wellbeing of family, friends and pets is critical, which is why they recommend the Infinity safety cover. Market leader in the USA for 20 years, Infinity safety covers account for thousands of installations annually. A combination of product development and high standards of quality ensure the Infinity safety cover remains technically innovative while offering a reliable solution to swimming pool safety.
“Whether it’s for safety, convenience, energy savings or aesthetics – or a combination of all four – the fact is automatic pool covers in particular are proving more popular to consumers every year”
The low profile unobtrusive and versatile Abrisud pool cover from Aquaflex is a safety cover, debris cover, solar cover and pool enclosure combined. Fully automated the cover can be rolled back completely away from the pool or on breezy days sections can be kept in place to use as a wind break. In poor weather access is via the sliding trap door, leaving the other sections in place and allowing swimming whilst the pool is still fully covered. When totally closed up and not in use the cover is lockable so the pool cannot be accessed without the key holder’s knowledge. Energy saving and functional the Abrisud is probably the most well engineered and comprehensive pool cover available. Paramount Pool Products have been importing the long established and well-liked Aquamatic Safety Cover from the USA since 1995. The cover arrives in component parts and is carefully assembled at Paramount’s premises in Hook, Hampshire. This means that every cover is tailor made to each customer’s precise specification. In addition to this Paramount also work very closely with Aquaflex Ltd who manufacture the cover material under license. Because Paramount is UK based they are able to produce a faultless bespoke cover system ready to be installed in a matter of days.
Paramount believes it is fundamental that pool dealers are helped to understand the intrinsic differences between cover systems. In principal they all do the same thing, cover the pool to make it safe and at the same time save energy and money. However, the drive system is the most important part as it ensures that the cover system operates reliably and securely. The Aquamatic system is still the only cover to offer the following components as standard:
• Dual hydraulic drive system – AQM is the only system to open and close the cover by using two independent hydraulic motors.
