Manual pool covers are similar to automatic pool covers in that they can be used for pool safety, energy savings, heat loss reduction, and pool maintenance, however, you open and close the cover manually, either through a manual roller or pulling the cover off the pool yourself. With larger pools, you may need more than one person to take the cover on and off.
There are two types of Manual Pool Covers:
- Safety Covers
- Manual Top Track Safety Covers
- Manual Snap Down Covers
- Non-Safety Covers
- Floating Blankets
- Bubble Covers
Safety covers are for maintaining your pool as well as keeping your children and pets safe.
Non-safety covers will NOT protect your children or pets and are NOT for maintaining your pool, but are ONLY for heating purposes and will help with evaporation.
