Savings - Pool Cover Specialists Ltd.

You cannot put a price on pool safety, however whatever safety devices you install you're looking at a substantial investment. Unlike fences and alarms, automatic cover systems provide pool owners with motivational factors beyond safety to keep the pool secured. Automatic covers have the added benefit of providing a number of savings, and usually pay for themselves within the first few years of ownership.

Both indoor and outdoor swimming pools are big energy consumers. Australians and New Zealanders spend millions of dollars annually on pool heating. Much of this energy is often wasted and can be saved with proper management.

	Automatic covers function as passive solar collectors, collecting UV energy during the day and trapping that energy at night.
	Automatic covers all but eliminate evaporation. Not only is water lost, but when water evaporates from your pool expensive heat energy is lost as well--and that energy is expensive to replace. An automatic pool cover helps conserve energy.
	Automatic covers reduce chemical consumption (another bi-product of evaporation) by as much as 70%.
	The life of pool plaster, vinyl liners and filtration equipment is substantially increased on covered pools.
	Because automatic covers keep pools free of dirt, leaves and other debris, you'll spend a lot more time enjoying your pool and a lot less time cleaning your pool--or paying someone else to do it for you.
	Covers are not likely to be dismantled or removed.
	For indoor pools, automatic covers are a key system element – they reduce evaporation, condensation damage and the need for expensive ventilation systems.

Covering your pool when it's not in use is the single most effective way of reducing pool heating costs. To reduce energy bills, power companies advise fitting a cover to your swimming pool to keep it well insulated when it's not in use. It is generally acknowledged that uncovered pools double your heating requirements; instead of using 11 kW to maintain your pool temperature you will need 22 kW.

Pool covers only work when you use them. Here's where the Infinity 4000® shines. Just flip a switch, turn a key or enter your pin! In seconds the pool is covered! No lugging heavy tarps or hand cranking. You get big benefits with no effort.

Save 10 to 20 thousand litres of water this summer - a pool cover reduces evaporation by 90-95%.

Pools differ in evaporation rates due to air heat, shade, water temperature, and humidity. Arrive at your pools present rate of evaporation by marking a spot on your pool wall and observe the lower water level. Then compute the monthly savings you could achieve using an automatic pool cover.
