Solar Cover Reels



Solar pool covers save energy and water when you use them. They have to be removed before you use your pool. It can be difficult for one person to remove the cover or put it back in place. That’s why you need a solar cover reel. Solar cover reels make it easy to remove your solar cover and put it in place. They also keep the cover neatly out of the way when you aren’t using it.

There are reels available for in ground pools and above ground pools with full decks. Most reels are portable so they can be moved for winter storage. The solar cover reels keep your solar cover or blanket wrapped tightly keeping it clean and out of the way. They also extend the life of your solar cover which may be damaged by pulling or folding.

There are a number of options available for solar reels. You may choose an automatic reel. The automatic reel operates on water power. You simply hook up a garden hose to the reel and flip the lever. It takes the automatic reel about one minute to roll up your solar pool cover and the water it uses goes back into your pool. This takes all the hassle out of removing your solar cover and makes it simple to put the cover back in place when you are done.

Other reels operate with a hand crank. These are easy to use and work on any pool which has a full deck. Rolling your solar pool cover onto the reel is a snap and it can be done by any adult. No help is needed. When you put your cover away for the winter, you may also purchase a tarp which rolls around the reel and fastens to protect your solar cover from tears and damage while it is being stored.

Solar cover reels are available in a variety of sizes to fit most pools. Most reels come equipped with wheels which makes them easy to move when you want them out of the way or when it’s time to store your cover. The reels are even available for some above ground pools without decks. Solar covers can extend the season of your pool by keeping the water warmer and reels make it simple to always keep your pool covered when it’s not in use.

Most reels are made from heavy duty, light weight aluminum. Some are available in steel. Low profile reels for in ground pools will fit under most diving boards keeping the reel out of the way when the pool is in use. All reels are designed to be operated by one person making pool owners more likely to use their solar cover appropriately.

Solar pool cover reels encourage use of your solar pool cover which prevents evaporation of water and chemicals from your pool and keeps your pool warm without the use of your heater. They also keep your pool cleaner and extend the season for use of your pool. If you have a solar pool cover, shouldn’t you have a reel too?
