Heating Costs

Plastic bubble type pool covers are one of the most cost effective elements of any heating system addition.

Since 70% of all heat loss from a swimming pool is evaporative and convective a simple vapor barrier with an added R value such as a pool cover can cut almost all of these losses.

The Effects of Pool Covers
The net result is a savings of 65-70 % in heating costs or a much greater net gain in energy when using a solar system. Although these covers are relatively lightweight, a simple device such as a winder or deck reel for removing the cover can make the usage of a cover far easier.
