16-18 oz. vinyl, reinforced with high strength Dacron mesh.

passive solar collector that will raise the water temperature
6 to 10 degrees on the average.

IS THE POOL COVER A SAFETY COVER?

Pool Cover System is your family's safety.
ARE THE SYSTEMS ASTM and AFNOR APPROVED?
Yes, the Hydramatic and EZ-Cover pool cover
systems have been tested by UL and exceed the ASTM F1346-91. Additionally,
these covers also exceed the Afnor NF-P90-308 for France.
DO I STILL ADD CHEMICALS THE SAME WAY?
Yes, but the chemicals needed to sanitize your
pool should be cut in half by using the AquaMatic Pool Cover System.
ARE THERE ANY CONCERNS WITH A SALT POOL?
With pools using salt water chlorination, when the cover is retracted off of the pool, residual water will run off of the cover and onto some of the peripheral components in the cover recess. When this water evaporates, it will leave behind a pure salt residue. This salt residue can corrode these components (we all know what salt does to cars!) and any damaged caused from salt pools is NOT covered under the limited warranty. To reduce the chance of corrosion, we recommend that you scrub and hose (with fresh water) your mechanism down at least on a monthly basis.
DO THE POOL COVERS COME WITH A WARRANTY?
Yes, the AquaMatic Pool Cover System has the
best warranty in the industry, twenty years on the mechanism and
seven years on the fabric. Hydraulic systems only.
SHOULD I REMOVE RAINWATER FROM MY POOL
COVER?
Most Hydramatic automatic pool covers are equipped with a built-in rainwater removal feature. A combination zipper and/or screen will act as the bailing device while the cover is being opened. This feature should be adequate for most situations, however for excessive water, an automated cover pump is included with both the Hydramatic automatic and EZ-Cover manual system.
SHOULD I CONTINUE TO USE MY AUTOMATIC
POOL CLEANER?
That depends. You may feel your AquaMatic pool
cover keeps dirt and debris out of the pool, so you may need you
pool cleaner on a limited basis.
CAN MY FILTER BE OPERATED LESS OFTEN?
Yes, you can save 30 to 60% on your electric
costs in operating the pool.
WILL THE POOL COVER STOP AUTOMATICALLY?
Yes, AquaMatic is the only pool cover with
a self-stopping limit as a standard feature. This prevents the
pool cover from over tracking which can cause damage to the cover.
CAN I PREVENT THE COVER FROM BEING
OPERATED WHEN I'M NOT AROUND?
Yes, the AquaMatic cover is controlled with
a key operated on/off switch. Just remove the key to secure the
cover in a closed position.
DOES THE AQUAMATIC COVER HAVE WHEELS?
No, the AquaMatic pool cover has a technologically
advanced and patented slide system, which eliminates wear and
tear on the cover.
IS THE AQUAMATIC COVER THE BEST AUTOMATIC
POOL COVER AVAILABLE TODAY?
YES, BASED ON:
- STANDARD FEATURES
- MATERIAL USED
- PRODUCT RELIABILITY
- PRICE
