Solar Safety Pool Covers
We started manufacturing pool covers in February 1996 and since then have been able to market our products very successfully. We offer two Pool Cover Systems manufactured from a blue PVC fabric, which is considerably longer lasting.
The commonly known, Hook-in-System, and the Track System which runs in rails/tracks. The Track System runs in rails/tracks and offers an easy handling method as no hooks have to be opened first.
The PVC fabric used for the pool covers, is substantially more UV resistant and suited for Namibia’s harsh climate.

Safety Measures
Please remember that any pool cover tends to warm up the pool’s upper water level if not circulated. On a hot summer’s day, the upper water level can rise to between 55º – 60º celcius. It is recommended that the pump should be on during the day time in order to ensure that the pool’s water circulates, e.g. 11h00 to 17h00 in summer, in winter the pump should be on for at least one hour during midday. It is essential that the temperature in the pool never exceeds 30º celcius. Before you jump into your pool, make sure that you first put the pump on, in order to mix the upper warm water level with the rest of the pool’s water.
A POOL COVER IS NOT A PLAYGROUND! ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE POOL COVER IS CORRECTLY CLOSED!
