What is an automatic pool cover?

Automatic Pool Cover

Pool covers are as essential as having a swimming pool fence to keep kids out of your pool. A particularly easy-to-use cover design is an automatic pool cover. This is a motor-powered barrier that prevents anyone from entering your pool without supervision. There is a wide range of styles available, but most work by turning a hand crank, or turning a key, to operate the motor in order to open, or close, the vinyl-fabric cover. This is a good choice for people who use their pool frequently and want to be able to get in and out quickly and easily. Automatic covers run on a straight track that is set around the pool area. In order for this to work, however, there must enough flat deck area inside your pool safety fence to accommodate the tracking. If you have enough room and need an easy-to-use way to block off your pool and protect your family, this may be a very good choice for you.
