But the ability to fit a roller is key to it being easy to live with otherwise you are down on your hands and knees to roll it up, and rolling it out also will not be easy either, and nobody wants that. For rectangle-shaped pools, an automatic pool cover with an encapsulated under track is recommended for a clean look. Freeform or irregular shaped pools can use a recessed top track or an outside track mounted along the sides of the pool. Odd shaped pools and a pool cover can go together most of the time. Double cover systems with a mechanism at each end of the pool work well for L-shaped pools. If they can’t answer these questions, maybe they do not know the product very well and you should probably look somewhere else to buy your pool cover. My advice for any customer buying a pool cover for an odd shaped pool, even online, is if you are unsure, send the seller a picture and maybe a rough sketch of the pool and ask them for their input as to whether a cover is possible and if so where the roller should stand. These will be few in number but they do exist. Also as mentioned before, there are some pool shapes for which a pool cover will not easily roll up. Swimming pool areas that are particularly tight with close in pool fences which would not allow a pool cover roller to stand in the correct position on the pool deck would be another situation where a pool roller could not be used and as a result getting a pool cover may be ill advised. This is a very valid consideration because in the vast majority of cases a pool cover will almost certainly require a roller to be attached for ease of handling unless it is particularly small. Very often the limitation on whether to get a pool cover for an odd shaped pool does not rest with the pool cover itself but whether or not a pool cover roller is needed and if so whether or not installing it is possible and also finally whether or not the shape of the pool cover will lend itself to being rolled up. We have a Safety Consultant who is ready to talk with you when you need him.It is possible to fit a pool cover for an odd shaped pool and this applies to a wide variety of pool covers on the market today.

When it comes to the automatic pool covers that are available in the Bay Area, there are real differences in product – and those differences matter. Both are good independently but together they provide a great benefit to pool owners in terms of increasing swimming pool safety. In fact, many customers purchase both an automatic pool cover and a removable pool fence from us to maximize safety. Safety experts agree that “multiple layers of protection” is the best method to secure the family swimming pool. Poolsafe offers quality retractable pool covers in the Bay Area. Due to the many additional benefits of a retractable pool cover, many people prefer an automatic pool cover to other safety options so that they can save water, save and retain heat in their pool water, and provide a real, physical barrier between the home and the pool. In any case, an automatic pool cover keeps children from the pool and secures it when you are away. Other pool owners maybe aren’t concerned about children but are concerned with security since they use the home as a second residence.
Many pool owners have small children that live in the home or that visit regularly. As convenient as that sounds, and it is, the best benefit of an automatic pool cover is the safety. A safety pool cover will keep yard debris out of the pool so that your pool is ready for you when you are ready to swim. However, some pool owners don’t enjoy the upkeep, which can be significantly reduced using an automatic pool cover. Swimming pools are so fun, beautiful, and even relaxing.
