We would always recommend using a swimming pool cover to keep your pool safe and in excellent condition, but knowing which one you need can be tricky. Our safety pool covers are designed to withstand additional weight, making them the ideal choice if you’re worried about pets or children falling into the water, or even heavy snowfall, which could damage or upset the chemical balance of your pool.

Enhance safety and protect your pool with a swimming pool safety cover.
As much as our swimming pools are a source of joy, exercise, and enjoyment, they can also pose dangers if not properly cared for and accessorised – especially concerning young children and pets.
Investing in a pool safety cover is an indispensable purchase that will give you absolute peace of mind, helping prevent potentially serious accidents from falls into the pool.
Do I need a swimming pool safety cover?
Swimming pool covers are your first line of defence against the outside world and potential pool contaminants. Among all the cover types, you might decide a safety pool cover is the best choice, as they offer several benefits, including:
- Keeping out debris and helping to prevent algae growth.
- Conserving heat and helping retain chemicals by preventing evaporation.
- Protecting pets and people from falling into the water, ensuring the utmost levels of safety.
If you are concerned about anyone accidentally falling into your pool, a safety cover (whether automatic or manual) will likely be your number one pool cover choice.
If you feel you don’t need additional safety measures, you may not require a safety pool cover. When your pool is in use, you might prefer a solar swimming pool cover, which will also protect your pool from debris and enhance heat retention.
In the off-season, you’ll likely benefit from a winter swimming pool cover, as these can better protect your pool against harsher weather.
