Pool Cover: Maintain Your Water Temperature, Secure Your Pool, Prevent Evaporation

Bubble Cover or Bar Cover: How to Make the Right Choice?

A pool cover is an essential element for protecting your pool, maintaining water heat, and reducing maintenance. At Poolplanet, we offer various ranges and options of bar and bubble pool covers, suitable for all needs and budgets. Whether you're looking for a bubble cover to extend the swimming season or a bar cover for optimal safety that complies with NF P 90-308 standard, you'll find the ideal solution to equip your pool on our website.

How to choose a pool cover?

Choosing a pool cover depends on several criteria: the season, the shape and size of your pool, as well as your needs in terms of protection and safety. For summer, a bubble cover is ideal for maintaining water temperature and limiting evaporation. For maximum protection, opt for a bar cover, which ensures both safety and water quality preservation even during winterization. We offer custom-made cover models, available for delivery, that perfectly adapt to the shape of your pool. Whether it's rectangular, round, oval, etc...

What are the advantages of bubble covers?

Investing in a bubble cover is the ideal solution to reduce energy costs, limit evaporation, and keep water warm longer. Easy to use, it also protects your pool from impurities while reducing the use of chemicals.

Bubble covers offer numerous advantages.

1. Maintaining and increasing water temperature

Pool heating represents a significant expense. Thanks to its insulating effect, the bubble cover retains the heat accumulated during the day and limits nocturnal losses.

Warmer water without extra cost
Energy savings: reduces the use of a heater (heat pump, electric heater)
Extended season: enjoy pleasant water longer

2. Less evaporation, more water savings

Evaporation can lead to a loss of several centimeters of water per day, especially in summer. A bubble cover reduces this phenomenon by 80 to 90%, allowing to:

Stabilize pH and chlorine levels, reducing maintenance
Limit water waste and its environmental impact
Reduce refills and water bills

3. A cleaner pool with fewer chemicals

By forming a barrier against leaves, insects, and impurities, the bubble cover facilitates maintenance and limits the proliferation of algae and bacteria.

Healthier and more balanced water
Less cleaning and filtration needed
Reduced consumption of chlorine and anti-algae products

4. A practical and durable accessory

Light and easy to handle, the bubble cover can be installed in a few seconds, especially with a roller. Well-maintained (regular rinsing, shaded storage), its lifespan can reach 5 years.

In our bubble cover offer, we also propose a cover with special bubbles, OXO bubbles:

The advantages of the OXO bubble pool cover:

• A patented bubble design
• A real extension of your pool cover's lifespan
• Better preservation of water resources
• A significant reduction in energy consumption and treatment needed for your pool's proper functioning
• A recyclable product
• Improved performance scientifically proven

Choosing an OXO bubble cover will provide you with more comfort, aesthetics, save you money in the long term, and reduce your carbon footprint.

Bubble cover: an investment that quickly pays for itself

While its purchase may seem like an additional expense, the bubble cover is actually a smart and economical choice in the long run.

An affordable price: from €50 to €500 depending on the size and finish chosen (2 or 4 edges)
Payback in 1 to 2 seasons thanks to savings on water, electricity, and maintenance products.
A 40 to 50% reduction in heat pump operating time, lowering the energy bill.

This solution is perfectly suited for hot regions such as the south of France or the overseas territories. The bubble cover maintains heat and helps prevent any temperature loss, especially if your pool is heated. Lightweight and easy to handle, it is an ideal solution for private pools.

Why choose a bar cover?

The bar cover is a versatile safety cover, compliant with NF P 90-308 standard. Composed of a reinforced cover with rigid bars, it rests on the coping to effectively cover and protect the pool. More robust than a simple winter cover, it ensures optimal safety while preventing heat loss.

What are the advantages of a bar cover?

✔ Secures your pool all year round
✔ Easy to handle (rolls up in 3 to 4 min, compatible with automatic rollers)
✔ Reduces evaporation and maintains water temperature
✔ Prevents algae formation by blocking photosynthesis

✔ Available in different colors: blue, grey, green, beige, almond, wood, and dark grey
✔ Durable over time, tear-resistant, and aesthetically discreet
