Swimming Pool Cover - Manufacturers, Suppliers & Exporters

600 micron pool cover 01Many people consider using pool covers for their inground or above ground pool (or spa) as it increases the value and return on your investment. When your pool cover is fitted, make sure the pool size is measured properly and the cover cut in properly so there are no gaps. It is common to make a pool cover up to 75 mm larger on each side so it forms a lip around the entire edge. Gaps in the edging will reduce the overall efficiency that the pool cover can offer.

When using the pool, make sure the pool cover is stored away from sunlight and rolled up properly. The added expense of a pool roller will not onlyhelp your pool blanket last longer, but it also makes removal and refitting a lot easier.


Lastly make sure your chemical levels are not allowed to go too high, as prolonged exposed to high chemical levels will shorten the life of all pool covers. Chlorine levels should not exceed 1.5 to 2.0 ppm for unstabilised pools and 3.0 ppm for stabilised pools (source SPASA pool cover fact sheet,http://www.spasa.org.au/images/stories/SPASA/factsheets/2014facts/FS6.pdf) . Also never super chlorinate with the pool cover on, leave the cover off until level return to normal. Automatic chlorine dosers should also be run at a reduced rate.

Clean Your Tank Regularly - Your Rain Water Tank

Picture

Fix Leaks : As rain water tank get older they can to form cracks and leak. This can arise from ground movements or structural defects like rust (in the case of steel tanks). When fixing a tank, there are only a few methods that can be considered:


Application of a sealant

pros – inexpensive for concrete tanks if done properly and is some cases the water won’t need to be drained before application.

cons – will not generally work on poly tanks, and needs to be flexible to accommodate tank movement.

Welding (plastic or steel)

pros – This is an effective way to repair poly tanks, as done properly the weld is about as strong as the original plastic.

cons – need to remove water to make repairs, and join strength is dependent on the skill of the operator.

Use of a tank liner

pros – very flexible and will move accommodate ground movements easily. Custom made to fit any tank. Usually comes with a 10yr guarantee. Will fit any almost any tank that is still structurally sound. Does not usually need the same level of preparation as applied coatings do. Also if you can get inside the tank, you can usually install the liner yourself.

cons – you will have to empty the tank. Must be careful with abrasive surfaces as it is possible to puncture lining.

Tank Liners for Water and Other Liquid Storage

Tank liner a such as PVC, Polyethylene and Polypropylene are designed to be used in tanks where the primary application is the storage of drinking water, and can also be manufactured to be used in other applications such as irrigation, rainwater collection, grey water, sewerage and stock water.  The great news is that once a liner has been installed, you only need to access the tank every year or two for cleaning and maintenance (as is standard with all tanks, regardless of if they have a liner or not).
Domestic water storage is becoming a necessity for many households due to natural occurrences such as droughts. As this is the case water tanks are fast becoming the norm for rural and domestic properties where town water is limited. The most common tanks used for this application are concrete, poly and corrugated steel tanks. Tanks however are suspect to leaks due to cracking and holes, and while welding and patching can temporarily fix the issue, more than likely more leaks and cracks will develop in the tank over time.
Due to this very reason, tank liners are the best and most cost effective solution to fixing these issues. Tank liners are designed to fix not only current leaks and holes, but also leaks and holes which will most likely develop as the tank is used more. Liners are manufactured oversize to allow for any change in the shape of the tank shell, and liners will last for a period of approximately 15 years (depending on the quality of the material being used).

Time to get your Swimming Pool Ready 2 simple things you should do with any swimming pool


LOGO
Winter is definitely gone and summer is soon to be here. If you have a Pool Cover  now is the time to prepare it for the heavy use of summer. There is nothing like the joy that having a swimming pool in your own backyard can bring. Not only can you cool down on hot days, but they enhance the look of your backyard. But swimming pools can be expensive to maintain, especially when the chemistry gets out of balance. Before you dive on in, thereThese are 2 basic things you can do to maintain a healthy swimming pool and reduce the time you looking after it.

Chemical Balance:

The most important aspect of any swimming pool is to keep all the chemicals in check and at optimum levels. Maintenance need not be time consuming either, and should only take a few minutes each day. To ensure the right pool chemical balance,
pool_blanket

Daily (around 5mins when all is good with the pool)
  1. check that the water is crystal clear
  2. check there is no build up of algae. Especially check around ‘dead’ areas like pool steps where water flow isn’t as great.
  3. check there is a good flow from the water jets
  4. check there is a good flow of water in the skimmer
  5. check there is no excess leaves or other debris in the pool
  6. make sure there is correct pressure in the pool filter
Twice A Week (around 30 mins)
  1. measure chlorine, pH and stabiliser levels
  2. clean out the skimmer
  3. brush the sides and bottom of the pool
Weekly
  1. dose of phosphate remover
 Monthly
  1. professional check on water levels by local pool shop
Regular maintenance will prevent the need for pool “shocking” and actually save you a lot of time in the long run buy addressing problems before they get out of hand. When the pool balance gets too far out and you have to pool “Shock”, you have to wait at least 1 day before you can swim, so regular checking of chemical levels means your pool is not only always ready for fun, but your chemical usage is at its minimum (which is good for your health too!). A quick brush of the pool surface once or twice a week also removes build up more easily that if it is left harden over time.
