1.
Start
by unpacking the cover and
placing it over the pool,
black side up, such that the
blanket is laying on the
pools water and its edges
are overlapping on to the
pool surround / deck.
2.
Feel through the
cover to the edge of the
pool and mark the outline of
the pool with chalk or a
pencil onto the blanket
allowing for any overhang
due to the pools coping /
edging.
If using a pool reel, allow
for any extra needed as per
the pool reel
instructions.
3.
Next, lay the cover out on a
flat surface and trim the
cover slightly bigger than
the marked out lines, about
3 to 6cm in fine. Discard
the off cuts and allow the blanket to rest on the water
surface. There may be some
fine trimming needed, to
make the blanket fit precisely
to the pool sides. When
fitted correctly the cover
should just fold up the
sides slightly. We will have
added a bit extra to the
cover size to allow for
this.
4.
If your pool is
fitted with water jets that
return filtered water at
surface level, then these
need to be either aimed
downwards or switched off. Surface level jets
can dump gallons of water on
top of the pool cover
causing it to become swamped
and / or push the cover
across the pool.
Additionally, if your pool
is in a particularly windy
location, or the water
circulation at the surface
is strong, then this
can also cause the cover to move
about. If this occurs on
your pool, then adding a
tether in each of the
corners will prevent this
and will hold the cover in
its desired position.
The Revolution Pool Cover is compatible with
all known deck based reel solutions.
If using a reel to stow the
blanket when not in use,
attach towing kits / reel
straps as per the
manufacturers instructions
provided with such
kits.
If using straps, then we
have found the 'mini holdon
clip' (or equivalent) works
very well at connecting
between the cover and a
strap.
Finally,
allow the 'Revolution Pool
Cover' to float on the water
surface and let it start
adding heat to your pool.
