Our Automatic Cover Installation Process

Automatic pool cover installation requires precise measurement, mechanical expertise, and integration with your pool’s electrical and automation systems. Our systematic approach ensures reliable operation, energy efficiency, and seamless integration with concrete pool construction.

System Design and Engineering
Automatic cover design begins with pool evaluation and mechanical system planning. We assess your pool’s dimensions, electrical capabilities, and automation integration for optimal system selection. Cover track placement and motor housing locations are planned for efficient operation and aesthetic integration.

Track and Motor Installation
Professional installation includes cover track mounting, motor housing placement, and electrical connections that meet Pennsylvania safety codes. Tracks are permanently mounted to pool coping with precise alignment for smooth cover operation. Motor systems include GFCI protection and emergency manual operation capabilities.

Cover Material and Fabrication
Automatic cover materials include solid vinyl, mesh, and specialty fabrics designed for motorized operation and durability. Covers are custom-measured and fabricated for your specific pool dimensions. Reinforced edges and attachment systems ensure reliable operation and long-term performance.

System Testing and Integration
Complete system testing verifies smooth operation, proper alignment, and integration with pool automation systems. We test emergency stop functions, manual operation procedures, and safety features. Integration with smartphone apps and automation systems provides convenient remote operation.

Training and Maintenance Support
Owner training includes normal operation, safety procedures, and basic maintenance requirements. We provide annual maintenance services including track cleaning, motor service, and cover inspection. Technical support ensures reliable operation throughout the cover’s 10-15 year lifespan.

Automatic Cover Types and Features

Automatic pool covers offer multiple system types and material options that provide convenience, energy savings, and safety protection. Professional selection ensures the right system for your pool design, usage patterns, and performance requirements.
