Any discriminating pool owner realizes that not all pool covers and fences are created equal. In a virtual “sea” of choices, pool industry leader LOOP-LOC perfected its covers and fences—and offers information on how to maximize their use in their very own Pool Owner’s Survival Guide. Here are a few takeaways.
The company’s pool covers exceed federal standards. Obviously, pool owners hold their family, friends, and pets in the highest regard—and their safety is of the utmost concern. LOOP-LOC pool covers meet and exceed ASTM standards for Safety Swimming Pool Covers F 1346-91. As an added safety measure, they underwent extensive outside testing through Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.) and earned the U.L. seal of approval for safety swimming pool covers.
There are many steps taken to ensure these covers will properly protect the pool when it is not in use. No matter if you choose the Super Dense Mesh with enhanced UV properties or the Aqua-Xtreme with a new unique weave to block virtually all sunlight while draining super-fast, these mesh type covers are all made with strong, durable materials. Looking for a solid version, Ultra-loc III covers are constructed with high adhesion coasted vinyl with a woven rip-stop scrim – offering enhanced UV and mildew properties.
Then, LOOP-LOC uses the CABLE-LOC™, and patented GAPGUARD® and PROTECT-A-GAP™ Child Safety Intrusion Barriers to close the gap created when a pool includes raised obstructions located at the cover’s edge. There’s no need to worry if you have added treatments to your pool such as steps, tanning ledges, raised decks, waterfalls, rock treatments, or raised spas—these covers will shield and protect these features, or any obstruction that is more than 9 inches high, when you do not want a two-cover treatment. Dirt and debris will not enter the pool because these treatments close the gaps and make it impossible for someone or something to gain entry at the water’s edge.
A pool fence offers an additional layer of protection to give pool owners peace of mind that no one—or nothing—will access the pool when it is not in use. A removable fence is a wonderful option because it can easily be taken up or down, then stored until you are ready to use it again. LOOP-LOC’s removable mesh fence is constructed of a high-quality, poly-coated, open-weave mesh fabric that exhibits high tensile strength and excellent UV stability. It also has an optional self-latching and self-closing gate, as well as a unique latching mechanism that requires very little force to secure and is easily adjustable. It can also be locked with a key if you choose to!
Another perk to this removable fence is that it can be customized for any type of pool, regardless of its shape or size. It works with pool amenities and can accommodate outdoor landscaping. Feel free to be creative when it comes to planting trees, shrubs, and flowers—the removable fencing will not interfere with your finished yard!
