In the Northern Hemisphere, Summer is on its way and for pool owners that can only mean one thing – it’s time to dust off the brushes and gather the pool chemicals ready to open up…
The highest saving all-round cover
Maximising pool temperatures and inhibiting algae growth at the same time is now possible with the award-winning summer and winter pool cover material, meaning there is no need to compromise between temperature and chemical savings.

Selective Transmission
EnergyGuard™ Selective Transmission’s unique pigment technology works as a long pass filter keeping transparency in the Near Infrared allowing for free solar energy to pass through the cover to heat the pool while absorbing visible light and radiating this to the water’s surface. Offering up to 60% reductions in energy consumption and up to 7°C temperature increases.
Performance Case Studies
A pool cover for all seasons
Algae Inhibition
Effective against algae growth, the patented EnergyGuard™ Selective Transmission is an effective summer and winter cover. Using unique pigment technology, the cover filters solar radiation, blocking wavelength responsible for photosynthesis. Providing excellent solar heating and algae control makes an efficient all-season cover. Reducing summer running costs and safe in the knowledge that cleaning your pool at the start of the summer will be a breeze.
The picture to the right shows two of our test pools at the start of the season. One had been covered with EnergyGuard™ Selective Transmission for the winter, the other with a standard cover.
Preserving a vital resource
Water is increasingly an unpredictable resource in availability and cost. GeoBubble™ technology pool covers work as a physical barrier reducing losses by up to 98%, preserving a vital resource and preventing evaporative cooling. Across the life span of the EnergyGuard™ Selective Transmission cover this saving has the potential to save an average of 25,000L per m² of material.
Potential savings of up to 0m³ per m² of pool cover
Carbon Savings
Potential savings of up to 0KgCO₂ per m²
EnergyGuard™ Selective transmission’s unique features combine to provide a cover with the highest all-round savings of the high-performance Guard range, offering returns on the cover’s investment within the first year of use. The cover’s impact on a pool is no more clearly demonstrated then by our LCA showing the net benefit in potential carbon reductions of using the high performance EnergyGuard™ Selective Transmission.
Save more for longer
It is the aim of our Guard high performance material to offer the highest performance at their specific functions for the longest lifespan possible.
EnergyGuard™ Selective Transmission has an 8-year expected lifespan on domestic pools. The UV protection formulated to ensure the materials withstand exposure to the harsh pool environment. We continuously test within our own accelerated weathering machine to ensure the product’s longevity. Our own lab testing is backed up by feedback from customers around the world.
Spring time start up revealed clear water with just a few leaves to clear away
Checked under Pool cover the other day and all superbly clear and ready for a swift opening when things get a little warmer…..unbelievable!
This year has been a dream, thanks to my new [EnergyGuard™ Selective Transmission] GeoBubble™ pool cover. Spring time start up revealed clear water with just a few leaves to clear away.
