The Bestselling Pool Covers
We have compiled the most popular pool covers for you in this bestseller list.
Pool Cover Checklist
- The classic variant is a tarpaulin that is placed over the pool. Tarps made of polyethylene are particularly robust and can provide reliable winter protection even in sub-zero temperatures.
- Arched covers are similar to a tent. They have the advantage of preventing rain from collecting on the cover, as water always drains off to the side.
- Canopies are the most stable, but also the most expensive option.
- Common covers are not an official safety device. Especially for children, care must be taken to ensure that there is no risk of accidentally falling into the pool.
- Nonetheless, lockable canopies or electronically retractable covers offer a high degree of safety in terms of drowning hazards. The same applies to arched covers, which can be secured with a lock.
- Canopies can use lockable doors to secure the pool.
- An insulation function ensures that the pool loses as little temperature as possible when not in use.
- An electronic roll-up feature makes it easier to cover the pool, which would otherwise be very difficult to do alone.
- Solar tarps can insulate the water temperature so that the water in the pool can be kept warm for a longer period of time.

FAQ For Pool Covers
Which pool cover is the best depends on individual preferences and the type of pool. A pool that will not be used year-round or can be set up and taken down does not need an expensive roof, a tarp will suffice.
A pool cover keeps dirt and other particles out of the water, making maintenance easier. There are also special covers that have an insulating function. Other models also reduce evaporation and provide warmer water.
A pool cover keeps dirt, rain and snow out of the pool water and – depending on the design – can also ensure that the water is warmed or that less water evaporates.
The cost of a pool cover depends on the model and pool type, as well as the size. Tarps are much cheaper than roll-up versions with an electric motor or enclosures. The latter cost several thousand euros. However, inexpensive cover tarpaulins are available from about 39 euros.
Building a pool cover yourself is very laborious and requires a lot of know-how. We recommend a pool cover built by professionals. You can find a safe selection in our product recommendations.
