Above Ground Solar Pool Reels
Make using your solar pool cover easier and more efficient.
If you're enjoying the energy-saving benefits of a solar cover for your above ground pool, you might be wondering how to remove and replace it without the hassle. The solution? A solar cover reel system. Above ground pool solar reels make it easy to deploy or store your cover with minimal effort—no heavy lifting or awkward folding required.
How to Choose the Right Solar Reel
When shopping for a reel system, consider the following:
- Pool Size: Reels are designed for pools up to 18’, 24’, or 28’ wide.
- Cover Thickness (Mil): Be sure your reel can support your cover’s thickness—typically 8, 12, or 16 MIL.
Benefits of Solar Pool Cover Reels
- Conveniently deploy your solar cover when the pool is not in use
- Quickly uncover your pool for swimming
- Protect your cover from damage during storage
- Reduce wear and tear caused by dragging or folding
