Daisy ThermoTech Silver Thermal Pool Cover – 4.5mm Foam | $38.75 per m²

Description

The Daisy ThermoTech Silver Thermal Pool Cover is a premium 4.5mm foam insulation cover designed to help heated swimming pools maintain their temperature for longer.

By creating an insulating barrier across the water surface, the ThermoTech helps minimise heat loss and evaporation whenever your pool isn't being used. This can reduce the amount of lost heat your pool heating system needs to replace.

Unlike a traditional bubble solar pool cover, ThermoTech is primarily designed for insulation and heat retention. This makes it particularly well suited to swimming pools using a heat pump or other pool heating system.

Finished in Silver, the ThermoTech features crosslinked polyolefin foam with UV-stabilised polyethylene-based Canvacon film on both sides, providing a durable thermal cover for indoor and outdoor swimming pools.

Keep Your Heated Pool Warmer for Longer

When you're paying to heat your swimming pool, retaining that heat is an important part of keeping the overall system efficient.

Without a cover, warmth can continually escape through the exposed water surface. Evaporation, cooler overnight temperatures and windy conditions can all contribute to pool heat loss.

The Daisy ThermoTech Silver provides a 4.5mm insulating foam layer between the pool water and surrounding environment, helping slow down this heat loss when the pool isn't being used.

For pools with a heat pump, this means your heating system can focus on maintaining the desired swimming temperature rather than continually replacing unnecessary heat loss.

It's an excellent option for pool owners looking to extend their swimming season, maintain more consistent water temperatures and make better use of their existing pool heating equipment.

What We Like About the Daisy ThermoTech Silver

The ThermoTech Silver is a great choice when the goal isn't simply covering the pool, but protecting the heat you've already put into the water.

We particularly like pairing ThermoTech covers with pool heat pumps. Heating equipment can bring your pool up to temperature, while the thermal cover helps prevent that valuable warmth from escaping when swimming has finished for the day.

The 4.5mm foam construction provides a substantial insulating barrier compared with a traditional lightweight pool blanket, while the Silver finish provides another colour option within the ThermoTech range.

For regularly heated pools, longer swimming seasons and pool owners focused on heat retention, the ThermoTech Silver is a premium option worth considering.

How to measure for your Daisy pool cover

1. Measuring your pool is simply a matter of measuring the maximum water level width (W) and length (L) of the main body of water. See illustrations below
   
   
2. Using a tape measure, measure the length (L) and width (W) of your pool
   
   
3. If your pool has steps, measure the step area separately (see below)
   
   
4. If you have a uniquely shaped pool, treat it as rectangular (see below)
   
   
5. We provide all pool covers slightly ‘oversized’ to allow for trimming onsite, using your pool as a template.

FAQ's

What is the Daisy ThermoTech Silver pool cover?

The Daisy ThermoTech Silver is a 4.5mm thermal foam pool cover designed primarily to insulate swimming pools and reduce heat loss through the water surface.

It's particularly useful for pools that are actively heated and where maintaining water temperature is important.

Is the Daisy ThermoTech Silver suitable for heated pools?

Yes. Heat retention is the primary reason to choose a ThermoTech cover, making it particularly well suited to heated residential and commercial swimming pools.

Can I use a ThermoTech Silver cover with a pool heat pump?

Yes. A heat pump and thermal pool cover work particularly well together.

The heat pump heats your pool water, while the ThermoTech helps insulate the water and retain that warmth when the pool isn't being used.

Is ThermoTech the same as a solar bubble pool cover?

No. Although both types of pool cover can help reduce evaporation and heat loss, their construction and primary purposes are different.

A bubble-style solar pool cover can use solar energy to contribute to heating the water.

The ThermoTech uses 4.5mm foam insulation and is primarily designed to retain heat already generated by your pool heating system.

Why should I cover my pool overnight?

Overnight temperatures are generally cooler, which can increase heat loss from a warm swimming pool.

Keeping the ThermoTech Silver over the water when the pool isn't being used creates an insulating barrier that helps retain more of the stored heat.

Will the ThermoTech Silver reduce my pool heating costs?

Reducing heat loss can mean your pool heating system has less lost heat to replace when maintaining the desired water temperature.

Actual energy consumption and savings will vary depending on your pool size, climate, desired temperature, heating equipment and how consistently you use the cover.

Does the ThermoTech Silver help reduce water evaporation?

Yes. Covering the swimming pool significantly reduces evaporation from the water surface.

Reducing evaporation is also important for heat retention because evaporation is a major source of heat loss from swimming pools.

Can the Daisy ThermoTech Silver be used outdoors?

Yes. The ThermoTech is suitable for both indoor and outdoor swimming pools.

Should I use a pool roller with a ThermoTech cover?

We recommend pairing your ThermoTech with a suitable pool roller.

A roller makes a thermal foam cover much easier to remove, store and return to the pool, particularly on larger swimming pools. Making the cover easier to use also encourages it to be put back on whenever swimming has finished.

Is the Daisy ThermoTech Silver reversible?

The ThermoTech features UV-stabilised Canvacon material on both sides and can be reversible in suitable installations.

What warranty does the Daisy ThermoTech Silver have?

The Daisy ThermoTech Silver comes with an 8-year pro-rata warranty, subject to Daisy's applicable warranty terms and conditions.
