Routine Maintenance for Automatic Pool Covers

All automatic cover manufacturers recommend routine system maintenance. Pool Cover Pros offers professional maintenance services to help ensure your cover system continues to operate safely and efficiently. We recommend scheduling a safety and maintenance inspection at least every two years.

Annual System Maintenance

Our annual system maintenance service includes a comprehensive system inspection and performance check to ensure safe, reliable operation. We review any customer concerns, evaluate the overall condition of the cover and mechanism, inspect key components for wear or malfunction, make necessary adjustments and alignments, remove debris, and test the system for proper tracking and limits. Select components may require replacement at an additional cost.

Pool Cover Cleanings

Our cover cleaning service is designed to improve the appearance and longevity of your automatic pool cover. The process includes a soap application, thorough scrubbing, and rinse to remove dirt, debris, and buildup, followed by a UV protectant treatment to help guard against sun damage. While cleanings significantly enhance the look and condition of the cover, we cannot guarantee the removal of all stains.

    Replacement Pool Covers

    Pool Cover Pros specializes in the inspection and replacement of automatic pool covers. Cover replacement is one of our most frequently requested services and is performed by our experienced technicians.

    Common signs that it may be time to replace your cover include stiff or brittle vinyl, tears, rips, or holes, weather-related damage, unexplained water pooling on the cover, or simply being ready for an upgrade. Pool Cover Pros will thoroughly inspect your existing cover and recommend replacement when necessary.

      What pool cover fabric colors are available?

      We offer eight standard colors for replacement covers. All colors perform the same and your choice will not impact performance, fading or wear and tear. While darker colors can absorb some heat, we encourage customers to select the color you prefer the most and matches your backyard color scheme.

      How long will my replacement pool cover fabric last?

      Pool cover fabric, when properly maintained and depending on environmental factors, should last, on average, 5-7 years. Improper water chemistry plays the biggest role in early deterioration.

      Fabrics that are cracked, have holes or look generally worn out should be replaced. From a distance the pool safety cover may look fine, but be unsafe.

      How much will my replacement pool cover cost?

      Replacement covers vary in price based on size and customer location. Please contact us for an estimate.

      How soon will I get my replacement pool cover after ordering?

      Every replacement cover we order is custom made for each specific job. You can expect to have your new cover installed approximately one to three weeks after placing your order.

      New Pool Construction

      Automatic pool covers are ideal for new pool construction. We encourage you to discuss your interest in an automatic cover with your pool builder early in the planning process. From there, Pool Cover Pros can coordinate directly with your builder to integrate the cover system during construction. We work closely with your builder to select the best system for your pool, offering customization options including fabric colors and design features. Our covers can be seamlessly built into vinyl, gunite, or fiberglass pools or spas of many shapes and sizes, resulting in a streamlined appearance with virtually no obstructions.

      Install on Existing Pools

      If an automatic pool cover wasn’t built into your pool, don’t worry, you still have options. While not every pool is a perfect candidate, our experienced team can install automatic pool covers on most existing pools. One of the most common considerations when installing an automatic pool cover on an existing pool is deck space. Unlike new construction, where tracks and the motor are typically built in, the tracks for an existing pool are typically mounted on the pool deck.
