🏊 GeoBubble Royal Blue 600M Solar Cover – Custom Size 💰

Order a custom sized GeoBubble Royal Blue 600M Solar Cover by simply entering the length and width of your pool in meters. Custom covers can take 5-7 days to be delivered as they are cut to order.

Imagine saving up to £900 annually* on heating costs while keeping your pool up to 8°C warmer. The Royal Blue 600M GeoBubble Solar Cover isn’t just a pool accessory—it’s an investment that pays for itself season after season.

💰 The Real Cost of Running Your Pool Uncovered

Let’s talk numbers. An average uncovered 4x8m pool loses:

• 32,000 litres of water per year through evaporation (that’s 400 baths going to waste)
• Up to £1,200 in heating costs annually
• 5kg of chlorine (approximately £150 worth) to chemical loss
• 7,000 kWh of electricity when using a heat pump without a cover

What if you could slash these costs by 70-98%? That’s exactly what this cover delivers.

🔥 Your Pool’s Performance Upgrade: By The Numbers

What You’re Losing Now	What This Cover Saves
98% water evaporation	Reduces evaporation by 98%+
£1,200/year heating costs	Saves up to £840/year (70% reduction)*
5kg chlorine annually	Saves 1.5kg chlorine (30% reduction)*
Constant debris cleaning	Blocks 98% of leaves, insects & dirt
Heat loss overnight	Retains up to 75% of pool heat
7,000 kWh electricity	Saves up to 4,900 kWh/year with heat pump*

*Based on average 4x8m pool, 6-month season, typical UK energy rates. See full disclaimers below.

🌡️ Why Royal Blue 600M is the Premium Choice

Maximum Thickness = Maximum Savings

At 600 microns thick, this is among the most durable solar covers available. Here’s why thickness matters:

✅ 400M covers: Budget entry point, good for 2-3 seasons
✅ 500M covers: Popular mid-range, decent heat retention
✅ 600M covers (THIS ONE): Premium durability, superior heat retention, longest lifespan (4-6 seasons with proper care)

Translation: While a 400M cover might save you £50 upfront, you’ll replace it twice as often. The 600M pays for itself through longevity alone.

Royal Blue Technology: The Science of Smart Heating

Not all colours are created equal. Here’s what Royal Blue does differently:

🔵 Optimal Light Balance

• Transmits enough UV rays to heat water naturally (up to 8°C increase in peak conditions)
• Absorbs light that causes algae growth, keeping your pool clearer
• Blocks harmful rays that degrade chemicals and damage pool surfaces

Compare this to:

• Clear covers: Maximum heating BUT accelerate chemical degradation and algae growth
• Dark covers: Block algae effectively BUT limit solar heating potential
• Royal Blue: The “Goldilocks” solution—balanced performance for real-world use

GeoBubble™ Technology: 25% Longer Lifespan

Traditional bubble covers fail at the weak points where bubbles join. GeoBubble™ solves this with:

✓ Scientifically designed bubble shape with no sharp angles
✓ Two-thirds of material thickness in the bubble itself
✓ Superior resistance to UV damage, chemicals, and oxidation
✓ Proven to last 25% longer than standard bubble covers

What this means for you: If a standard cover lasts 3 seasons, expect 4+ from GeoBubble™. That’s hundreds saved on replacement costs.

💧 Stop Throwing Money Down the Drain

The Evaporation Problem You Can’t Ignore

Every hour your pool sits uncovered, you’re losing:

• Water (money literally evaporating)
• Heat (your heating system working overtime)
• Chemicals (chlorine dissipating into thin air)

An uncovered pool in summer can lose 6-12mm of water DAILY through evaporation.

For that average 4x8m pool, that’s:

• 192-384 litres per day
• 5,760-11,520 litres per month
• 34,560-69,120 litres per season

At typical UK water rates (£1.50/1,000 litres), you’re losing £50-100 annually in water costs alone—before you even factor in the cost of heating that replacement water.

This cover reduces evaporation by 98%+, saving you £49-98/year on water alone.

⚡ Energy Savings That Add Up Fast

Scenario 1: Pool with Heat Pump

Without cover:

• Heat pump runs 8 hours/day to maintain 28°C
• 7,000 kWh consumed per season
• At £0.24/kWh = £1,680/season

With Royal Blue 600M cover:

• Heat pump runs 3-4 hours/day
• 2,100-2,800 kWh consumed per season
• At £0.24/kWh = £504-672/season
• SAVING: £1,008-1,176 per season*

Scenario 2: Pool with Gas Heater

Without cover:

• Gas consumption: ~3,000 kWh equivalent
• At current rates: £900-1,200/season

With cover:

• Gas consumption reduced by 70%
• Cost: £270-360/season
• SAVING: £630-840 per season*

Payback Period

If this cover costs £300 and saves you £800-1,100 annually, you break even in 3-4 months of the first season. Everything after that is pure profit.

🌿 Beyond Savings: Lifestyle Benefits

Less Maintenance = More Swimming

Before this cover:

• Skimming debris: 15 minutes/day
• Vacuuming bottom: 30 minutes, 2x/week
• Testing and rebalancing chemicals: 20 minutes, 2x/week
• Total: ~4 hours/week

With this cover:

• Minimal debris to skim: 5 minutes/day
• Vacuuming needed: 1x/week
• Chemical adjustments: 1x/week
• Total: ~1.5 hours/week

That’s 2.5 hours per week back in your life—130 hours per season to actually enjoy your pool instead of maintaining it.

Cleaner, Healthier Water

Debris isn’t just unsightly—it’s unhealthy:

• Organic matter (leaves, insects, bird droppings) feeds bacteria
• Contaminants consume chlorine rapidly, leaving water under-protected
• Algae finds nutrient-rich breeding grounds in dirty water

This cover blocks 98% of debris, meaning: ✅ Clearer water
✅ More stable chemistry
✅ Healthier swimming environment
✅ Less shocking and chemical corrections needed

⚠️ Important Safety Notice

THIS IS NOT A SAFETY COVER.

The Royal Blue 600M is designed for heat retention and debris protection—it cannot support the weight of children or animals.

If you have young children or pets and need safety protection, consider:

• Installing a perimeter fence around your pool
• Upgrading to a slatted automatic cover or safety cover
• Using this solar cover in combination with safety measures

Never rely on any solar bubble cover as a safety barrier.

🤔 Common Questions Answered

Q: Will this heat my pool enough to skip my heater?
A: No. While this cover can raise temperature by up to 8°C in peak sun conditions, it works best alongside a heating system. Think of it as insulation—it retains the heat your heater generates, reducing how long your heater runs by 60-70%.

Q: Can I keep it on while my pump runs?
A: Yes! Secure it properly and your pump will circulate water underneath with no issues. In fact, keeping it on while pumping maximizes heat retention.

Q: Royal Blue vs. Clear vs. Dark—which is really best?
A: It depends on your priority:

• Clear (Sol+Guard): Maximum solar heating, but less algae protection
• Dark (Energy Guard): Maximum algae prevention, but less solar heating
• Royal Blue (THIS ONE): Balanced performance—80% of the heating of clear, 80% of the algae protection of dark. Best all-rounder for most pools.

Q: What about using it in winter?
A: Don’t. Solar covers aren’t designed for harsh winter conditions. When closing your pool for winter, swap to a dedicated winter cover and store this carefully for spring.

Q: How do I know it will fit my pool?
A: This specific SKU is pre-cut for 4ft Roman end configurations. If your pool differs, use our [solar cover calculator] to get precise measurements, and we’ll create a made-to-measure cover.
