🏊 Why the Royal Blue 600M Is Different
The Thickest Solar Cover for Maximum Performance
At 600 microns, this is the premium-grade solar cover—significantly thicker than standard 400M or 500M options. Here’s what that extra thickness delivers:
✅ Superior Heat Retention – Raises water temperature by up to 8°C in optimal conditions
✅ 25% Longer Lifespan – GeoBubble technology outlasts standard bubble covers
✅ Enhanced Durability – Better resistance to UV damage and chemical exposure
✅ Reduced Heat Loss – Up to 75% less heat escapes overnight
The Science Behind Royal Blue
The Royal Blue color isn’t just aesthetically pleasing—it’s engineered for optimal performance:
🌡️ Balanced Transmission & Absorption
- Allows beneficial UV rays to penetrate and heat water
- Absorbs solar energy in the cover material itself
- Blocks algae-promoting light wavelengths
Compared to other colors:
- Clear covers: Maximum UV transmission but faster chemical degradation
- Dark/opaque covers: Best algae prevention but less solar heating
- Royal Blue: The goldilocks solution—excellent heating WITH algae resistance
🔬 GeoBubble™ Technology: Engineering That Lasts
Why Standard Bubble Covers Fail (And This One Doesn’t)
Traditional bubble covers have a fatal flaw: thin stress points where bubbles connect. These weak spots crack and degrade rapidly from UV exposure and chemical contact.
GeoBubble™ redesigns the bubble with a unique interconnected shape that:
- Places two-thirds of material thickness in the bubble walls
- Eliminates thin stress points that cause premature failure
- Distributes UV and chemical exposure evenly across the surface
- Resists punctures and tears from pool equipment
The result? A cover that lasts 25% longer than conventional designs, backed by a 5-year pro-rata warranty.

✅ What You Get With This Cover
Immediate Benefits
🌡️ Warmer Water, Naturally
Start swimming earlier in the season and extend your pool enjoyment into autumn. The 600M thickness provides maximum solar heat capture and retention.
💧 Stop Throwing Money Down the Drain
An average 15ft x 30ft pool loses 24,000+ litres annually through evaporation. That’s literally watching your money evaporate—along with expensive chemicals.
⚡ Slash Your Energy Bills
Running a pool heater costs £3-7 per day. This cover reduces heating time by up to 70%, meaning your heater runs for hours instead of all day.
🧪 Keep Chemicals Balanced
Evaporation doesn’t just waste water—it concentrates chemicals, forcing constant rebalancing. A covered pool maintains stable chemistry with 30% less chlorine needed.
🍂 Spend Less Time Cleaning
No more fishing out leaves, insects, or debris every morning. The cover keeps your pool pristine, reducing filter strain and maintenance time.
🛠️ How to Get the Most From Your Cover
Installation (Takes 5 Minutes)
- Unroll the cover across your pool surface
- Bubbles face DOWN toward the water (this transfers heat more efficiently)
- Trim to size if needed for a perfect fit
- Optional: Attach to a roller system for effortless removal
Daily Use Best Practices
✓ Keep it on whenever the pool isn’t in use – Even during the day if no one’s swimming
✓ Leave it on while the pump runs – It won’t interfere with circulation
✓ Leave it on while heating – The cover makes heating 50-70% more efficient
✓ Roll it up carefully – Use a roller system to prevent dragging and damage
Maintenance for Maximum Lifespan
DO:
- Remove during shock chlorination (wait until chlorine drops to 2-4 ppm before replacing)
- Keep pool chemistry balanced (pH 7.2-7.6, chlorine 2-4 ppm)
- Rinse occasionally with fresh water
- Store on a roller or in a dry location when not in season
- Check TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) levels regularly
DON’T:
- Leave on pool with chlorine above 4 ppm
- Allow pool temperature to exceed 29°C (will void warranty)
- Drag the cover across rough surfaces
- Leave it bunched up in direct sunlight
- Use it as a safety barrier (not designed to support weight)
⚠️ Important Safety Information
This cover is NOT a safety cover and cannot support the weight of children or animals.
While the 600M thickness makes this cover more robust than thinner options, it is designed for heat retention and debris protection—not safety. If safety is a concern:
- Install a perimeter fence around your pool
- Use a dedicated safety cover designed to support weight
- Never leave children or pets unsupervised near the pool
- Remove the cover completely when the pool is in use
🌍 Environmental Impact: Good for the Planet, Great for Your Conscience

CO₂ Reduction: Approximately 1,058 kg annually (equivalent to driving 2,600 fewer miles)
Water Conservation: 24,000 litres per year
Impact: Equivalent to 60 days of average household water use
By using this cover, you’re not just saving money—you’re actively reducing environmental impact through:
- Lower fossil fuel consumption for heating

🤔 Common Questions Answered
Q: How much warmer will my pool actually get?
A: In optimal conditions (sunny location, 6+ hours daily sun exposure), the Royal Blue 600M can raise water temperature by 5-8°C. Real-world results depend on your climate, pool size, and starting water temperature. Most users report 3-5°C increases as typical.
Q: Will I still need a pool heater?
A: For comfortable swimming in the UK climate, yes. This cover works best alongside a heat pump or solar heater—it makes your heating system up to 70% more efficient. Think of it as insulation that also generates some heat.
Q: Can I use this year-round?
A: No. Solar covers are designed for the swimming season (roughly April-October in the UK). When winterizing your pool, switch to a dedicated winter cover designed for harsh weather.
Q: How long will this cover last?
A: With proper care (balanced chemistry, removal during shock treatment), expect 4-6 years of reliable use. GeoBubble technology typically outlasts standard covers by 25%. The 5-year pro-rata warranty reflects this durability.
Q: What if my pool isn’t exactly 15ft x 30ft?
A: This cover can be trimmed to fit slightly smaller dimensions. For significantly different sizes, consider a made-to-measure option (use our pool cover calculator for exact measurements).
Q: Can I run my pool pump with the cover on?
A: Yes, absolutely. The cover won’t interfere with water circulation. In fact, keeping it on during pump operation is recommended to prevent debris entry.
Q: Does the color fade?
A: Some fading is normal over time with UV exposure. However, the Royal Blue color is specifically chosen for UV resistance, and fading doesn’t significantly impact performance—the material thickness and bubble structure do the real work.
