Description
The MTH rectangular OXO solar cover is made to lock the heat inside your pool. The sheet is polyethylene, 500 µm thick, and is dotted with OXO-type air chambers. It is cut precisely to the rectangular outline of the pool, and once you spread it over the water, it protects the water against both cooling and evaporation.
Two Colours for Different Needs
- Sapphire blue – provides the best thermal insulation. The chambers retain heat at night, while by day the sun's rays gently warm the water.
- Blue-black – blue on top, black and completely opaque underneath, so algae growth is strongly restricted.
Benefits of the Cover
- heat losses are reduced, especially at night
- the water heats up more efficiently, particularly with a heat pump
- evaporation almost disappears – according to the manufacturer by 98 % or more
- the water stays cleaner and fewer chemicals are used up
According to the manufacturer, the expected life of the sheet is over 6 years. In the morning the heating starts from a higher temperature, because the night has not taken away as much heat.
What OXO Is
In classic bubble covers the chambers have sharp edges and areas of thin material that cannot withstand UV and chemicals. OXO chambers have a smooth, rounded wall and therefore last considerably longer. Their geometry also provides the greatest thermal reserve.
