The best pool covers and covers for 2022

Summer, hot rays of the sun, warm wind and hot air. At such a time, you really want to swim, but there may not be any nearby reservoirs or they are completely unsuitable for swimming. Here "the pool comes to the rescue", where you can cool off and swim to your heart's content. However, the pool requires special attention, namely: the surface on which the “water tank” stands must be flat and covered with a special litter, and a “cape” is required outside so that the water does not turn green and leaves and dirt do not get into it.

You need to decide which pool you have, because for each category there are specific tents with bedding.

Types of pools

• Stationary - the most durable and durable type. The frame itself is in a kind of concrete sarcophagus. Construction and further maintenance is not cheap at all, and not everyone is suitable because of the large dimensions.
• Inflatable - they are also called portable, as they are very easy to carry from one place to another. However, this design does not last long. Firstly, the walls themselves are soft, without support - one awkward movement and the flood is guaranteed. Secondly, a careful attitude to this species is required (it is especially important to ensure that the pebbles do not fall under the bottom). But the democratic cost cannot but please summer residents.
• Frame - the most convenient and popular type. It is distinguished by its special strength, as well as the fact that it can be transferred, like an inflatable one, but the material is stronger.

Bedding, as one could understand, is needed only for inflatable and frame pools. Awnings are required for all types. Let's take a look at their main categories.

Types of awnings

• Air bubble film - consists of 2 layers (bubbles and a layer of polyethylene). It is a favorite with many summer residents because of its versatility, durability, ease of use. It also helps keep the water warm.
• PVC is a reinforcing mesh with a polyvinyl chloride coating, which is varnished on top (Teflon or acrylic). It is difficult to pull such an awning over the bowl on your own, and the material is capricious in storage.
• Louvering coating - consists of solid PVC and is much safer than other coatings. Ease of use is also present;
• Polypropylene laminated fabric is durable and waterproof. The main advantage is the low cost.

Let's move on to our ranking of the best bedding and awnings for each type of pool separately.

For a stationary pool, only an awning is needed so that dirt and dust do not get into the water when no one is swimming.

What to look for when choosing?

1. To what type of pool does this or that product belong. For stationary, for example, awnings can be attached directly to the base of the pool itself, that is, you do not have to remove and reattach it each time, but there are no such awnings for inflatable ones.
2. Dimensions so that the awning is fully sized for the bowl.
3. Material quality.

Mostly the same manufacturers are represented in the rating, since their goods are very popular on the market. Other companies, if they offer awnings or bedding, then in limited quantities, and you can not buy them in all online stores.
