POOL COVER

THREE QUESTIONS — YOUR PERSONAL RECOMMENDATION.
We do not give one-size-fits-all answers. Answer three questions and see which cover type truly fits your pool.
Answer the three questions on the left — we will show you the cover type that fits your pool, with an honest reason why.
NOT EVERY COVER SOLVES THE SAME PROBLEMS.
Solar foil is cheap. A thermal cover insulates well. A slatted cover does both — and adds safety. An honest overview of the market.
A thin plastic or bubble foil floating on the water surface — cut to size or off the roll.

DESIGN COVER PC SOLAR — USUALLY THE BEST CHOICE.
If you are building or modernising a high-quality outdoor pool, this is in most cases the best answer — here is why.
Transparent top + dark solar underside: the greenhouse effect heats your water passively — free of charge, every sunny day.
PC is temperature-resistant up to 120 °C (PVC only 60 °C), more impact-resistant and more hail-proof. Indispensable in hot regions — no deformation, no fading.
Anti-algae and increased UV protection are standard with us, not an option. All PC profiles come with TriEX — no surcharge. The profile stays clear long-term, algae adhesion is minimised.
On Design Cover PC we give a 5-year warranty, on PVC and Mini Cover 3 years each — well above the usual market standard of 2 years. Bindingly promised, not just advertised.
WHEN PVC OR MINI COVER IS THE RIGHT CHOICE.
Is your pool indoors, or is budget the deciding factor? Then Design Cover PVC is the economical and technically clean alternative — and for small family pools the Mini Cover is right: the same automation logic, a slimmer 3-chamber profile, fair price.

WHAT PRIVATE CUSTOMERS WANT TO KNOW FROM US.
The biggest pool heat loss comes from evaporation at the open water surface. The U.S. Department of Energy calls covering the pool the most effective measure for cutting heating costs: 50 to 70% savings are possible under optimal conditions. Solar variants additionally heat the water passively through sunlight.
Yes. Our profiles are NF- and TÜV-certified. The slats rest on a surrounding handrail at the pool edge and safely bear the weight of a falling child or a walking adult. Important: a cover increases child safety but never replaces supervision.
PC is temperature-resistant up to 120 °C, has a smoother surface, all RAL colours plus exclusive carbon-metallic and a 5-year warranty — the premium choice. PVC only up to 60 °C, 3 standard colours, 3-year warranty — the economical choice for indoor pools and tighter budgets.
Yes. The above-floor roll-up unit is the preferred retrofit solution — it needs no intervention in the pool. We check measurements and details with your dealer.
At current energy prices usually within a few years — depending on pool size, heating costs and usage. The energy check gives you an initial indication.
Carbon-metallic is reserved exclusively for the PC series. PVC cannot reliably handle dark solid colours thermally — that is why we offer it in PC only.
Configure online via the configurator (pool dimensions, profile, colour, roll-up unit) — or find a dealer in your region for on-site measurement, advice, quote and installation.
Yes. On Design Cover PC a 5-year warranty, on PVC and Mini Cover 3 years each — well above the usual market standard of 2 years. Bindingly promised, not just advertised.
For high-quality outdoor pools with design and energy ambitions: Design Cover PC (Solar). For indoor pools or budget-oriented projects: Design Cover PVC. For small family pools: Mini Cover. The selector above and the configurator give you a first recommendation in minutes.
The price depends on pool size, profile (PC, PVC or Mini Cover), colour and roll-up unit. The configurator gives you an initial indication — your dealer provides the firm quote.
Yes. Every cover is custom-made in Bad Tölz — rectangles, free-forms, integrated stairs and overflow channels included.

Yes. As an owner-run manufactory in its second generation we guarantee long-term reorder security — spare parts and service from Bad Tölz.
Our RSC control is prepared for common bus and pool systems — your dealer or electrician connects it.
The systems are low-maintenance. The smooth, self-cleaning profile shape does most of the work; an annual check keeps mechanics and seals fit.
Yes. Profiles and shaft or roll-up variants are planned around skimmers, jets and overflow channels.
Yes. The slatted roller cover is designed for year-round use — including frost, snow load and summer heat.
Slatted roller covers work best on pools with parallel edges; free-forms are solved via custom manufacture — we will tell you honestly what works.
No. We manufacture rigid slatted profiles from PC and PVC. Inflatable covers are not part of our range.
For private pool covers there are generally no nationwide subsidies; energy-related programmes change frequently — worth checking locally.
