Increases water temperature
Prevents algae proliferation
With the New EnergyGuard black thermal blanket you will maximise pool temperature while inhibiting algae growth. Thanks to this innovative, lightweight filtration material you will optimise temperature performance and save on chemicals. By improving solar energy collection and inhibiting algae growth, the material achieves the most effective balance between solar energy collection and reduction of chemicals and filtration time. This makes it the most innovative cover to date.
Selective transmission
The navy blue bubble layer of the material is designed to absorb UV and visible light vital for photosynthesis. It also allows the transmission of infrared wavelengths through the material to directly heat the water mass.
Increased solar energy collection
The selective transmission properties of the New EnergyGuard black thermal blanket increase water temperature efficiently and sustainably. Tests in the UK have shown a temperature rise of up to 5˚C, and it is believed that this figure can be as high as 7˚C in warmer climates.
Saving of chemicals and reduction of filtration time
The opacity of the material in the visible wavelengths inhibits algae growth. Also, the ability of the coating to block ultraviolet light means that less chlorine is lost due to photolysis. This results in chemical savings and reduced filtration time.
