In the United Kingdom, maintaining a pool requires careful consideration of various factors to ensure optimal performance and cost-effectiveness. One essential component that stands out for its significant benefits is the solar blanket. This indispensable accessory offers a multitude of advantages, including solar gain, heat retention, and acting as a barrier against water loss. Investing in a high-quality and durable solar blanket can lead to substantial savings and prolonged service life, making it a wise choice for pool owners.nCertikin takes pride in offering a diverse range of solar covers designed to cater to a wide array of requirements. From the innovative GeoBubble design that boasts numerous user benefits to the time-tested industry standards of the 400 and 500 micron traditional bubble covers, Certikin ensures that there is a suitable option for every pool owner's needs.nRegardless of the specific model chosen, there are several key considerations that apply to the entire Certikin solar cover range. Firstly, all covers are meticulously manufactured at floor level to guarantee the flattest possible finish, although some minor reversion at the welded seam may be visible. For added convenience, covers up to 40’x 20’ (12m x 6m) come neatly packed in a storage bag and include a complimentary basic solar protection sheet.nShould a cover require shaping to fit a particular pool design, Certikin offers the option to have it pre-shaped in the factory for a fee or easily trimmed on-site using standard household scissors. In cases where hemming is necessary for shaped covers, providing a template or precise dimensions at the time of order ensures a perfect fit.nTo streamline the process of covering and uncovering your pool, Certikin recommends using their Aquablade towing systems when connecting your cover to a reel system. This not only ensures safe and efficient dispensing of the cover but also helps maintain the cover's longevity and performance.nIt is important to note that Certikin blankets are invoiced based on their actual square meter finished size in metric measurements, with imperial dimensions rounded up to the nearest inch for length and width accuracy. Additionally, to preserve the cover assurance, it is crucial to use the provided solar protection sheet or an equivalent, adhere to water quality standards set by SPATA, and avoid running pool water temperatures exceeding 30°C.nFor those seeking further information or specific details about Certikin's solar covers, completing an enquiry form will prompt a knowledgeable member of the Certikin team to reach out and provide personalized assistance.nWhen it comes to the specific variants of Certikin solar blankets, the 400 Micron Blanket in Blue/Blue stands out as a reliable choice.
