liquid pool covers and swim jet systems

Postby Johnduthie » Mon 30 Apr, 2018 06:28

My pool designer says I cannot use a liquid pool cover in conjunction with a swim jet system.

I thought the liquid pool cover floats to the top, and forms a barrier. When I use the swim jets this interferes with the barrier, however, the liquid cover returns back to normal once the water has time to settle.

I would only use the swim jets for maximum 30 minutes a day, and 23 hours 30 minutes, I want my lap pool to have a liquid cover to prevent heat loss.

Can anyone help me with this?

Liquid pool covers, Yuk, coats the filters and makes a mess of everything. The idea does work but nowhere near as well as a thermal cover. There isn't a solution in a bottle for your situation
