Easy Pool Cover Devices

Sydney pool rollers are among the now popular rolling pool cover devices for swimming pools. Like all covers their main function is to keep out the sun from the water and keep it   from evaporating away. The bonus function is also to keep all debris from falling into the pool.

To date, there are several Sydney pool rollers models in the market depending on how much you can afford each model. The main point is that these pool roller covers are efficient, durable and protective enough.

Here are some of the more well-known models.

Aluminium

On top of the list is the type made of aluminium. The big selling point is that it can withstand the harsh Australian UV environment.  The makers say the big plus is that it does not have any plastic components. As is known, plastic breaks down in the intense Australian climate.

The feedback from users and owners say the roller is capable of performing against the harsh climate.  It still works even if the present temperatures are higher. There is also no loss of water due to evaporation despite the heat.

Models with plastic components could fetch a cheaper price. However, it has a shorter service life span because plastic becomes brittle when exposed to ultraviolet rays of the sun. They will then fade over time, and will eventually crack.

Steel

This model is enhanced with steel, is great-looking and works very well as promised. The design is to have a built-in drop in breaking system that maintains the roller’s position when winding the pool blanket off the pool.  

The pin is slid into the mobile position when the roller has to be wheeled away from the pool. (These are available in both the stationary and the fully mobile versions.)

Also, it is fully detachable from the roller and has a heavy duty reflective cover to protect the blanket when wound up. There is its own pull cord system which you can walk to the other end of the pool and pull the cord.

Platinum

Actually, this is simply the name of the extra tall, marine-grade anodized aluminium frames used for strength and longevity. It also has a large reflective cover to protect the solar blanket when it is wound up on the roller.

The solar blanket is detachable from the roller and can be rolled out aside. The model also has an exclusive drop pin system that stops the roll from moving when in use and can locate the roller in the exact spot.

The Sydney pool rollers blanket is connected to the roller blanket clamping the system and helps it to minimize the chances of tearing the blanket.

Mobile

This model has both nylon and stainless steel rotating casters (360 degrees) for easy use. It has an anodized frame for longevity including the handle for easy winding up the blanket.

Likewise, it also has a drop pin system that stops the roller from moving during use and locates the roller in the exact spot for easy one-person action. It has either a detachable or a cord-fitting system.
