GeoBubble Sol Guard 500

Solguard 500 geobubble comes with a 6-year warranty! So what is GeoBubble?

Geo bubble is only available in three styles Sol-guard 500, Energy Guard 500 and Cool Guard. Made by Plastipack the leading UK manufacturer of Solar Covers to the UK and Europe, the Geobubble design is a unique bubble shape that has been scientifically designed to increase the expected lifespan of swimming pool solar cover material by up to 25%. So confident are Plastipack in this cover they are offering an unprecedented 6 years warranty!! With the introduction of Geobubble the standard sol-guard 500 and Energy Guard 500 will no longer be available although some limited stocks are available from this website.

Geobubble Technology: Swimming pool covers are exposed to high Ultra Violet (UV) radiation and chemical attack. Geo Bubble has been designed specifically for use in this environment to help make it resistant against these attacks. This makes Geobubble ideal for warmer countries such as Portugal and Spain. Traditional solar covers have several inherent weaknesses in their design, including thin points and high residual stress. Thin points in a bubble design are weak points, which are quickly broken down by UV and chemical attack. The degradation process is accelerated in areas of high stress, as these areas are under constant strain. These factors result in the bubble material breaking down, and ultimately, premature failure of the swimming pool cover.

Sol Guard 500 GeoBubble is unique because it has a patented design of two bubbles joined together by a waistline centre section, No sharp corners resulting in no thin or weak points in the design and the material contains no stress due to the smooth interconnected curves. The overall thickness of a GeoBubble is 50% more than a traditional solar cover. Solguard 500 has increased resilience against UV and chemical attack. Why does GeoBubble have a large footprint?

This new solar cover has a much larger footprint than most traditional solar cover materials to allow for expansion of air in the bubble shape. The stiff waistline section makes the bubble strong enough to hold expanding air and will not stretch and burst under pressure. The large footprint also acts as an insulator, retaining heat in the swimming pool, plus helps the solar cover stick to the water so it cannot be blown off the pool.

The GeoBubble Sol Guard 500 has a unique two ply combination, a clear top surface and a translucent tinted underside that gives the Geobubble SolGuard swimming pool cover the ability to provide a variety of benefits:

• Increase pool temperature by up to 8°C
• GeoBubble technology
• Reduce chemical consumption by up to 40%
• Reduce energy consumption by up to 70%
• Eliminate water evaporation by 98% +
• Reduce debris contamination
• Save money
• 6 year + expected lifespan
• Reduce the carbon footprint of your pool
