Automatic covers
Push-button covers that secure the pool in seconds and double as a safety barrier.
The right pool cover saves energy, keeps water clean, and adds a layer of safety. WETYR Pools supplies and installs covers for new and existing pools.
A quality pool cover does real work. It cuts evaporation and heat loss, keeps debris out, reduces chemical use, and a true safety cover adds a barrier that protects children and pets. We help you choose between automatic, safety, solar, and mesh covers and install them correctly.
WETYR Pools handles pool covers as a craftsman-led, design-build team. The people who plan your project are the people who build it and stand behind it, with no quality lost in the handoffs between separate companies. One team, one standard, and one point of accountability from the first conversation through long-term care.
A pool cover is the least glamorous thing in this catalog and, dollar for dollar, one of the most useful. It is easy to dismiss as an accessory, but a quality cover quietly does several jobs at once, every hour it is closed, and it keeps doing them for years. It is the rare pool purchase that pays the owner back rather than simply costing them.
Consider what an open, uncovered pool does around the clock. It evaporates water into the air, and every gallon that evaporates carries heat and treated chemistry away with it. It collects leaves, dust, pollen, and debris. It bakes off sanitizer in the sun. And it sits as an open body of water with no barrier over it. A cover addresses all of that at once: it slows evaporation and heat loss, keeps debris out, cuts the chemical demand, and, in the case of a true safety cover, places a barrier over the water.
WETYR Pools supplies and installs covers for new and existing pools, and just as importantly, we help you choose the right type. Covers are not interchangeable, and the best one for a given pool depends on what the owner most wants it to do. Picking the right cover is half the value, and we make sure that decision is made well.

Anchored covers rated to hold weight, adding protection for children and pets.
Covers cut evaporation, heat loss, and chemical use, lowering running costs.
Keeping debris out means less cleaning and more swim time.
The word cover hides several very different products. Understanding the difference is the key to getting one that actually solves your problem.
An automatic cover rolls over the pool at the push of a button, securing the water in seconds. It is the most convenient option by far, it is highly effective at saving energy and keeping debris out, and a properly installed automatic cover also serves as a strong safety barrier. It is easiest to integrate when planned with the pool.
A true safety cover anchors firmly to the deck and is rated to hold significant weight, creating a genuine barrier over the water that protects children and pets. This is the cover to choose when safety is the priority, and it doubles as excellent debris and seasonal protection.
A solar cover floats on the surface and uses the sun to add and hold warmth, extending the comfortable swim season and reducing heat loss overnight. It is excellent for energy and temperature, but it is not a safety device and should never be treated as one.
Mesh covers are anchored covers that keep debris out while letting rain pass through, ideal for protecting a pool during periods of low use. We help match the cover style to how and when your pool actually gets used.
The case for a pool cover is mostly an economic one, and it is stronger than most homeowners expect. Evaporation is the single largest source of energy loss in a pool. Every time water evaporates it takes heat with it, which means a heater works harder, and it takes treated water with it, which means more top-up water and more chemicals. A cover dramatically slows that evaporation whenever it is closed.
The savings stack up across several lines at once. Less evaporation means less water replaced and less heat lost, so a heated pool costs noticeably less to keep warm. Less sun reaching the water means sanitizer is not burned off as quickly, so chemical use drops. Less debris falling in means less filter run time and less cleaning. Individually each saving is modest; together, over a full year, they are significant, and they recur every year the cover is used.
A cover also protects the things you have already paid for. Balanced water and a clean pool take effort and money to achieve, and a cover holds onto both. For a pool that sits unused for stretches, whether seasonally or while you travel, a cover is the difference between returning to a clean pool and returning to a recovery project.
When safety is the reason for a cover, the distinction between cover types is not a detail, it is everything. A true safety cover anchors to the deck and is rated to hold weight; a solar cover or a basic floating cover is not a safety device and can in fact be hazardous if mistaken for one. WETYR Pools is always direct about this. If protecting children and pets is your goal, we will steer you to a genuine safety cover, and we treat a cover as one layer of protection alongside fencing and alarms, never as a substitute for supervision.
Fit matters too. Automatic covers perform best and look cleanest when they are planned with the pool, because the housing and tracks can be designed into the structure. That said, many cover types retrofit well to existing pools, and even automatic covers can often be added. We assess the pool's shape, size, deck, and surroundings and recommend the cover that will fit and function properly, rather than forcing a product that does not suit it.
Every cover we supply is installed correctly and presented with clear, upfront pricing. A cover is a small project with an outsized return, and getting the type and the fit right is exactly the kind of decision a one-team builder should help you make well.
Clear answers to the questions homeowners ask most.
Yes. Evaporation is the largest source of energy loss in a pool, and a cover slows it whenever it is closed. That means less heat lost, less water and chemicals replaced, and less filter run time. The savings are modest individually but significant over a full year.
Only a true safety cover is. It anchors to the deck and is rated to hold weight, creating a genuine barrier over the water. Solar covers and basic floating covers are not safety devices and should never be treated as one.
Most covers can. Many types retrofit well, and even automatic covers can often be added to an existing pool, though they integrate most cleanly when planned with the build. We assess your pool's shape, deck, and surroundings to recommend the right fit.
An automatic cover is by far the most convenient. It rolls over the pool at the push of a button, securing the water in seconds, and a properly installed automatic cover also works as a strong safety barrier.
Yes. A cover reduces overnight heat loss, and a solar cover actively uses the sun to add and hold warmth. Pairing a cover with solar heating is one of the most effective ways to extend a comfortable swim season.
Definitely. A cover keeps leaves, dust, pollen, and debris out of the water, which means less cleaning, less filter run time, and more time actually swimming. For pools that sit unused at times, it prevents a clean pool from becoming a recovery project.
