Unlike a simple winter cover, it can remain in place all year round. <\/p>\n<h3><strong>Safety compliant with NF P90-308 standard<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Summum Flex bar cover is an approved safety device. Correctly installed and tensioned, it supports the weight of an adult and prevents access to the pool. The composite bars rest on the coping stones: the membrane is never in direct contact with the water.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>4-season protection for the Swiss climate<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Summum Flex is specially designed for snow-covered regions. Its 580 g\/m\u00b2 PVC membrane resists UV, frost and moderate snow loads. Integrated cavities allow rainwater to drain away. You can use it in summer to protect your pool between swims, and in winter for complete winterizing.   <\/p>\n<h3><strong>Easy handling and compact storage<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The standard crank handle makes rolling up the cover effortless. Once rolled up, it remains stored at the end of the pool, ready to be redeployed in just a few minutes using the return strap. For even greater convenience, we offer iScoot motorized rollers as an option.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>Savings on maintenance and products<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>By covering your pool between swims, you limit water evaporation and reduce chemical consumption. Leaves and debris stay on the cover: your robot and filtration system work less. The result: savings on water, products and electricity.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=&#8221;Get quote for swimming pool cover&#8221; shape=&#8221;square&#8221; color=&#8221;primary&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;

The cut is made at the factory according to the dimensions of your pool. The only restriction is that it is not suitable for overflow pools.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>Can I leave the bar tarpaulin on all year round?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, that&#8217;s what it&#8217;s all about. Summum Flex is designed for 4-season use: it protects your pool in summer between swims, and acts as a winter cover in winter. All you need to do is remove the snow if the layer of snow exceeds 20 cm.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>How long does a bar tarpaulin last?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>With regular maintenance, a quality bar cover will last between 8 and 12 years. The Summum Flex comes with a 3-year manufacturer&#8217;s warranty on bars, membrane, pitons, straps and pawls. Mechanical parts (cranks, reinforcements) are guaranteed for 1 year.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>How long does it take to open or close the cover?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>With a manual crank handle, it takes 2 to 3 minutes for a 10 m pool. With an iScoot motorized roller, the operation takes less than a minute. The iScoot 710 rolls up a 10 m cover in 50 seconds.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>Does the bar cover heat the pool water?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>No, the opaque bar cover does not heat the water. It limits evaporation and maintains the existing temperature, but has no solar effect. To heat your pool passively, opt for a <em>bubble cover<\/em> or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.astro-piscines.ch\/en\/swimming-pool-equipment-geneva-vaud-pump-heating-and-cover\/couverture-piscine\/volet-hors-sol-piscine-geneve-vaud\/\"><em>cover with solar polycarbonate blades<\/em>.<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1765122949167{background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] Pool covers with bars in Geneva and Vaud: 4-season safety [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]The bar cover is the most versatile cover solution for protecting your pool in summer and winter alike.
