Automatic Pool Covers

Safety & Convenience at the Push of a Button

Imagine covering and uncovering your pool with a simple turn of a key or push of a button. Automatic pool covers provide unmatched convenience and protection, keeping your water clean, your family safe and your energy bills low. Pools of Fun specializes in custom automatic cover installations and tune-ups, helping Indiana homeowners get the most out of their pools with minimal effort.

What Is an Automatic Pool Cover?

An automatic pool cover is a retractable vinyl or fabric cover housed in a discreet track system along your pool’s perimeter. Operated by a motor, the cover slides on and off the pool quickly, sealing it securely when not in use. Automatic covers are designed to support weight in an emergency, reduce evaporation and keep debris out. They integrate seamlessly with your pool’s design and require minimal effort to operate—making everyday pool management simple and stress‑free.

Types & Custom Options

Automatic covers are customized for your pool’s size and shape:

Standard Rectangular Covers

 Ideal for rectangular pools, with tracks mounted on deck or recessed under coping for a cleaner look.

 

Free‑Form & Custom Shapes

With creative track configurations, automatic covers can accommodate many free‑form pools, integrating guides into the deck.

Under‑Track & Top‑Track Systems

Under‑track systems hide the tracks below the coping for a seamless appearance, while top‑track systems mount on the pool deck and are perfect for retrofitting existing pools.

Custom Material & Color Choices

Choose from durable fabrics in various colours to match your design aesthetic.

Integrated Spa Covers

Some systems allow separate covers for integrated spas or attached hot tubs.

Solar-Ready Fabrics

Certain covers also provide solar heat gain, warming the water naturally.

Our team will evaluate your pool’s design and recommend the right style to deliver maximum benefits and a flawless fit.

Installation & Operation

01

Consultation & Measurement

We measure your pool’s dimensions, discuss track placement options and explain how the system integrates with your deck and coping.

02

Track & Housing Installation

Tracks are installed on the deck or recessed under the coping. The cover’s motor and housing are discretely mounted at one end of the pool.

03

Cover Fabrication

A cover is custom‑cut to your pool’s exact measurements for a perfect seal.

04

Cover Placement & Testing

We install the fabric on the tracks, connect the motor, test operation, adjust tension and ensure smooth movement.

05

Training & Maintenance Tips

We show you how to open and close your cover safely, what to watch for in operation, and how to clean and care for the fabric.

To operate, simply turn a key or press a button. The motor unwinds the cover across the pool for secure closure and retracts it out of view when you’re ready to swim.

Maintenance & Tune‑Up Services

An automatic cover requires regular care to operate safely and efficiently:  

  • Annual Tune‑Ups: We inspect the motor, gearbox, ropes, reels and tracks; we make tension adjustments, lubricate moving parts and ensure the cover opens and closes smoothly.
  • Fabric Cleaning: We recommend periodic cleaning with gentle soap and water to remove dirt, chemicals and debris that can degrade the fabric.
  • Track & Guide Maintenance: Keeping tracks clear of debris prevents jams; our tune‑ups include track inspection and alignment.
  • Repairs: If the cover shows signs of wear—like frayed ropes, torn fabric or stalling motor—we repair or replace components to maintain safe operation.
  • Replacement Covers: Over time, fabrics wear out. We offer replacement covers custom‑fit to your system’s existing tracks and housing.

Our maintenance services ensure your automatic cover continues to perform reliably, protecting your pool and family.

FAQs About Automatic Pool Covers

How long does an automatic cover last?

With proper care and maintenance, the cover fabric lasts 5–7 years; mechanical components often last longer. Regular tune‑ups extend its lifespan.

Yes. Most pools can be retrofitted with top‑track systems. We’ll assess your deck and coping to determine the best configuration.

Automatic covers provide a safety barrier but are not designed for regular foot traffic. They will hold weight in emergencies, but standing or playing on the cover is not recommended.

Most systems work for pools up to 24 feet wide; custom solutions may accommodate larger pools.

Automatic covers can be used year‑round for daily protection, but depending on your climate, a separate winter cover may be recommended for off‑season closure.
