ENERGY SAVINGS
The Department Of Energy made in 1998 a research and the result was as follows. There are about 3 million private pools in the US, and these pools use about $ 3.5 Billion dollars a year in heating expenses. (Please contact us for copy)

The Grando poolcover
can save you up to 80% of your heating expenses and is enviromental save.

Reason for that are the following:       

*The slats are about 1 inch wide and an ½ inch thick

*Water tight sealed filled with air

*The cover floats right on the water
and that keeps the evaporation at a minimal

*Are particularly water-repellent

*Are resistant to UV light and all chemicals
used to keep the water clean

*Are hygienically safe
(documented in an independent test report)

*Do not have the problem
that they slide around or sit up on edge
as they are designed with a locking mechanism using
plastic moldings and stainless steel pins

The US Department of Energy published in 1998, that the US spends 3,5 BILLION Dollars to heat their pools. Please click US Dep of Energy below to see presentation.

This could pay for your pool maintenance, chemicals (50% less with rigid slated pool covers) etc., on which you will also save with this cover and is not included in this calculation.

Now after 7 years your pool cover paid for itself
and you will have the full savings to your advantage and our oldest still operating pool covers are more than 35 years old, before they need any replacements.
