What Are the Sliding Deck Pool Cover Advantages?

They Create More Space

One key advantage of owning a sliding pool deck cover is the extra space that you get back. If your mobile deck can support furniture and the weight of several people, you can use it for virtually anything that you want. The best part is that you likely won’t have to move your furniture when you want to open and close the pool.

They Can Save Energy

Sliding deck pool covers also help to prevent evaporation and keep heat from escaping. This can dramatically reduce energy costs and keep your swimming pool warm in the process.

They’re Effective

These sturdy security covers are very good at keeping unwanted guests out, and they keep out dirt and debris that change the chemistry of the water and cause stains.

They Look Nice

Sliding pool deck covers are among the most attractive, if not the most attractive, pool cover options available. When the pool is open, no one will know that your poolside deck is actually a cover. And when the pool is closed, no one will know that you have a pool!

They’re Safe

There’s almost no way (at least that we can think of) that a small child can get under the wooden deck and into the pool unless they have access to the operation panel or can move the deck. Hiding the pool may also reduce the temptation for children to try to access the pool on their own.

They Last a Long Time

An automatic sliding deck pool are sturdy and can last many years. Compare this to the vinyl used with automatic pool covers, which needs to be replaced about every five years and costs $2,000 to $4,000 each time. Solid vinyl security covers can last 6-10 years and cost $1,200-$3,000 to replace. Tarp winter covers have the shortest lifespan at only 1-3 years and cost between $75 and $225 to replace.

How Do Sliding Deck Covers Work?

These covers work on a rolling wheel system. They can be in a manual or automatic format. To work, the framework should be bolted down on a sturdy surface, such as a pre-existing deck.

Many roller decks can be outfitted with a safety stop when they sense an obstruction. You don’t have to worry about any safety hazards or people getting trapped in the deck.

There are sliding deck covers that are not operated on a rolling system, but these require a lot more work to use when you need to.

If you are worried about small children wandering into the pool, this is a safer option due to their heavy weight-bearing capabilities. When in place, the pool cover will not move, and it will provide support to walk on.

Do You Have to Make a Custom Order When Ordering a Sliding Deck Cover for Your Pool?

For the most part, yes. Since each pool is a different size and shape, there is usually a consultation to determine what is right for you.

Customization is part of the reason these covers can be so expensive.

You also have to pick out the material of the sliding deck. Many people choose to match the color they already have on their regular deck.

The deck has to match the area where it would fit in your space.

There are a few different ways to place a deck, so you would need a consultation to figure that out.

Generally, these sliding deck covers are in an H-line formation. An H-line is just a flat, retractable configuration that slides straight back and straight forward. These covers are considered a simple design.

In addition to the fit, size, shape, and material of your sliding deck, you also have to consider the various available features to decide on what is best.

For instance, you can enable a password-protected opening system that will keep your pool closed until you want it open. You can also install safety features that prevent the cover from trapping anything inside the pool or getting stuck in the cover itself.

These safety features will add to the installation price. However, you may find it is worth it for you in the long run.
