Question 7

How easy is it to install and remove the Pool Void Covers® System?

Accepted Answer

The system has been designed to be easy to install and remove, but due to the high risk of our business – working at heights, building site requirements, working near open water – our systems are only installed by our in-house teams – who are trained professionals and had the appropriate training.

After install, the system is signed off with an Engineering Certificate.

The time to install the cover depends on the access to the pool area, and the size of the pool to be covered. Installation can take from 30 minutes for a small plunge pool to 2 hours for a larger pool.

Question 8

My pool has a rockery and feature wall around it – can you still install a Pool Void Cover® system?

Accepted Answer

The simple answer is yes, we can cover any shape pool, and any type of pool.

We have different systems to adapt to your own requirements – so if you have a feature wall, or a waterfall feature – or a large rockery alongside the pool – we can still install a system to meet your requirements.

Our in-house engineering team will review your requirements and come up with a system for you.

Question 9

Can you install onto pre-made pools (plunge pools; steel pools)?

Accepted Answer

There are a number of manufacturers of plunge style pools that have different loading requirements, and we modify our systems to meet the pool manufacturers designs.

There are some unique style of pools on the market, and some do not allow you to put any weight on the side of the pool at all. This can be an issue if you need to put scaffold over the top of your pool.

We have designed scaffold rated engineered Pool Void Covers® that are ‘floating’ and do not even physically touch your pool.
