Solar Blankets | ABGAL Pool Liners

What are the benefits of an Oasis Solar Pool Cover from ABGAL?

Save water. The Oasis 400 and 500 micron varieties have been independently tested, and proven to stop up to 99.84% of evaporation.

You'll swim sooner and longer – your blanket will increase the water temperature by up to 8°C, giving you a warmer pool, for longer.

Your chemical consumption will be greatly reduced. Once a blanket is installed, we recommend that automated chlorinators be turned down by 50%.

All Oasis solar blankets are suitable for both salt water and chlorinated pools. As with all solar blankets though, it is important to keep chemical levels within the Australian Standards.

All Oasis solar blankets are specially treated to resist UV damage.

Oasis solar blankets are manufactured using the revolutionary new 'SmartBubble' profile, and carry the Smart Approved WaterMark.

Made in Australia, Oasis pool blankets are constructed from category 4 LDPE – which means that off cuts can be recycled at any plant with the capacity to recycle LDPE 4.

How does a Solar Pool Cover work?

Solar pool covers (often called pool blankets and bubble blankets) are a cost effective and convenient way to save water and heat your pool at the same time. Solar blankets are made from a film containing thousands of tiny bubbles, which work together to collect and retain heat in your pool. The blanket floats on top of the water (bubble side down) and allows solar energy to pass through - trapping and retaining the heat in your pool.

All ABGAL Oasis solar pool covers feature SmartBubble technology - the 'smartest' bubble profile on the market. Used in conjunction with a reel system, most residential pools can be covered and uncovered quickly and easily – often in around a minute.

Measuring your Pool

The blankets are supplied as a rectangular sheet and therefore need to cover the entire pool including steps. Measure the longest length and the widest width of pool (see diagrams below) to ensure you get the correct blanket for your pool at the waterline.

Commercial Pool Blankets

Reduce your pool running costs with a commercial grade pool blanket. The blanket reduces water and heat evaporation, running costs of pool environment air conditioning, and keeps the humidity to a minimum.

ABGAL blankets for commercial pools are normally supplied with reinforced edging for strength and durability. They come with a special flotation leading edge and haul cord therefore covering the pool is a hassle free operation. The blankets are supplied in modular sections up to 6 metres (20') wide hence easier to handle and storage can be on a commercial grade reel. Protective over-covers can be included as a separate piece or attached to the end of the blanket so it automatically protects when rolled onto the storage reel. There are two types available, the Oasis Solar Blanket and the HeatShield™ Thermal Pool Blanket.

Oasis Solar

The Oasis Solar commercial blanket is made from UV stabilised polyethylene film. It is lightweight, flexible and easy to store. Reinforced edges give the blanket strength for commercial applications and form a weighted edge to stabilise in windy conditions. These are ideal for pool environments where the blanket sections are quite large or the pool storage reels are manually operated by one person.
