About this episode
Automatic pool covers have long been associated with safety, but their role in the modern backyard goes much further. In this episode of the Pool Magazine Podcast, we sit down with Tom Dankel, Vice President of Aquamatic Cover Systems, to discuss how rising energy costs, water conservation, maintenance and changing pool designs are influencing the conversation around automatic covers.
Dankel shares insights from more than four decades in the industry, including how covers can reduce evaporation and operating costs, the distinction between ASTM safety covers and trackless systems, and the design considerations builders need to address early in a project. We also discuss solutions for freeform and unconventional pool shapes, as well as the growing retrofit opportunity for existing pools.
It’s a practical conversation about how automatic pool covers fit into the way pools are being designed, built and used today.
