You'll enjoy the benefits of an automatic pool cover, including heat conservation, safety, and clean pools. What kind of maintenance is possible with an automatic swimming pool cover, though? Do you need to hire someone or do you have the ability to do it yourself?

Auto Cover Maintenance Daily
Check that your covering is shut every day by looking out the window. If there is any rain, an automatic cover pump must be installed and ready to go. If the pool is severely leaking, it may be necessary to maintain its water level daily.
Check the water chemistry, and monitor chlorine levels on an almost daily basis. To protect your automatic pool cover, it is important to maintain a good water balance and low levels of chlorine.
Weekly Auto Care Maintenance
The Cover should be fully opened once per week. This allows chlorine byproducts to evaporate by gassing off at the pool's surface. This protects the cover material against corrosive chloramines. After adding large quantities of pool chemicals to the pool, leave the cover open for at least several hours. Once the pool is steamed, close the cover until the chlorine levels have subsided.
Make sure your water level is correct. This can cause stress to the tracks, cover webbing, and ropes. Any water weight added to the cover will cause it to be even more stressed if it falls below the skimmer level. Leakages in pools must be fixed quickly.
