The best swimming pool tarpaulins and mats in 2024

Summer, hot rays of the sun, warm wind and hot air. At such a time, you really want to swim, but there may not be any nearby reservoirs or they are completely unsuitable for swimming. Here "the pool comes to the rescue", where you can cool down and swim to your heart's content. However, the pool requires special attention, namely: the surface on which the "water tank" stands must be flat and covered with a special mat, and a "cape" is required outside so that the water does not turn green and leaves and dirt do not get into it.

You need to decide what kind of pool you have, because for each category specific tents with bedding are provided.

Pool types

• Stationary - the most durable and durable type. The frame itself is in a kind of concrete sarcophagus. Construction and further maintenance are not cheap at all, and they are not suitable for everyone due to their large dimensions.
• Inflatable - they are also called portable, since they are very easy to carry from one place to another. However, this design is not enough for long. Firstly, the walls themselves are soft, without support - one awkward movement and the flood is guaranteed. Secondly, a careful attitude towards this species is required (it is especially important to ensure that the stones do not fall under the bottom). But the democratic cost cannot but please summer residents.
• Frame is the most convenient and popular type. It is distinguished by its special strength, as well as the fact that it can be transferred, like an inflatable, but only the material is stronger.

Litter, as one could understand, is needed only for inflatable and frame pools. Awnings are required for all types. Let's consider their main categories.

Types of awnings

• Air bubble film - consists of 2 layers (bubbles and a layer of polyethylene). It is a favorite with many summer residents because of its versatility, durability, ease of use. It also helps to keep the water warm.
• PVC - reinforcing mesh with a polyvinyl chloride coating, which is covered with varnish (Teflon or acrylic) on top. It is difficult to pull such an awning over the bowl on your own, and the material is capricious in storage.
• Louver coating - consists of solid polyvinyl chloride and is much safer than other coatings. Ease of use is also present;
• Polypropylene laminated fabric - durable and waterproof. The main advantage is the low cost.

Let's move on to our ranking of the best mats and tents for each type of pool separately.

For a stationary pool, you only need an awning so that dirt and dust do not get into the water when no one is swimming.

What to look for when choosing?

1. What kind of pool this or that product belongs to. For a stationary one, for example, the awnings can be attached directly to the base of the pool itself, that is, you will not have to remove and attach it again every time, but for an inflatable one there are no such awnings.
2. Sizes so that the awning is fully sized for the bowl.
3. The quality of the material.

The rating includes mainly the same manufacturers, since their product is very popular on the market. Other companies, if they offer tents or bedding, are in limited quantities, and you can not buy them in all online stores.
