How to measure the insulation of a thermal cover?

There are several indicators to determine the thermal performance of an insulator. The key indicator for evaluating the energy efficiency of materials is the thermal transmittance coefficient, often denoted as U. This coefficient indicates the amount of heat that passes through a material per unit of surface area and per temperature difference between the two sides of the material; it is expressed in watts per square meter-Kelvin (W/m2K). The lower the coefficient, the more insulating the material is, meaning it allows less heat to escape. All manufacturers in the thermal cover market know this coefficient for their product. This allows local authorities to make an objective choice.

Why is a thermal cover necessary for an indoor pool?

Why should you put a lid on a saucepan?

The answer to this second question is obvious: to retain heat and prevent liquid evaporation. There is no difference between a saucepan on an induction hob in a kitchen equipped with an extractor hood and an Olympic pool in an indoor aquatic center equipped with dehumidifiers. Only the volume and characteristics of the evaporating liquid are different.  

Maintenance

Everblue France has a network of dealers spread across the entire national territory who offer genuine responsiveness when intervention is required. Customized maintenance contracts are available.

Furthermore, as Apollo Max thermal covers are 100% manufactured in our own factory located in France, all parts for these covers are readily available at all times.

After the installation of the Apollo Max thermal cover, Everblue supports your staff through regular training to ensure the continued proper use of this equipment over time.

A quick return on investment

Depending on the type of energy used to heat the pool water, the air in the indoor space, and the methods used for dehumidification, the reduction in energy bills can lead to a return on investment within one to two years.
