Hybrid End Casting
Each Cover-Pools mechanism includes an exclusive hybrid end casting with stainless steel and durable polymer parts to prevent corrosion. Each roller drum is also marine-grade anodized for maximum durability. Utilizes Corr-Resist™ technology for superior corrosion prevention.
Motor
bigRED™
bigRED™ is our standard electric drive system with an advanced 3/4 horsepower, high-torque, waterproof motor made exclusively for Cover-Pools.
Powerful yet Compact
With twice the available torque of other electric automatic pool cover motors, bigRED is as powerful as it is compact. An O-ring and potted wire entry points ensure a watertight seal. No-maintenance hardened-steel gears are encased in permanent grease. This motor is UL-listed
Auto-shutoff
Like an electronic slip clutch, the amp limiter shuts the motor off when the pool cover is fully opened or closed. It also is compatible with the accessory board to control water features.
Hydraulic Motor Option
Cover-Pools offers a powerful 1 1/2 horsepower hydraulic motor. Its sensitive pressure-release system offers adjustable power and a built-in automatic shutoff for maximum safety. This powerful hydraulic system provides more compact components and increased space efficiency.
The Ultimate 3/4 Horsepower Upgrade
For large-sized pools, the Ultimate High-Torque motor provides 25% more torque and reduces the speed by 25% perfect for those jobs that need more power.
