Frequently asked questions about the Starpool 8 × 5 m cover
What surface are the anchors installed on?
The anchors are designed for installation on a firm, suitable surface, such as the coping stones or terrace paving. The system described for this model is not designed to be fixed directly onto grass. Before manufacturing, it is advisable to check the available surface around the entire pool.
What if the pool has an external staircase or an irregular shape?
External stairs, projections and irregular shapes may require a different manufacturing configuration. We recommend providing measurements and, where applicable, photos or a sketch so the manufacturer can assess the appropriate solution before preparing a quote.
How is rainwater accumulated on the cover drained?
According to its current technical specifications, this model has a central drain. During the winter, it is advisable to periodically check that the drainage is not blocked by leaves or dirt and to prevent excessive water from accumulating.
What maintenance does the cover need during the winter?
We recommend periodically checking the condition of the tensioners, the anchoring of the anchors and the cleanliness of the surface. Before removing and storing the cover, it must be cleaned and dried to prevent storing moisture and dirt.
