What are the benefits of an ABGAL Oasis Solar Pool Cover?

Only ABGAL Oasis solar blankets are manufactured using the revolutionary new 'SmartBubble' profile. SmartBubble boasts all the benefits of our old traditional bubble shape, in a bubble that is around 20% flatter - making it more compact and easier to handle.

  • Save water. The Oasis 400 and 500 micron varieties have been independently tested, and proven to stop up to 99.84% of evaporation.
  • You'll swim sooner and longer – your pool cover will increase the water temperature by up to 8°C, giving you a warmer pool, for longer.
  • Your chemical consumption will be greatly reduced. Once a pool cover is installed, we recommend that automated chlorinators be turned down by 50%.
  • All Oasis covers are suitable for both salt water and chlorinated pools.
  • All Oasis solar pool covers are specially treated to resist UV damage.
  • Made in Australia, Oasis pool covers are made from category 4 LDPE – so are completely recyclable!

Independently tested, they are proven to stop up to 99.84% of evaporation.
Silverback solar cover Oasis Silverback (500 micron) is our heaviest grade of solar blanket. Translucent blue on top attracts the sun’s rays, while a silver backing helps to hold the heat into the water. It will prevent up to 99.84 of evaporation, and comes with an eight year pro-rata warranty.
Non heating solar cover

Oasis Koolcover (400 micron) looks like a solar blanket, but will not heat the water. Ideal for hot climates or heated pools, it prevents the sun's rays from penetrating and heating the water, helping to maintain existing water temperature. It will also stop up to 99.84% of evaporation, and comes with a 5 year pro-rata warranty.

How does a Solar Pool Cover work?

A cost effective and convenient way to save water and heat your pool at the same time, Solar blankets are made from a film containing thousands of tiny bubbles, which work together to collect and retain heat in your pool. The blanket floats on top of the water (bubble side down) and allows solar energy to pass through - trapping and retaining the heat in your pool.

All ABGAL Oasis solar pool covers feature SmartBubble technology - the 'smartest' bubble profile on the market. Used in conjunction with a reel system, most residential pools can be covered and uncovered quickly and easily – often in around a minute.

How do I measure my pool to know what size solar blanket I need?

Solar blankets are supplied as a rectangular sheet and therefore need to cover the entire pool including steps. Measure the longest length and the widest width of pool (see diagrams below) to ensure you get the correct blanket for your pool at the waterline.
