Pool Insulation Balls

With today’s ever-increasing energy costs, the winter months can be expensive to keep your fish healthy or your swimming pool functional. Euro-Matic has developed Pool Insulation Balls, a simple but highly effective pool insulation cover that is easy to install.

By pouring a layer of insulation balls onto the water surface, the balls effortlessly mould to any shape and form a practical and attractive cover over 91% of the surface area allowing oxygenation and thus preventing stagnation.

For fish such as Koi Karp, pond insulation balls in the winter months will help retain the heat and ensure they remain active. Because the pool insulation balls move, the fish can be fed or viewed and fish that remain above 10°C will be active all year round so continue to grow and remain healthy. Anything below 4°C can be fatal. Our pond insulation balls are supplied in a translucent material so the light will still pass through creating a well-lit environment.

The frequent use of a pool cover throughout the year also significantly reduces evaporation by up to 65mm a month, especially in windy conditions. While every effort is taken during the construction of a pool to use the most efficient insulating materials, still up to 70% of its heat is lost from the surface open to the atmosphere. A typical pool 6m x 10m heated to 25°C with an air temp of 18°C can lose 30,000 BTUs per hour.
