Lovely bloke, really genuine

After requesting a slightly bigger pool cover, the customer’s newly installed cover blew off due to the pool being quite full.

So Chris went back out and trimmed the edges a bit for them. Craig, the customer, then called us up to say that Chris did a very good job, and he is a “lovely bloke, really genuine.”

Great work Chris!

At Daisy, we use a 3D point-capturing device to measure pool shells in the manufacturer’s yard, enabling us to robotically cut our pool covers to match the pool shell's exact shape. These covers come complete with radius corners so they can be cut to fit the waterline or installed oversized with an upturn.

Our pre-cut pool cover data is collected from new pool shells to ensure shape accuracy. Variations in cover fit can occur from the pool installation due to the pool base screening and backfilling affecting the top profile of the pool, or if the manufacturer alters the mould. This can result in a slightly different cover fit, perhaps even showing water or uneven upturn in some areas. There is nothing wrong with the pool installation or the cover fit, and this doesn't affect the cover's functionality.

Our standard upturn cut leaves a 20mm upturn, with the option of a waterline cut.

Upturn Cut The standard Upturn Cut is a pool cover made oversize to make an upturn of around 20mm, extending the pool cover upward towards the pool coping. The cover is on the pool centralised so the upturn is even all around. This feature is particularly useful in areas of debris as the cover ‘catches’ and holds the debris and allows for the natural up to 1% of shrinkage

Waterline Cut The Waterline Cut option is a pool cover shaped to follow the waterline of the pool when it is at its normal operating level. This cut is easier to use and sits neatly on the surface however there is no allowance for the natural up to 1% shrinkage

The Difference between Free Standing and Backless Enclosures

Understanding the differences between our free standing and backless pool pump & filter enclosures is crucial for selecting the right Acoustic Box for your setup

Free Standing

Rear Panel: A free standing pool pump & filter enclosure includes a rear panel with wooden insert to mount equipment, providing a fully enclosed structure on all sides.
Best suited for situations where there is ample space behind the equipment and something to mount, ensuring full protection and sound insulation.

Backless

Backless pool pump & filter enclosures utilise two wall strips to connect the pool pump and filter enclosure to the wall, with a horizontal bridge attached to the top of the wall strips to ensure the system is fully enclosed. These wall strips are to be attached to the wall, with three locations available along the height.
Additional Depth Note: Backless pool pump & filter enclosures add 50mm to the depth of the Free Standing model
Optimal for Tight Spaces: Designed for scenarios where the equipment is located within 50mm of a wall. The absence of a rear panel allows the box to fit against the wall, providing flexibility for equipment, pipes, and electrical connections to be positioned on the wall inside the pool pump and filter enclosure.

Measurement Considerations

To ensure a perfect fit and easy installation, please note that the measurements provided for each pool pump & filter enclosure are external measurements.

Internal and External Measurements:

The internal measurements on a free standing box (to accommodate the panel bends and the acoustic foam) are approximately 50mm less (25mm per wall) than the external measurements. This means you can accurately gauge the space needed for your equipment based on the external dimensions provided.

Concrete Slab Allowance:

If you are placing your Acoustic Box on a concrete slab, it is advisable to allow for an additional 10-20mm on all sides of the slab. This extra space ensures that the box fits comfortably and accounts for any slight irregularities in the slab dimensions.

Lid Clearance:

The lid of the Acoustic Box requires 45mm of clearance to fully open. When placing the box against a wall or other hard surfaces, please ensure this clearance is available to avoid any obstruction when accessing your equipment.

Include step in roller width

Rollers are typically supplied to suit the main body of the pool (A only) to have the step area either folded over or as a separate piece, however, you can order the roller to suit the main body plus the step area (A + A1) so the pool cover and step area is recovered ‘flat’ onto the roller.

If the step area is to be folded on the cover for recovery, it is recommended to have the roller at the non-step area end so the folded section recovery is as small as possible.

Folding a step area at the start of the pool cover recovery is not recommended as the cover becomes thicker on the fold side that will make the roll uneven.

Folding large step areas is not recommended.

Note: Some roller models cant have step areas folded over, contact Daisy for tricky installations.
