Enhance your swimming pool
experience with true automation
APR electric pool covers
The benefits of automatic pool covers are endless, but ropes and tethers,
or on-deck tracks and cables (things that most automatic covers need to operate)
tend to overcomplicate things.

Truly Automatic
No ropes. No cables. No tracks
Most automatic covers still require tedious- even taxing manual effort or require permanent and unsightly installation. APR pool cover systems
are different. Electric, portable, and easy to operate multiple times per day; their unique design offers pool ownersthe luxury of automated operation,
without the expense of a built-in swimming pool cover. Effortless operation- no strings attached.
Compatible with virtually
any cover variety
From solar covers to thermal blankets. Our products are suited for several
different pool cover types. Use your existing cover or choose a variety that is
best suited for your swimming pool needs.
Our reels and rollers are designed for covers between 12 and 16 mils and
accommodate covers up to 20ft by 40ft.

We created the Auto Pool Reel because we believe that it shouldn’t take an extravagant built-in system for a fully automatic, hands-free experience. Since then, we've also created
the Auto Pool Roller for a semi-automatic experience that requires significantly less elbow grease compared to your ordinary automatic cover system.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’ve ever used a conventional solar blanket or cover roller, you may know how burdensome they can be to operate. Automatic cover rollers are considered a “step-up” from manual rollers, but these varieties are never completely automatic. They’re actually semi-automatic. This means they require you to pull the cover to unwind it and guide the cover back onto the reel when it’s winding back up. We set out to change this. Designed for convenient one-person operation, APR’s patented cover systems require minimal to no effort, depending on the model you choose. Both of our models are far simpler and much easier to operate than traditional “automatic” cover rollers. Our cover systems don’t use ropes, tracks, or cables, nor do they require costly or permanent installation that might alter your pool deck. Our premium model features the same fully automatic unwinding and retracting capabilities as a built-in cover, but in a compact and convenient roller-style concept. It’s the first of its kind.
Customarily, these terms can be used interchangeably when referring to pool cover systems. At APR however, they help to distinguish the difference between the two automatic cover systems that we offer.
The Auto Pool Reel is fully automatic. It unwinds and rolls up the pool cover completely in its own. No manual assistance is ever needed- not even to adjust the cover. The reel will adjust the cover on its own.
The Auto Pool Roller is a semi-automatic or retractable pool cover. It requires gentle pulling to unwind, and minor adjusting as it rolls up the cover. While it’s a little more hands-on, it’s perfect for smaller budgets.
Neither of our cover systems ever require any strings or ropes.
No, they don’t. We wanted our products to allow for as much flexibility and freedom as possible. The Auto Pool Reel and Auto Pool Roller were designed to be compatible with almost any type of swimming pool cover, so that our customers can choose a cover that best suits their needs or use their existing pool cover.
The Auto Pool Reel and the Auto Pool Roller are completely customizable. You can select the length of your cover system, so that it’s just the right size for your pool/pool cover. Our products are suited for solar covers and blankets between 12 and 16 mils in thickness.
No need. Once you’re armed with all the information you need, head to our “shop” page on our primary navigation menu. You can customize and purchase your cover system from there.
Our motorized pool covers are electrically powered. They plug into your nearest outlet, so you don’t have to wait for batteries to charge or for the sun to appear, for your automatic cover to operate flawlessly.
Our cover systems can be made with your plug type of choice, so if you’re from outside North America, you won’t need to go hunting for an adapter. Upon purchase, click on “Plug Types Outside North America” to upgrade to an international plug type.
You don’t have to be a pro to set up our cover systems. APR automatic covers are non-invasive so that you don’t have to stress about permanent components or how they’ll be fixed to your pool deck. Just imagine a manual cover roller with a button in place of a cranking device. Our automatic cover systems are about as simple as that!
Our products come partially assembled. They include an instruction manual and access to step-by-step videos that will help walk you through the process of putting your Auto Pool Reel or Auto Pool Roller together. Most of our customers find this process relatively uncomplicated and straight-forward. It shouldn’t be long before you’re enjoying the benefits of your cover system.
A simple silhouette and a compact, lightweight design enable our cover systems to be easily moved on and off your pool deck. This also allows our customers to store them away during winter months. If you live in an area with high-winds or unpredictable/inclement weather, we recommend securing your pool cover reel or pool cover roller to your pool deck when in use for added security.
