The Coverstar 3 channel underguide track and slider system out performs all the competitors similar hardware. This 10 year proven system has been outstanding.
Sliders are nearly impossible to break Large wear area = long life System is strong enough to operate without limit switch systems - cover won't pull out of the
track 3 Channel design handles much more, and is smoother then other 2 channel track - the entire cover
system works better The detachable rope/ slider assemblies are easy to service - ropes can be replaced without
sewing
The standard electric gear motors are manufactured in a 'can of epoxy' giving them excellent resistance to water. The motor will work while, and even after the mechanism enclosure is temporarily flooded. The hardened steel shaft and oil bathed gears have an outstanding record of reliability in the field.
The stainless steel rope pulleys are custom, specially designed for Coverstar automatic pool covers. The two inch mechanism pulleys are more forgiving to the ropes than the industry standard one inch. We have not had to replace a single two inch pulley since their use began in 2006.
As an upgrade, 6 inch extruded clear anodized roll up tubes are available. Recommended for salt water pools, indoor pools, commercial applications, or when just the best is wanted. Anodized for superior corrosion resistance. Heavy duty, easily twice the thickness, and strength of the previous industry standard, irrigation tube. Corrugated design interlocks with the hubs.
Quoted directly from the Coverstar website:
"PowerFlex Rope behaves like a shock absorber that allows it to be more forgiving and self adjusting during operation. It also resists distortion that is common with autocover ropes, making it easier to install and operate with fewer adjustments."
COVERSTAR - the most durable and reliable automatic safety cover on the market
Stainless steel construction Heavy duty clutch and drive parts Coverstar unique 2 piece main drive pin assembly - never breaks Caliper style mechanical torque limiter Cast and machined solid stainless steel rope spool assembly Sealed electric motor resists temporary flooding Coverstar unique two inch stainless steel pulleys are used on the mechanism Intelligent design allows for extensive disassembly, lubrication, and service without removing
the entire mechanism. The system is relatively easy to service. Two piece tube cones allow for easy removal (or repositioning) of the roll up tube, for
cleaning of the mechanism enclosure, or service, etc. The mechanism end opposite the motor has a 3/4" square receive to accept a 3/4" ratchet to
manually crank the pool cover open in case of power failure, etc.This is not an accident. Professionalism, innovation, and continual product advances / improvements, are what Coverstar brings to the table. We appreciate this high level of service, and it is what we have come to expect.
