How Cool is a Pre Cut Pool Cover?

Posted on

Custom cut pool covers are a winner not only for good looks (which come with a good fit), but saves you time and wastage.

For accurately measured pools or pre-manufactured fibreglass pools (where we have the data), Daisy can use ‘the machine that goes bing’ to pre-cut for you.

Whether you want your solar pool cover cut to shape, or your Thermotech foam cover cut out or even a black dig template or blue sales template cut out Daisy can cut it out BEFORE you get it.

Check out the video to see how easy Daisy makes it look!

Daisy has invested a huge amount of time and resources to make your life easier – just one more way that Daisy is helping you sell more.

Goodbye Berlin and Venice & Hello Daisy Power!

Posted on

Goodbye Berlin and Venice

After five years we say goodbye to the Berlin and Venice.

Whilst the high-end power rollers were great and were popular in its time, lower sales volumes had indicated that they’re less on trend. So always wanting to stock only the best selling products for you, we’re shifting our focus. Daisy will run out the last of the Berlin and Venice stock and will discontinue the lines when stocks run out.

Always backing our products, we will continue to support the product for many years to come.

And Hello Daisy Power!

On the other hand, the Daisy Power Roller is a phenomenally successful product. This power roller has grown from strength to strength since its introduction. With two remote controls, programmable roll function and disengage, the Daisy Power sales have been steadily growing to become a strong and reliable product for all our sales.

Daisy Launches New Sand Filter Change Bags

Posted on

Because you asked for them!

Listening to the industry has always been a hallmark of how we work at Daisy. It helps us drive innovation and deliver to you market leading and relevant products to help you sell more!

 

The problem: The sand filter blues…

We all know the problem the service tech’s have when they scoop or pump out the sand from the filter…what do they do with it after?

Some empty the sand on a tarp, the floor, or paving to let the water drain and then use buckets to move the sand to their vehicles to dispose of it.

Messy, painful and … there has to be a better way!

 

The solution: Daisy innovation

Over the last few months, we have been asked by a few pool shops to come up with an idea to address this issue. We used our strong and porous WinterKleen material as a base product to come up with the perfect free standing bag capable of holding the wet sand that comes out of the sand filter after a media change.

After a few trials and modifications we have done it! We created a bag that can take the weight of sand and be porous enough to allow the water to drain through.

The testing was a resounding success with orders already coming in strong.

 

The technology behind the quality – what you need to know.

The sand bags are made from the WinterKleen material so they let the water drain out, and are super strong.

Using Teflon sewing thread, the same that we use for the WinterKleen covers, we have a tried and tested material to ensure that you won’t have any issues on the quality of  the stitching.

For easy transport and added strength, we have designed in two 25mm polypropylene webbing handles that are sewn completely under the bag to support the weight.

The new Daisy sand bags are strong enough to hold 10-15 kgs – more weight than you can safely carry so don’t over fill the bags and hurt yourself!

We’ve also given a lot of thought on the design of the bag. The sturdy design is engineered to allow the bag to sit up on its own and maintain its shape for easy filling.  By folding over the sides (1/3 to ½ of the way down), it makes it even easier to stand up.

 

To order:

The sand bags are available now for only $18.50 + GST each. Freight for each order is $19.00.

Daisy proves itself as Australian’s best for over 12 years

A real life view from a client on the merits of a pool cover and Daisy was published in the Pool & Spa Review.

Gordon Halnan from North Shore of Sydney has had the same Daisy pool cover and roller since 2004. He shares his valuable experience of not only the benefits of a pool cover but the peace of mind in having a quality product that he could rely on for over 12 years.

“I could easily talk the leg off an iron pot – raving about the best pool decision I ever made – getting a Daisy pool cover!” said Gordon.

Gordon Halnan from North Shore of Sydney has had the same Daisy pool cover and roller since 2004. He shares his valuable experience of not only the benefits of a pool cover but the peace of mind in having a quality product that he could rely on for over 12 years.

“I could easily talk the leg off an iron pot – raving about the best pool decision I ever made – getting a Daisy pool cover!” said Gordon.

Evaporation was my reason

“Since November 2004 I have only put the hose into the pool once to top up the water level. Yes – once in 12 years – including the Sydney drought which was particularly bad from late 2006 to early 2008 (3 summers).”

Warmer water – unexpected benefit

“I threw out the roof top solar heating in 2006 – my gutters thank me for no more leaking salt water …”

What pool debris?

However, I’m not sure too many people can make this boast – my pool cleaner died last summer so my pool hadn’t seen a vacuum of any sort since before Easter. There were only two baskets of debris at the bottom of the pool – after six months! The pool cover did have a fair bit of rubbish on top – but it was no trouble to sweep off (and then scoop up) as I rolled up the blanket three weeks ago to get ready for summer.

Other benefits

I’m pretty sure I use less pool chemicals – sun kills chlorine and the need for pool stabiliser is also reduced because the blanket solves that problem.

Warranty

The last thing I will say is that I was very worried about spending money in 2004 and having to replace the blanket at some unknown point in the future. Given that my Daisy Pool Cover is 12 years old, I will happily tell anyone that Daisy’s guarantee is solid!”

The Daisy Guarantee

Daisy’s Managing Director, Derek Prince said “We constantly innovate with a focus on design and quality. Our products are manufactured for Australian conditions and it’s terrific to see a valued customer in Gordon getting exactly what he should be getting in a quality pool cover and roller.”

Gordon concludes, “Looking forward to another great summer of backyard swimming – brought to me by Daisy!”

This is a great testimonial that you can use to help you in the sale process. It was unsolicited and honest.

Note: 316 stainless steel in certain environments can get a discolouring mould appearing on the surface that may look like rust (especially indoors in high chlorine or low air flow). This discolouration is not rust. Rust is a red oxide on the surface that flakes off, whereas the mould can be washed and scrubbed off with a light bleach and non-abrasive kitchen cloth sourer. If stainless steel is scratched, the marks will not affect the performance of the product. Scratches and marks are not covered under the warranty.

I love my WinterKleen all year round.

Don’t be fooled by the name.

The WinterKleen has long been the go-to answer for pool owners with high debris problems.

The covers are a solution product. If you have customers inundated with leaves or any other debris, regardless of the season, WinterKleen is a saviour!

Made from a special non stretch porous material to let water in but everything else out, WinterKleen is a product that simply works.
