An automatic pool cover does several things at once. It keeps the pool cleaner between uses, reduces water evaporation, retains heat, limits chemical consumption, and adds a meaningful layer of safety for families with young children or pets near the pool.
Most homeowners who add an automatic cover say they use their pool more often, not less. When opening and closing the pool takes seconds rather than an ordeal, it becomes something you do on a Tuesday evening after work, not just on weekends when there is time to manage a manual cover.
Relax Pools of NOVA installs Integra Pool Covers — automatic safety covers designed for durability, clean operation, and dependable long-term performance. We size and install every cover to the specific dimensions of your pool so it fits correctly and operates the way it should from the first day of use.
When you build a new pool with Relax Pools of NOVA, an Integra automatic cover can be integrated from the beginning for a clean, finished result. The track and housing are built into the deck during construction.
We assess your current pool dimensions and deck configuration to determine whether your existing setup supports a clean installation. Most pools are good candidates with minor or no deck modification.
Northern Virginia's shoulder seasons — spring and fall — are long enough to swim in, but the overnight temperature swings are significant. An automatic cover retains heat and reduces thermal loss overnight, which can meaningfully extend the usable swim season at both ends of the year without the cost of a heater running around the clock.
Summer debris is also a real factor in this region. Pollen season, tree cover, and afternoon storms mean an uncovered pool can go from clean to cluttered in hours. A properly fitted Integra cover eliminates most of that problem, which reduces the time you spend managing the pool and the chemicals you spend maintaining it.
We have installed automatic covers across this region and we know how the local conditions affect both product selection and installation approach. We do not install a generic cover. We install the right cover for your pool, your deck, and your yard.

Integra Pool Covers are automatic safety covers for inground pools. The cover opens and closes with a key switch or button, traveling on tracks along the pool perimeter. When closed, the cover is rated to support significant weight, providing a safety barrier for homes with young children or pets.
Yes, in most cases. We assess your pool dimensions, deck configuration, and coping to determine whether your current setup supports a clean installation. Some decks require minor modification to accommodate the track and housing. We evaluate this before recommending anything.
Integra Pool Covers are automatic safety covers, meaning they are designed and rated to support the weight of a child or pet. Not all automatic covers carry a true safety rating. This is an important distinction if child safety is a primary reason for the installation.
Yes. Integra covers are fully compatible with saltwater pools. Proper water chemistry management reduces wear on the cover fabric over time, the same as with a traditional chlorine pool.
Installation typically takes one to two days once the cover has been manufactured to your pool specifications. Lead time on the cover itself varies by time of season. We provide a clear timeline before any work begins.
Automatic pool covers require periodic cleaning of the fabric and track system and occasional lubrication of the drive mechanism. We walk you through basic maintenance at the end of installation. The covers are designed to operate reliably with straightforward upkeep.
Yes. We serve homeowners throughout Prince William County, Fauquier County, and the surrounding Northern Virginia area including Manassas, Gainesville, Haymarket, Bristow, and Warrenton.
