Can I also use the EXIT pool dome without anchoring it to the ground?
The EXIT pool dome must be anchored to the ground so it remains stable and cannot get blown away. For soft surfaces you can use the added ground anchors. For hard surfaces you can attach the added straps to the ground by means of screws or bolts that fit the surface. You need to take care of the fixing material yourself.

To which pools does the pool dome fit?
Can I use the pool dome as a greenhouse for my plants?
Yes, in addition to placing it over a pool, you can also perfectly use the dome for covering for example your garden, trampoline, or garden furniture.
Can I swim in my pool when the pool dome is closed?
We recommend putting the dome in half-open position when you want to use the pool. Make sure that there’s always enough fresh air coming in from underneath the EXIT pool dome while you’re swimming.
How does the pool dome heat up the water of my pool?
The EXIT pool dome uses the sun to heat up your pool and serves as a greenhouse. When the sun is out, the sun rays go through the dome, so the air and water are heated up. This way, the dome retains the heat of the sun. If you leave the dome closed as often as possible, the water will stay nice and warm and you will optimally benefit from the sun’s power.
What should I do with the pool dome in heavy winds or during a storm?
Make sure you always secure the dome, both open and closed, with the ground anchors provided (or your own fixing material in case of a hard surface). In principle, the dome can withstand wind, but it must be protected from the most violent gusts of wind. We recommend the following:
In calm weather (up to wind force 2) you can keep the dome partially open.
Up to wind force 4 you can keep the dome completely closed if you want to (thus leave it over the pool).
At wind force 5 you must open the dome completely (so do not leave it over the pool) and anchor it to the ground using the straps.
At wind force 6 or more you must disassemble the dome.
If you are unsure of the weather conditions, you should always open the dome and secure it with anchors.
How do I clean the pool dome?
It’s best to clean dirt gently with lukewarm or cold water. Cleaning agents and hard materials such as scouring sponges and brushes should preferably be avoided.
Is there enough room under the EXIT pool dome?
Under our pool domes there is plenty of room to move around. You can still throw a ball and, in many cases, you can even stand under it! Always make sure that there is enough fresh air under the dome when swimming. Because of its shape, the dome is tallest in the middle. Below you will find the maximum heights of the domes for all EXIT pools, when mounted on the pool. To get a good idea of the heights, you can click on a number of dimensions for a video.
Does the pool dome prevent my children from entering the pool on their own?
No, the dome may prevent the initial invitation for children to enter the pool, but it cannot prevent it completely. Adult supervision is desirable at all times.
What can I do against critters high up in my pool dome?
It’s inevitable that the occasional critters will fly under the dome. You can half-open the dome every now and then so the critters can fly out from underneath it.
Can I also place my heat pump underneath the pool dome?
No, the heat pump cannot be placed underneath the pool dome because the heat pump needs sufficient air circulation.
Does a pool dome go together with a robotic mower?
Yes, a pool dome goes together with a robotic mower but do make sure that the robotic mower cannot make contact with the pool dome. For example, place perimeter wire around the dome so the mower cannot get in and around the dome.
Can the pool dome stay out during snowfall or hail?
During snowfall or hail, the pool dome must be disassembled to avoid damage to the dome.
