Floating covers work by creating a physical barrier on the surface of water. Thanks to buoyancy, these covers float on top of the water. This cover typically made from materials like polymers or membranes, prevents evaporation by sealing off the water from the air.
Floating covers also reduce the entry of debris and contaminants while limiting exposure to sunlight, which can help control algae growth. Some floating covers are designed to be flexible and conform to the water's surface, adjusting to changes in water levels.
