Abstract
A pool double safety cover with at least one protection protocol includes a first cover that is substantially impermeable to water, and a second cover that is substantially permeable to water. A track system having independent parallel tracks is provided for guiding the first cover and the second cover to open and close over a pool. At least one interlock switch is configured to generate a signal indicating whether the first cover and the second cover is in a fully open or fully closed state. A drive system is configured to open and close the first cover and the second cover over the pool according to a protection protection protocol based on feedback from the interlock switch and at least one sensor. In another example, the protection protocol is a freeze protection protocol. In another example, the protection protocol is a precipitation protection protocol.
