In 2026, the overall upgrading of pool facility safety specifications has been completed.Supported by the Implementation Rules for Safety Technical Specifications of High-Risk Outdoor Facilities and the Residential Pool Cover Safety Technical Specification (JGJ/T498-2025), new standards have been issued for the safety performance, process standards and configuration requirements of pool safety covers. Pool safety covers have officially upgraded from optional accessories to mandatory standard equipment, promoting standardized and high-quality development of the entire industry.

The new regulations have clarified a number of mandatory safety indicators as core industry access standards. First, all commercial and residential pool safety covers must pass the 100kg static load test, 15kg dynamic impact test and child anti-pinch structure certification, with no displacement or falling off under 200N horizontal thrust to eliminate potential safety hazards. Second, safety covers for newly built pools must meet level 12 wind uplift resistance and B1 flame retardant grade to adapt to complex outdoor environments. Meanwhile, new mandatory requirements including emergency manual unlocking and opening/closing early warning have been added to ensure all-round usage safety.

The implementation of new policies has accelerated industry reshuffling, eliminating a large number of low-end products with simple craftsmanship and no safety certification, and comprehensively improving overall industry quality. Statistics show that more than 20 unqualified small and medium-sized manufacturers have withdrawn from the market in 2025. In 2026, the market penetration rate of high-end intelligent pool covers continues to rise. Highsafety and intelligent products such as fully automatic and hydraulic fully automatic covers have become the market mainstream, with the installation rate of commercial pools exceeding 83% and the mandatory installation rate of high-end residential pools surpassing 58%.

In addition to safety performance, energy-saving capacity has become another core advantage of pool covers. According to the Evaluation Standard for Green Buildings, pool thermal retention systems can be included in green building energy-saving scoring items, fully recognizing the thermal insulation, water and energy saving advantages of high-quality pool safety covers. Professional pool covers effectively reduce pool water temperature loss and heating equipment energy consumption, while isolating fallen leaves, dust and mosquitoes to cut down water filtration and water replacement costs, achieving remarkable comprehensive energy-saving and cost-reducing effects.

From the perspective of industry trends, intelligence, high safety, multi-function and long-term energy saving will be the core development directions of the pool safety cover industry in 2026. Fully automatic and hydraulic fully automatic cover systems with integrated safety protection, intelligent control, stable operation and energy-saving maintenance will continue to dominate the high-end market, while cost-effective manual systems and flexible mobile systems will further penetrate household and special scenarios, making industry segmentation more precise
