Skip the Solar Blanket.
Keep the Heat.
Water TechniX Liquid Blanket creates an invisible barrier on your pool's surface that reduces evaporation by up to 40%. No rolling, no storage, no mess.
Your Pool Is Losing Heat
(and Money) Every Single Night
Without protection, an unshielded pool can lose several degrees overnight through evaporation alone, forcing your heater to work harder and your chemical balance to drift.
Skyrocketing Heating Bills
Every degree lost overnight means your heat pump runs longer to recover. A direct hit to your electricity bill, especially over summer.
Constant Top-Ups
An uncovered pool can lose 20–25mm of water per week through evaporation in Australian summer conditions, meaning frequent hosing up and chemical re-dosing.
Chemical Drift
Chlorine and other chemicals escape with evaporating water, throwing your balance off and making your pool more expensive to maintain week after week.
Solar Blanket Frustration
Traditional solar blankets are bulky, heavy to roll, prone to degrading, and a genuine chore especially if your pool has steps, pillars, or an irregular shape.
An Invisible Barrier That
Works While You Sleep
Water TechniX Liquid Blanket is a concentrated isopropyl alcohol–based formula that forms a microscopically thin monomolecular layer on your pool's surface. You can't see it, feel it, or swim through it, but it quietly reduces evaporation and retains heat 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Unlike a solar blanket, there's nothing to roll, nothing to store, and nothing to damage. Just pour and go! It self-disperses and replenishes with every dose.
Four Reasons Aussie Pool Owners Love It
Set & Forget
Add once a week (or after heavy rain). The formula self-disperses across the entire pool surface. No spreading or mixing required.
Retain Your Chemicals
By slowing evaporation, the liquid blanket keeps chlorine and other chemicals in the water longer. Reducing how often you need to top up your dosing.
Works With Any Pool Shape
Irregular shapes, steps, water features, pillars, a liquid barrier covers everything a solid blanket can't, with zero hassle.
Completely Swimmer-Safe
The monomolecular film disperses instantly when the pool is in use. There is no residue on skin, no film on goggles, and no odour change.
Three Steps. Done in Seconds.
Liquid Blanket is designed so any pool owner can use it! No measuring cups, no special tools, no timers.
Pour Directly Into the Pool
Add 30ml per 10,000L of pool water directly near the skimmer box or return jets. The circulation will help distribute the formula.
It Self-Disperses Across the Surface
Within minutes, Liquid Blanket spreads into an invisible monomolecular layer that covers the entire water surface from edge to edge.
Dose Weekly (or After Rain)
Repeat weekly during the swimming season, or after heavy rain which can wash the layer away. One 1L bottle treats up to 320,000L total.
Dosage at a Glance
Standard dose: 30ml per 10,000L per week. For initial treatment or after heavy rain: up to 50ml per 10,000L. At standard dose, a 1L bottle covers a 40,000L pool for roughly 8 weeks of treatment.
Get the Most Out of Liquid Blanket
Dose at Night or at Dawn
For maximum retention, add Liquid Blanket in the evening or early morning when wind is calm and evaporation is naturally lower. This gives the layer time to settle undisturbed.
Combine With a Heat Pump
Liquid Blanket pairs perfectly with a pool heat pump. It retains the heat your pump generates overnight, so you reach swimming temperature faster and spend less on electricity.
Re-dose After Heavy Rain
Significant rainfall dilutes and disrupts the surface layer. Add a fresh dose of Liquid Blanket within 24 hours of any heavy downpour to restore the barrier quickly.
Keep Circulation Running
Running your pump for a short period after dosing helps spread the formula evenly across irregularly shaped pools, water features, and any hard-to-reach corners.
Aussie Pool Owners Love It
"We retired our solar blanket after buying this. Our pool holds its temperature overnight just as well and we don't have to wrestle with a heavy reel anymore. Total game changer."
"Our pool has an odd shape with a spa spillway. A traditional blanket was never going to work properly. The liquid blanket covers everything. We've already saved money on heating this winter."
"Sceptical at first. Can't see it, can't feel it. But the proof is in the water temp readings. We've reduced our heat pump run time by about 30% since starting with Liquid Blanket. Very happy."

Water TechniX Liquid Blanket
1 Litre Bottle
- Forms an invisible monomolecular layer on the pool surface that reduces evaporation by up to 40% and retains heat overnight without restricting swimming
- Dosage: 30ml per 10,000L weekly — a 1L bottle treats a 40,000L pool for approximately 8 weeks of continuous coverage
- Compatible with all pool types — salt, mineral, and chlorine pools; works on concrete, fibreglass, and vinyl liner surfaces
- Slows the escape of chlorine and other pool chemicals along with water vapour, helping your chemical balance stay stable for longer between dosing sessions
- Swimmer-safe — the ultra-thin film disperses immediately when the pool is in use, leaving no residue, no slick feel, and no impact on water clarity
Frequently Asked Questions
Monomolecular film technology is well-established and has been used in water conservation applications for decades. The principle is simple: a single-molecule-thick layer of isopropyl alcohol sits on the water surface and physically slows the rate at which water molecules escape as vapour. Independent studies have confirmed reductions in evaporation of 25–40% in real pool conditions. It won't completely replace a solid solar blanket for maximum heat retention, but it's a highly effective passive solution particularly for irregularly shaped pools or owners who find solar blankets impractical.
Yes, completely. The film is ultrathin and disperses the moment the water surface is disturbed. You won't feel it on your skin, notice it on your goggles, or see any surface film while swimming. A new layer naturally re-forms as the water settles. Always follow your normal water testing routine and ensure the pool is balanced before swimming this applies regardless of whether you use Liquid Blanket.
The standard dosage is 30ml per 10,000L of pool water, applied weekly during the swimming season. A 1L bottle therefore treats a 40,000L pool for approximately 8 weeks at the standard dose. You'll need to re-dose sooner after heavy rainfall, which can wash the layer away. For an initial treatment or after a significant disruption, increase to up to 50ml per 10,000L.
No — Liquid Blanket does not alter pH, alkalinity, calcium hardness, or chlorine levels directly. In fact, by slowing evaporation, it may help stabilise your chemistry because evaporation is one of the main ways chlorine and other volatile pool chemicals are lost. Continue your normal water testing routine as usual. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
Yes. Liquid Blanket is compatible with all pool sanitisation systems including chlorinated, salt water, and mineral (magnesium) pools. It also works on all common pool surface types: concrete/plaster, fibreglass, and vinyl liner. If you're unsure, contact our pool experts via the support chat.
Yes. Heavy rain dilutes the formula and disrupts the surface layer, and sustained strong winds can also reduce its effectiveness. After any significant rainfall, add a fresh dose to restore coverage. In conditions with frequent rain or high wind exposure, you may want to dose slightly more frequently (every 5 days rather than weekly). In calm, sunny weather, the formula can last the full 7 days.
