FAQs

What size pool does this cover fit?

This cover is designed for 12-foot diameter round above-ground pools.

Does this cover prevent evaporation?

No, this cover is designed primarily to keep out dirt and debris. It does not function as a solar or evaporation cover.

Is this a safety cover?

No, this is not a safety cover and should not be relied upon to prevent accidental falls into the pool.

How often should I clean the cover?

It's recommended to clean the cover periodically, especially if it becomes visibly dirty or before storing it. Gentle cleaning with soap and water is sufficient.

What are the drain holes for?

The drain holes allow rainwater or collected debris to exit the cover, preventing water from accumulating and causing the cover to sag or potentially damage the pool structure.

Can I leave the cover on the pool all the time?

While the cover protects from debris, it's best to remove it before swimming. For optimal pool health, consider removing it periodically to allow for air circulation, especially during extended periods without use.

What is the overhang size?

The cover features a 10-inch overhang that drapes over the sides of the pool for a more secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Cover sags significantly in the middle after rain.

Check if the drain holes are clogged. Gently clear any debris from the holes. Ensure the rope ties are taut.

Cover doesn't fit snugly or blows off easily.

Verify you have the correct 12-foot diameter cover for your pool. Re-tighten the nylon rope ties, ensuring they are evenly distributed around the pool's perimeter.

Material appears stiff or brittle.

This can occur with prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight. While designed for UV resistance, extreme conditions may affect the material over time. Ensure the cover is stored properly when not in use.

Cover is dirty and needs cleaning.

Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
