What will a winter cover do for my pool?
- Winter covers are an essential part of pool maintenance, and provide many benefits to pool owners. Winter pool covers are great for keeping dirt and debris out of your pool, meaning there is little to nothing to clean when you open your pool for the summer. A winter cover can also protect the pool from sunlight and UV rays, meaning there will be less algae and bacteria growth during the winter.
I have a custom-sized pool, which cover should I order?
- Steel Guard In-Ground Winter Covers come in many shapes and sizes, but if you do not see a size that will fit your pool, please give us a call at 1-800-LESLIES to set up a custom pool cover fitting.
What do I use to keep the cover in place?
- Steel Guard In-Ground Winter Covers are designed to be used with water bags or Hold ‘Em Downs placed around the edge of the cover. These water bags will hold the cover securely in place during the winter. To help keep the cover flush with the pool surface and prevent any debris from entering the pool, a small amount of water, around ½ to 1 inch, should be kept on top of the cover.
What’s the difference between a winter cover and a safety cover?
- While a safety cover is designed to be locked into place over your pool and prevent animals and people from falling into the pool, winter covers do not lock into place and therefore do not prevent accidents. Both products keep leaves and debris out of the pool during the winter offseason, but winter covers should never be relied upon to prevent accidents.
Can I use this cover for my above-ground pool?
- If you have an above-ground pool, please feel free to browse Leslie’s selection of winter covers designed specifically for above-ground pools.
