Know before you buy
This cover is designed for standard concrete or paver pool decks. You will need to drill holes into your deck to install the brass anchors that secure the cover's straps.
While this is a solid cover designed to block sunlight and prevent algae, it features a small center drain. This allows excess rainwater to filter through into the pool while keeping debris and sunlight out.
No, this cover is constructed from reinforced polypropylene RIP STOP fabric, which is significantly lighter than traditional vinyl solid covers. This makes it much easier for one or two people to manage during seasonal transitions.
The 16-year full warranty is non-prorated, meaning the manufacturer covers defects in material and workmanship for the entire duration without reducing the value over time. It protects against standard wear and tear issues related to manufacturing flaws, rather than damage caused by improper installation or misuse.
Yes, this cover is specifically sized for a 15x30 foot pool. It includes the necessary overlap required to secure the cover properly to the deck anchors, so you do not need to worry about purchasing a larger size.
While the solid fabric blocks sunlight and drastically reduces algae growth, it does not replace the need for winterizing chemicals. You should still balance your water chemistry and add a winterizing kit before closing the pool to ensure the water remains clear until spring.
