Installation Notes
- Complete pool closing steps first (lower water level as needed, remove accessories, and winterize plumbing).
- Center the cover so overlap is even around the pool.
- Thread the cable through the grommets and tighten evenly so the cover sits snug against the pool wall.
- In windy areas, use above-ground cover clips (optional) for added security.
- If water accumulates on top, use a winter cover pump to reduce standing water weight.
Care & Storage
- Remove heavy leaf piles and debris periodically to reduce stress on the cover and grommets.
- Avoid sharp objects and keep pool chemicals away from the cover material.
- In spring, rinse the cover, let it dry completely, then fold and store in a cool, dry place.
