You do not want to attempt to remove ice or snow from the swimming pool winter cover, as this could potentially cause damage to the winter cover. It is best to wait for the ice to melt, then use a cover pump to pump the water off of the winter cover once all the ice and snow is melted. You can view our selection of Cover Pumps here.
We highly recommend using water tubes to secure the cover to the deck. This way, if heavy rain or snow accumulates, the cover will slide under the water tubes rather than tearing the grommets. For the deck area, water tubes are ideal, while cover clips can be used on the top ledge where the deck is absent. This method ensures balanced weight distribution and minimizes damage risk.
Our pool covers are equipped with a durable cable and a reliable winch, both designed to securely fasten the winter cover to your above ground swimming pool. The cable is threaded through the reinforced grommets of the winter cover and then tightened around the pool's perimeter using the winch, ensuring a snug and secure fit that protects your pool throughout the harsh winter months.
To ensure a perfect fit, you should select a winter cover based on your pool's dimensions. Our winter covers are designed to be 3-4 feet larger than your pool, providing the necessary extra material for secure coverage. For instance, a pool measuring 15X30 would require a 15X30 cover, which will ultimately measure around 18'X33' to 19'X34', ensuring ample coverage and protection against winter conditions.
The primary distinctions between our winter covers lie in their thickness and color. The Supreme Guard winter cover, in green, is an economical choice, designed to last 1-2 pool seasons. The Ultimate Guard cover, in tan, offers a mid-grade option, lasting 2-4 pool seasons. Our premium offering, the Super Heavy XXtreme Winter Cover, comes in brown and stands out as our top-quality and heaviest grade cover. It boasts exceptional resistance to punctures, holes, and tears, thanks to its special coatings and heavy stitched black binding on the border, ensuring durability. The Super Heavy XXtreme Winter Cover is engineered to last 4-6 pool seasons, providing superior protection and longevity compared to most other winter covers.
