Applications & Fitment
Intended for 15-foot round above-ground swimming pools requiring winter protection. Confirm that your pool is round and approx. 15′ diameter, and that an above-ground style cover with overlap is acceptable for your installation.
Installation Instructions
- Remove ladders and accessories from pool before covering.
- Place cover over pool with black side facing downward.
- Thread the included steel cable through all grommets around the perimeter.
- Tighten the cover using the winch until the cover lies snug-but-not-tight over the pool.
- Check cables and tension periodically during winter to maintain proper fit and prevent sag or debris collection.
Troubleshooting
-
Cover sagging or water pooling: Adjust cable tension and remove accumulated water using a hose or pump to prevent excess load.
-
Debris under cover: Ensure black side faces down and cable is properly secured to prevent wind lift and debris intrusion.
-
Torn or frayed cover edges: Inspect the stitching and grommets; replace if damage is excessive to avoid water infiltration.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the cover each season. Remove collected snow and leaves promptly. At season’s end, rinse and dry the cover before folding and storing in a shaded, dry location to extend life. Proper winter covering helps protect your pool shell, liner and water chemistry during the off-season.
