Pool Mate Mesh Winter Pool Cover

The mesh is designed with a tight 12x12 scrim weave, which is effective at blocking leaves, twigs, and larger debris while still allowing water to pass through. While very fine silt or dust might occasionally filter through, the cover keeps the vast majority of contaminants out, making your spring opening much cleaner.

The 4-foot overlap provides extra material beyond the dimensions of your pool, which is crucial for securing the cover properly. This additional slack ensures you have enough fabric to pull the cover taut over the top rail and down the sides, allowing the included winch and cable system to create a secure, wind-resistant seal.

Yes, this cover is specifically designed for high-wind environments. The combination of the durable polyethylene construction and the included heavy-duty winch and cable system allows you to cinch the cover tightly around the pool, minimizing the risk of it lifting or flapping during winter storms.

A solid cover traps all water on top, which often requires a cover pump to prevent heavy pooling that can damage the cover or pool structure. This mesh cover allows rain and snowmelt to drain directly into the pool, which eliminates the need for a pump and reduces the overall weight stress on your pool walls.

Yes, the package includes the cover, a cable, and a winch. You will have the necessary hardware to fasten the cover securely to your above-ground pool right out of the box.
