Blue Wave Arctic Armor Safety Cover

Yes, this cover includes hardware specifically designed for concrete decks. If you have a different deck material, such as pavers or wood, you may need to purchase separate, compatible anchor kits.

The fine, two-ply mesh is engineered to allow water to drain through the cover into the pool. This prevents the accumulation of dangerous standing water on top of the cover, which is a common issue with solid covers.

Yes, this is an ASTM-certified safety cover with a break strength exceeding 4,000 lbs. It is designed to support significant weight, providing a crucial safety barrier for your pool during the off-season.

This specific model is designed for a standard 20' x 40' rectangular pool and does not include a cutout for steps. If your pool has stairs or a ladder, this cover will not fit properly without custom modifications.

The cover features a lightweight design that makes it easier to handle than solid vinyl alternatives. While the initial installation requires drilling into your concrete deck to set the anchors, subsequent seasonal openings and closings are relatively fast using the included spring attachment system.

While the mesh is excellent at filtering out leaves and debris, it is not a solid, opaque cover. Because it allows water to pass through, some sunlight can penetrate, so it is important to properly balance and winterize your pool water chemistry before covering it for the season.
