Purchasing and installing a safety cover is one of the most important purchases any pool owner can make for their pool. Safety covers are extremely important pieces of equipment because they prevent potential drowning accidents for pets, children, and even adults. Safety covers, unlike solar or winter covers that rest on the surface of the pool, are held tightly around the pool deck by a series of hooks and anchors. These anchors keep the safety cover stretched tightly over the pool, and prevent the cover from sinking from the weight of a person or an animal.

There are 2 different types of safety covers; solid covers and mesh covers. Both types of covers are lightweight, strong, and provide excellent peace of mind to pool owners, but they each offer their own distinct advantages. Solid covers prevent dirt and debris from getting into the pool, and they also block sunlight from entering the pool, helping to prevent algae and bacteria growth. Mesh covers allow rain and snow to melt through into the pool, making them much lighter and easier to remove.

Every pool has specific needs, and every pool owner will want to find the perfect type of safety cover for their pool and their budget.
