In The Swim 3000 Pool Cover
Best heavy duty winter protection for budget conscious pool owners.
This hybrid cover solves the classic winter pool dilemma by balancing solid protection with a mesh center that drains excess water. You sacrifice the total light-blocking capability of a full solid cover, but you gain a much easier spring opening without the headache of pumping off heavy, stagnant snowmelt.
