The Blue Wave Arctic Armor winter cover uses a dense 7x7 scrim woven polyethylene panel with reinforced, heat-sealed seams to form a nearly watertight barrier that resists tears and keeps most debris out. The solid panel design and black underside help limit sunlight and evaporation over winter, while included cable-and-winch hardware secures the cover in windy or snowy conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this cover keep debris and water out during winter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Arctic Armor’s solid scrim weave and heat-sealed seams prevent leaves, sticks and most rainfall from passing through the material. Because the panel is solid rather than mesh, it reduces the amount of water and organic matter entering the pool, simplifying opening-day maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7x7 scrim woven polyethylene blocks particulate debris\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat-sealed seams create a strong, water-resistant bond\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid construction prevents debris from lodging in the pool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack underside limits sunlight to reduce algae-promoting exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this cover stay secure in wind, ice and heavy weather?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the cover ships with a vinyl-coated cable and metal winch and uses rust-resistant aluminum grommets placed every 2 feet to distribute tension.

The Blue Wave Arctic Armor 12-ft x 24-ft oval winter cover is designed for owners of 12x24 oval above-ground pools who want a straightforward, heavy-duty solid cover to reduce spring cleanup and protect their pool from leaves, rain, snow and sunlight. It’s ideal for homeowners who prefer a cable-and-winch anchoring system and who will maintain the cover by clearing heavy snow and draining accumulated water with a pump. Note: this is a debris\/winter cover, not a safety cover—do not walk on it or use it to support weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does this cover fit a 12x24 oval above-ground pool?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes.
