The solid panel design prevents leaves and twigs from entering the pool, while the black underside reduces light penetration to slow algae and dirt buildup. Included grommets, a vinyl-coated steel cable, and a ratcheting winch provide secure attachment; sewn loops let you add water tubes for a snug fit without drilling into the deck.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this cover keep my pool cleaner through winter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solid Arctic Armor fabric blocks leaves, pine needles, and most airborne debris from reaching the water, and the black underside limits sunlight to slow grime accumulation.
