This Robelle Super Winter Pool Cover is a solid polyethylene cover woven with an 8 x 8 scrim and a material weight of 2.36 oz.\/yd², offering a heavier construction than many standard covers. It arrives in an imperial blue topside with a black underside, includes a winch and cable, and provides a generous four-foot overlap to simplify installation around traditional above-ground top rails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this cover stand up to winter weather and debris?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Robelle Super Winter Pool Cover is a solid cover that blocks water and debris from passing through the fabric, so leaves, snow and ice stay on top of the cover rather than in your pool.

Choose the next size up if your pool has unusually large top rails or if you need extra slack for a secure float.
