Unlike solid covers, mesh construction lets water drain through so you avoid large water buildup on top and benefit from a cover that performs well in windy locations. The cover ships with 3 feet of overlap (27 ft overall) to make installation easier and to accommodate most traditional above-ground pool top rails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does a mesh winter cover differ from a solid cover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMesh covers allow precipitation to pass through the fabric into the pool rather than collecting on top. That reduces the need to pump off accumulated meltwater, and the cover sits in the pool water to resist wind uplift. However, mesh covers will let fine dust and some debris through, so more spring cleaning is typically needed compared with solid covers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDrains rain and melting snow into the pool, avoiding heavy water loads on top.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePerforms better in windy areas since the material sinks into the water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRequires a bit more vacuuming and skimming at spring opening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot intended for use as a summer debris cover—designed for winter protection only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat materials and construction make this cover durable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dura-Guard mesh is woven from heavy polyethylene with a 10 x 10 scrim and weighs about 3.1 ounces per square yard. That increased fabric weight and higher scrim count provide enhanced tear resistance and longevity compared with standard mesh covers. Robelle also builds the product 55% heavier than many alternatives and backs it with a 10-year warranty for long-term peace of mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.1 oz\/sq yd heavy polyethylene for improved strength.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10 x 10 scrim weave to resist tearing and stretching.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConstructed 55% heavier than many industry-standard covers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIndustry-leading 10-year warranty from Robelle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I install and secure the 24 ft Dura-Guard cover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover includes a winch and cable that thread through perimeter grommets so you can cinch it tight around the pool. Overlap is three feet—so a 24 ft pool cover totals 27 ft of material—giving easier reach over standard top rails.
