It’s aimed at those who want a solid, long-lasting off-season barrier built with a high scrim count and heavier material, plus the convenience of an included winch and generous overlap. If you have unusually tall top rails or plan to use the cover during the swimming season for debris control, consider sizing up or choosing a different seasonal product.\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: Is this cover waterproof?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes—it's a solid winter cover that prevents water from passing through the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does the cover include hardware for installation?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes—the package includes a winch and cable; additional clips or wrap are optional for extra security.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Robelle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56801439678804,"sku":"B07DX64MYF","price":237.21,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1063\/2652\/4244\/files\/robelle-galaxy-front-view.jpg?v=1786741792","url":"https:\/\/gardenluxe.co.uk\/products\/robelle-28-ft-galaxy-extra-heavy-duty-pool-cover-for-above-ground-pools-teal-black-winch-cable-4-ft-overlap","provider":"Gardenluxe Uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
