Robelle Inground Pool Winter Cover 20 x 40 ft Green — Solid Heavy-Duty Dura-Guard, 10-Year Warranty

Robelle's 20 x 40 ft Dura-Guard is a heavy-duty solid winter cover built to shield inground pools from snow, ice, leaves and winter debris while floating securely on the water.

Designed for seasonal pool protection, this Robelle Dura-Guard cover uses a reinforced polyethylene weave and a high-thread scrim to deliver long-lasting strength. The cover is a solid, non-permeable barrier — it prevents water from passing through the material — and comes with generous overlap and perimeter loops to accept water weights (sold separately) for a safe, reliable installation.

How durable is the Robelle Dura-Guard compared with typical winter covers?

The Dura-Guard is constructed with heavier-than-standard material and a tight woven scrim to resist tearing and wear over multiple winters. Robelle specifies both material weight and scrim count as the primary indicators of cover longevity.

• Material weight: 2.36 oz./yd² (≈80 g/m²) for added thickness.
• Scrim weave: 8 x 8 threads per square inch for enhanced tear resistance.
• Construction: approx. 18% heavier than common industry options.
• Warranty: includes a 10-year limited warranty from Robelle.

What size coverage and overlap does this 20 x 40 ft cover provide?

The cover is sized to fit a 20 x 40 ft inground pool and includes an extra five feet of material on every side to simplify installation and accommodate pool edges. This overlap reduces the need to pull the cover tightly across the deck and helps secure the perimeter with water weights.

• Nominal pool fit: 20 x 40 ft.
• Included overlap: 5 feet around the pool (total cover size 25 x 45 ft).
• Tip: order one size up if your pool has steps, benches or raised features.
• Installation uses water tubes through sewn perimeter loops (water tubes sold separately).

How should I install and maintain the solid winter cover to get best results?

Robelle recommends using only water weights through the cover's sewn loops for correct, low-stress installation. The cover is intended to float loosely on the water surface; avoid overstretching the fabric and keep excess material folded under the weights rather than stretched across the deck.

• Install: place cover over pool, align overlap, feed water tubes through loops around edge.
• Do not use: anchors, springs, or other fasteners — only water-filled tubes.
• Deck protection: fold or pad any section contacting sharp corners or rough decking.
• Seasonal use: designed for off-season protection, not as a summer debris cover.

What colors, side orientation, and extra features should I expect?

The Dura-Guard has a green exterior surface with a black underside to help block light and inhibit algae growth under the cover. Perimeter loops are factory-installed for water weights, and the robust weave helps shed snow and ice loads when combined with proper installation.

• Color: green topside, black underside.
• Perimeter: sewn loops for water tubes included on the cover.
• Function: solid design blocks light and most debris from entering the pool.
• Accessory: water tubes (weights) are required but sold separately.

Who is this cover for? Homeowners with an inground pool who need a dependable, heavy-duty winter barrier will appreciate the Dura-Guard’s reinforced weave, broad overlap, and decade-long warranty. It’s ideal for pools without protruding steps (or for buyers who select the next size up to accommodate steps), and for anyone who prefers a solid, non-permeable cover installed with water weights to protect the pool through the off-season.
