Winter Cover vs Safety Cover : Review and Comparison

Depending on where you live, pool season may be coming to an end (we’re sorry!!). If you are preparing to close your pool for the year, you have likely considered a cover. But what type of cover do you buy? Today we will take a look at winter cover vs safety cover to determine which option is best suited for your needs.

Winter Covers


 
Winter Covers provide you with a great way to keep your pool healthy, clean, and running smoothly through the fall and winter seasons. Winter covers work with both above ground or in ground swimming pools. Using a winter cover protects your pool from dirt and debris, blocks sunlight to fend off algae growth, and help keep children and pets out of the pool.





Winter Cover Pros:

  • Very affordable
  • Can be uses on both in-ground and above ground pools
  • No need to drill anchor points around your pool (like with safety cover)
  • Reduces evaporation
  • Prevents pet access
  • Lowers chemical use
  • Keeps pool free from debris
  • Easy opening in the spring

Winter Cover Cons:

  • Does not last as long as safety cover
  • Does not provide the same level as safety for children

Safety Covers


Keep your swimming pool protected from accidental entry while keeping it clear of dirt and debris this winter season with a Safety Cover. 

Safety Cover Pros:

  • Very durable and long-lasting
  • Keeps pool debris-free
  • Reduces evaporation
  • Safeguard pets and children
  • Inhibits algae growth
  • Keeps pool free from debris
  • Easy opening in the spring

Safety Cover Cons:

  • Does not work for above-ground pools
  • Installation is more complicated than winter cover
