6 Reasons You Need a Safety Cover

As we head toward fall, you may wonder when you should cover your pool and with what? This article answers those questions!

For the first question, you want to close and cover your pool when it’s right for you. Some pool owners like to swim through the fall and enjoy a heated pool, while others like to close in early October. We always suggest closing late and opening early to ensure the best pool water.

Onto the second question of what to cover your pool with, we look at the safety cover. Here are six reasons you need one.

Six Reasons You Need a Safety Cover

With our Latham safety covers, you can count on them to keep pets and children safe. Safety covers also keep your pool clean of debris throughout the winter, making it easier and less costly to open your pool in the spring.

Safety covers are very strong and can hold, in many cases, the weight of a car or even an elephant. This makes it safer than other types of covers if a child or a pet were to walk on it accidentally.

Here are the six reasons you want a safety cover:

  1. Kids and pets don’t have access to the water and drowning.
  2. It protects your pool, keeping dirt and debris out.
  3. It looks nice and neat. Safety covers have a sleek look when fitted properly.
  4. Safety covers have a superior fit. Our Latham covers are custom-made just for your pool.
  5. Safety covers are incredibly durable and last for years.
  6. They are cost-effective and a price investment that protects your pool and your family.
