The Bestway Premium round pool cover is a high-quality protective accessory specifically engineered for 5.49-meter (18 ft.) above-ground frame pools. By creating a reliable barrier over the water surface, this cover effectively prevents leaves, debris, and dirt from entering the pool, which significantly reduces the time required for manual cleaning and maintenance. Its robust construction ensures that your pool water remains cleaner for longer periods, ultimately helping to optimize chemical usage and protect the integrity of your pool equipment throughout the swimming season.
Advantages
This premium cover stands out due to its advanced Polar-Shield technology, which allows it to remain durable and functional even in harsh weather conditions, including temperatures as low as -25ºC. The integrated wind-resistant tightening mechanism provides a secure fit, ensuring the cover stays firmly in place during windy days. Furthermore, the material is highly resistant to tearing and UV damage, offering long-term reliability. The inclusion of strategically placed drain holes is a critical feature that prevents the accumulation of rainwater, thereby avoiding excessive weight and potential stretching of the cover material.
Suitable for
- 5.49 m (18 ft.) round above-ground frame pools
- Steel Pro MAX and APX 365 pool models
- Long-term protection during off-season or extended periods of non-use
- Preventing debris accumulation in outdoor environments
When it may not be suitable
This cover is specifically designed for 5.49-meter round frame pools and will not provide a proper or secure fit for pools of different shapes, sizes, or construction types, such as inflatable ring pools. It is not intended to serve as a safety cover for children or pets and should not be relied upon to prevent accidental submersion.
Key specifications
- Compatibility: 5.49 m (18 ft.) round above-ground pools
- Temperature resistance: Down to -25ºC (-13ºF)
- Material features: Polar-Shield enhanced, tear-resistant, UV-resistant
- Security: Wind-resistant tightening mechanism with lever release
- Maintenance features: Integrated drain holes to prevent water pooling
How to use
To install the cover, drape it evenly over the surface of your pool. Utilize the integrated tightening mechanism by pulling the cord to secure the cover snugly around the frame of the pool. Press the lever to loosen the mechanism when you need to remove the cover. Ensure that the drain holes are unobstructed to allow rainwater to pass through rather than pooling on the surface.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify the exact diameter of your pool to ensure it matches the 5.49 m requirement
- Confirm your pool type is a frame pool for proper compatibility
- Assess your local weather conditions to ensure the cover is stored correctly during extreme storms
Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the cover for any debris buildup on top and clear it away to prevent unnecessary strain. When not in use, store the cover in a dry, shaded area to maximize its lifespan and maintain the integrity of the material.
