Product Information

When it comes to the size of your pool cover, Michael Dean, founder of Pool Research, says it’s “pretty straightforward.” Choose a pool cover that fits both the size and the shape of your pool. Those with freeform-shaped pools “may need multiple covers, a custom cover, or just one big enough to cover all the freeform edges.” A pump is an essential tool when it comes to draining your Summer Waves pool. There are various types of pumps available in the market, but for this task, you need a submersible pump that can operate underwater. It’s easy to remove the cover when you want to take a dip or relax on a floatie—you can cover or uncover your pool in just five minutes or so. The pool cover comes with a 12-year warranty as a bonus. If unsure about chemistry balancing, seek out pool experts who can professionally provide guidance in keeping your pool sanitary and safe for swimming. When Preparing for Winter Storage

The first step to drain your Summer Waves pool is to ensure that all of the power sources are turned off. This includes the pump, filter, and any other electrical equipment that may be connected to the pool. Turning off the power will help prevent any accidents or injuries while draining the pool.When shopping for the best pool cover, you’ll spot a few different types, including safety, mesh, solar, winter, and automatic covers. While searching for the best pool cover for your pool, you may come across automatic pool covers. These are another convenient option because they’ll allow you to operate the cover with a button or switch. That also means they’re more expensive. Dr. Duncan notes, “They provide good protection in terms of children or pets getting in the pool.” She also explains they have many other benefits, noting that “they can prevent heat loss in cooler weather or climates, keep the pool free of debris, reduce evaporation and can decrease the amount of chemicals needed.” Draining your Summer Waves pool before the fall season arrives is crucial to preventing damage and ensuring clean water when you open it again in the spring. Additionally, proper maintenance and safe storage are necessary to prolong the life of your pool and avoid any unnecessary safety risks. When is the Best Time to Drain Your Summer Waves Pool? End of Summer

Several materials exist for pool covers. Dean tells us the least expensive option will be a “thin, tarp-like material, and it’s cheap for a reason.” It’s not very durable, so he advises against it if you’re looking for a safety cover or pools located in “extreme climates.” Some people may think that draining a pool is as easy as pulling the plug and letting the water run out. However, it requires some effort and planning if you want to do it correctly. If you’re not sure where to start or how to go about it, don’t worry – we’ve got you covered! “No matter how big your Summer Waves pool is, draining it safely will only take a couple of hours following these simple steps.” If you have an above-ground pool, you can simply unplug the cord from the electrical outlet. For in-ground pools, locate the circuit breaker for the pool and switch it off. It’s important to follow manufacturer instructions when turning off power sources to avoid any damage to your pool. Disconnect Filter and Pump It’s always recommended to read the manual of your specific pool model for instructions on how to properly drain it. Usually, there will be a plug at the bottom of the pool that can be removed to release the water. Once drained, make sure to dry any remaining moisture to prevent mold or mildew growth during storage. Maintain Water Quality To fold the pool, gather an army of helpers. Firstly, flatten the edges towards the center cautiously while pressing out the remains of trapped air. Be sure to place your helpers in places where they can apply pressure evenly throughout the pool’s interior without causing damage. Once the pool is almost flat, fold it according to its specific shape, creasing at appropriate lines and aligning edges as needed. Store in a Dry Place

Use this cover during the winter when you’re not swimming in or otherwise enjoying the pool. This polyethylene pool cover is solid rather than woven or mesh, so it won’t let water through it. Plus, its seams are sealed with heat, providing even more protection from precipitation. The top of the cover is treated with a coating that resists damage from the sun’s rays. Selecting a hose with the proper diameter ensures that there is an efficient flow of water through the drainage system.” -Alexandra Miliotis Steps to Drain Your Summer Waves Pool Turn Off Power Remember, before storing the pump filter system, prime it with antifreeze substance according to manufacturer instructions to protect them from being damaged due to freezing temperatures.

Many kinds of pool covers exist, including safety covers designed to keep people and pets from falling into the water, winter covers to protect your pool from the elements, solar covers to raise and contain the water’s temperature, and mesh covers primarily meant to keep the pool a bit cleaner. These large, tarp-like accessories keep dirt and debris out of the water and filter, both aiding functionality and making the pool easier to clean. Pool covers can also help your water retain its heat and even minimize evaporation, saving energy because you won't have to heat or refill your pool as frequently. Your pool water will get dirty over time from debris, dead algae cells, and swimmers bringing in unwanted substances like oils and dirt. Pool chemicals also have a finite lifespan and effectiveness. You can rent or buy a pump, depending on how often you use your pool. If you own the pool and plan on using it for several years, buying a quality pump will be a more cost-effective option. However, if you use the pool less frequently, it’s better to rent one instead of investing in something you won’t be using regularly. When shopping for a pool cover, there are a few things you’ll want to consider. Namely, the size, material, and type of pool it’s compatible with (in-ground or above-ground). You should also look for key qualities such as ease of installation, durability, and maneuverability. The cover is specifically meant to keep leaves out of the pool, so the mesh doesn’t provide any safety protection or protection against the weather.

Sometimes, you just want a no-fuss pool cover that won’t blow the budget. In that case, this round pool cover is a good go-to. The cover is meant for an above-ground pool and is sold in nine different sizes, including this 18-foot option. The cover size itself is 21 feet, allowing it to fit neatly over an 18-foot pool. To avoid such scenarios, homeowners must ensure that they’ve effectively drained out all the water while paying attention to every nook and cranny. Seek advice from reputable pool professionals on what to use, where required, to dry your pool fully. “It’s critical to know how to deal with swimming pools and spas during the winter” -Swim University.com Before draining your pool, test the pH level of your pool water and adjust as needed to avoid damaging your pool equipment. Once the water has been completely drained, use a pool brush to remove any dirt or algae stains from the walls. You could also take this opportunity to deep clean the filter system or replace any broken parts. Prepare for Winter Storage

Dean adds that mesh covers are popular; they’re more durable than tarp-style covers, and they protect from debris. He says they can be a decent option for pools indoors. However, he adds that they don’t offer much protection from the sun, and they let water through, “which can mess with your pool chemistry pretty badly.” It’s made up of thousands of bubbles in a resin material and promises to absorb and hold onto heat from the sun’s UV rays. This means you can cover up the pool after a day of fun in the sun, and the water will stay warm for your next dive (or belly flop). However, it’s not a safety cover, so you may want to skip it if you have little ones around the pool regularly.It’s not going to hold up to anyone standing on it, and it won’t keep out precipitation. Because of this, the cover may not be for you if you’re concerned about keeping out the rain or preventing the pool water from evaporating. Still, you can pair it with a winter cover as soon as autumn approaches to provide double protection for your pool. Once the pool has been cleared of debris, drain the water completely using either the attached drainage valve found at the bottom of the pool or a pump. Once the water is out, rinse the sides and bottom of the pool with a high-pressure hose attachment to remove any built-up grime and bacteria. Be sure the pool is completely dry before deflating it. Deflate and Fold Pool The cover is a polyethylene, two-ply mesh material that’s made for safety. Keep in mind that the mesh material does let water into the pool, though it fends off falling leaves and other debris you don’t want to see floating in your pool. Some things to keep in mind while disposing of water:• Avoid releasing chlorinated water into natural watersheds Made out of laminated polyethylene sheeting with high-density polyethylene stitches, it will keep out falling leaves in the autumn, snow in the winter, and rain in the spring and summer months. It’s lightweight and treated to resist UV rays. However, since the material is lightweight, it may not be as durable for pools in climates that receive tons of snow.
