Premium Winter Cover for Swimming Pools made in Quebec

Protect your pool effectively during the winter with this premium winter cover made in Quebec.

Made of UV-treated high-density polyethylene, this mesh-style cover helps retain leaves, branches, and debris while providing a higher blackout rate than a standard net.

Lightweight, durable, and easy to handle, it simplifies closing the pool in the fall and opening it in the spring.

Superior winter protection

This cover offers a vertical blackout rate of 88 %, compared with approximately 40% for some standard nets.

This enhanced coverage helps:

• Limit the amount of light reaching the water
• Reduce the accumulation of leaves and debris
• Protect the pool interior during the winter
• Make opening cleanup easier
• Extend the life of the pool’s interior cover

The cover is designed as a winter cover and leaf net. It is not a safety cover and must never be used to support the weight of a person or animal.

Quebec manufacturing

This winter cover is made in Quebec to meet the needs of pool owners facing Canadian winter conditions.

Key benefits

• Made in Quebec
• Design adapted to harsh winters
• Durable manufacturing
• Superior-quality materials
• Dimensions compliant with industry standards

UV-treated high-density polyethylene

The cover is made of high-density polyethylene stabilized against ultraviolet rays.

This material offers:

• Good resistance to the elements
• Better protection against sun-related deterioration
• Excellent resistance to seasonal handling
• A long service life when properly installed and stored
• A lightweight and sturdy construction

Its black color also helps reduce light penetration into the pool during the winter.

Lightweight and easy to install

Despite its sturdy construction, the cover remains lightweight and easy to handle.

It makes it easier to:

• Positioning around the pool
• Securing during closing
• Removal in the spring
• Cleaning
• Folding and storage

Proper installation helps keep the cover securely positioned despite wind, rain, and precipitation.

Dimensions suited to the lowered water level

The cover is cut with extra material to account for the drop in water level when closing the pool.

Planned excess

• Above-ground pool: approximately 4 additional ft
• Inground pool: approximately 5 additional ft

This excess allows the cover to descend toward the lowered water level without creating excessive tension on the edges.

The dimensions must always be confirmed before ordering.

For above-ground or inground pools

The premium winter cover is available in various sizes to fit several types of pools.

It can be used with:

• Round above-ground pools
• Oval above-ground pools
• Rectangular inground pools
• Certain uniquely shaped pools, depending on the available dimensions

It is important to choose the size that corresponds to the pool’s exact shape and dimensions.

Recommended checks before purchase

Before ordering, check:

• The shape of the pool
• The exact length and width
• The diameter for a round pool
• The maximum dimensions for an oval pool
• The expected water level during the winter
• The available space around the pool
• The fastening system used

For an irregularly shaped inground pool, a custom cover may be necessary.

Recommended installation

For an above-ground pool
