How to Clean a Mesh Pool Cover & Safety
Covering your pool during the winter months keeps it safe from debris. A mesh safety cover over your pool also keeps children and animals from falling into the cold pool. The mesh allows snow and rain to fall through the cover while trapping leaves and other debris on top. Cleaning the mesh pool cover before you remove it in the spring makes for easier storage.
