Which type of pool cover is the best choice?

The best cover is the one that will come closest to meeting your needs and preferences. Aside from getting the right size and shape, you must consider the purpose. Mesh covers keep debris out of the pool. Solar covers help to keep your pool warmer and heat the water as cooler weather begins. Safety covers provide additional protection against heavy snow loads and do a decent job of keeping debris, water and moisture from weather out of the pool. Automatic covers do a great job of keeping debris and unwanted guests out of the pool. They also double as solar covers because they help to keep the water warmer in cool weather.

There are quite a few choices availably with regard to brand, styles, quality, durability, warranty status and pricing. The most expensive is not necessarily the best, nor is the cheapest option likely to be a long lasting cover. Consider what is the most important to you and how much you are planning to budget for the product. This will help you to decide which pool cover will work the best for you.
