Description
Closing a pool for winter should not mean months of cleanup or a green pool in spring. The Blue Wave Arctic Armor 21-ft Round Above Ground Pool Winter Cover is a heavy-duty solid pool tarp built to handle everything the off-season brings, so you can close up in fall and return to a cleaner pool when spring arrives. It’s made with a 7x7 scrim woven polyethylene, a dense, tear- resistant material that forms a solid barrier against leaves, sticks, rain, and snow. The reinforced, heat-sealed seams form a watertight bond across the cover to block moisture and debris and help prevent rips. Because the panel is solid rather than mesh, it keeps water from passing through and limits evaporation over winter. The black underside blocks sunlight throughout the off-season to help limit dirt buildup in the pool, which reduces the maintenance work needed at opening time. Securing the cover is straightforward. The rust-resistant aluminum grommets spaced every 2 feet work with the included vinyl-coated cable and metal winch to lock the cover down evenly, withstanding strong winds, rain, and snow. This winter cover is sized for 21-ft round above-ground pools with an extra 4-ft overlap for a snug, wind-resistant fit; a helper speeds installation on a pool this size. This is a winter debris cover, not a safety cover. Do not walk on it or allow it to support weight. After a heavy snow, clear the buildup from the pool edge with a soft-bristle broom. To keep the pool cleaner, use a cover pump to remove standing water that collects on top of the cover after storms. Backed by Blue Wave’s 8-year limited warranty (full coverage in year 1 and prorated coverage in years 2 through 8), U.S.-based customer support and over 35 years of pool industry experience. This swimming pool cover is sized for 21-ft round pools only. Complete with securing hardware, including the winch and cable, so everything needed for installation is in the box.

Blue Wave 8-Year 24-ft Round Above Ground Pool Winter Cover
Size: 24' (Round)
I’ve been using the Blue Wave 8-Year 24-ft round winter cover for my above-ground pool, and it’s been a dependable option for getting through harsh winters without worrying about damage or cleanup in the spring. The first thing I noticed is how solid the material feels. It’s made from woven polyethylene with a reinforced scrim, so it doesn’t feel flimsy at all—it’s built to handle snow, wind, and debris without tearing easily. The heat-sealed seams add to that durability, helping it hold up through the entire season . The 4-foot overlap is a big advantage. It gives you plenty of extra material to secure the cover tightly, and the grommets spaced around the edge make it easy to lock everything down with the included cable and winch. Once it’s on, it stays put—even during rough weather . Another standout feature is the solid design with the black underside. It does a great job blocking sunlight, which helps reduce algae growth and keeps the pool water cleaner by spring. It also keeps out leaves, dirt, and other debris, so opening the pool later is much less of a hassle . Installation is pretty straightforward, though like most pool covers, it’s easier with two people just to get everything centered evenly. Once in place, it requires minimal adjustment. Overall, this is a great value winter cover. It’s not the absolute heaviest-duty option on the market, but it strikes a really nice balance between durability, protection, and price. If you want a reliable cover that will protect your pool through winter without overspending, this one gets the job done very well.

Light-duty polyethlene cover
Size: 21' (Round)
I have a 21' above ground pool so I ordered the 21' cover. The cover is actually 25' in diameter so it fits my pool perfectly with plenty of overhang even with an air pillow underneath it. Be aware that you get what you pay for. This cover is made from run-of-the-mill nylon/polyester mesh fabric with a polyethlene coating (the same as those cheap blue poly tarps from the hardware store). I seriously doubt that this tarp will last more than one or two seasons (my previous cover lasted one season and it was made of the same material). The "8-year" warranty is very misleading. Year 1 is 100% covered, year 2 is 50% off retail, year 3 is 40% off retail, year 4 is 30% off retail, year 5 is 20% off retail, year 6 is 15% off retail, year 7 is 10% off retail, and year 8 is 5% off retail. But, again, this is an inexpensive cover and should get the job done for a season or two. It fits perfectly and I'm happy with my purchase. UPDATE 10/31/2014 ================= The cover worked well for one winter season. We removed the cover in the Spring, hosed it off, and stored it in our crawl space until this Autumn. We closed down our pool and re-installed the cover about a month ago. We noticed that there was always a layer of water on top of the cover even after we pumped it dry. We just figured it was rain or dew buildup, but after a dry spell there was still a lot of water on top of the cover. We ended up buying another (same) cover and spent a great deal of time siphoning off the water and removing the old cover to install the new cover. While doing this we noticed lots of tiny holes in the old cover which is how the water was seeping on top. We got the new cover installed and everything is good now. Bottom line: the cover that we purchased a year ago only lasted one season. We're now on our second cover and we expect it to only last one season as well. This cover is pretty inexpensive so you get what you pay for. UPDATE: 09/19/2016 ===================================== I've now gone through THREE of these covers. The first two each lasted about two seasons (which, honestly, is what I was expecting). But the third cover didn't even make it through one season. A few months after covering our pool, the weave began to separate and water would leak up through the cover. Very poor quaity in my opinion. Third time's the charm, we will not order this over again.

Cover it
Size: 28' (Round)
This is the 1st pool cover I have been able to use for more than 1 year, held up through the winter, I’m glad I got the bigger size made it easier to tighten it down

Cover could be more durable
Size: 28' (Round)
This pool winter cover was easy to install but it does take two people. One person needs to go around the pool to insert the red wire in and out of the holes while the other person helps feed the wire and to hold the cover so it doesn't fall into the pool. Once all of the wire in inserted in the holes, you tighten it by simply turning the mental clamp that is provided. The downside to this tarp is it could be more durable and thinker. I have purchased this same cover in the past and if you have a hard winter with a lot of snow and wind, the cover can take a beating and develop holes over time. I would say this cover will last a couple of seasons if you take care of it. I do like the price of this cover and the lightweight of the cover to make it easier lifting it up over the pool rails. I do suggest using a pool pillow of some sort under the cover to make draining the water and leaves off a lot faster and easier when you are ready to open the pool back up in the spring.

Very thin
Size: 24' (Round)
Serves it purpose will see how it lasts gets pin holes in it if you aren't careful putting cover clips on and warranty isn't worth the hassle after one year they will only reimburse 50% and your responsible for shipping from what the paper in the box says

An extremely poor quality product!!!
Size: 28' (Round)
This product is extremely thin, and once we had our pool covered and were walking around to tie it down we noticed that one of the grommets was actually squished together something flattened it and also after tying down the water containers to the grommets, I noticed that four of them already had pulled away from the surrounding material. I will be lucky if I get the season out of this. It took us approximately an hour+ to apply the cover and tie it down because we have a built-in deck surrounding the pool, so need to cover the pool with the overhang and tie water containers onto the grommets to keep the pool cover secure. Didn’t even get an hours use out of this cover. I’ve had the pool for 21 years and have used numerous covers over those years usually getting four seasons minimum out of each cover. This particular one didn’t even get 15 minutes! This is an extreme poor quality product. I would not recommend at all!!
