Step Configuration
Details

No Steps

Select this option if your pool has no steps or if you plan to remove your steps before installing the cover. The cover will be built as a single continuous rectangle with no step outcropping added.

This is the simplest option and works for any rectangle pool without a permanent step structure. If you're unsure whether your steps will remain in place, choose the configuration that matches your steps instead.
Details

Center Steps

This option is for standard 4'x8' steps positioned in the center of your pool wall. The step outcropping will be added to the center of that edge, with equal distance from each side.

Measure from each end of the pool wall to the edges of your steps to confirm they're centered before selecting this option. If your steps sit closer to one side, choose one of the offset or flush positions instead.
Additional Info

Before You Order: Double-Check Your Fit
Measure your pool's opening and check your step position to make sure everything lines up. A matching step style alone doesn't guarantee a perfect fit — sizing is what matters most.

Your cover will be made 2 feet larger on each side than your pool opening, so there's no need to add that extra space to your measurements. Just make sure you have enough surrounding deck or concrete to accommodate that overhang.

Included Hardware
Standard stainless-steel springs, brass anchors, stainless steel buckles, an aluminum tamping tool, a hex key and an aluminum installation rod. Additional tools are required for installation. Alternative anchoring hardware may be required for your deck or pool layout.

Product Overview
Our Standard Mesh 95 Safety Pool Cover combines everyday value with the practical features you need when it’s time to close your pool. When properly fitted, installed and secured, it adds a protective barrier over the water while helping keep leaves, twigs and other debris out.

The UV-resistant mesh blocks 95% of sunlight, helping limit the light that encourages algae growth. Rain and melting snow can pass through the fabric, reducing water accumulation on the cover while keeping larger debris out of your pool.

Made in Canada with reinforced webbing and marine-grade polyester thread, the Standard Mesh 95 is built for seasonal outdoor use. Stainless steel springs, brass anchors and anti-rub strips support a durable installation, while multiple colours and step configurations help you find the right option for your backyard.

  • 95% Sunlight Block - Reduce sunlight reaching your pool to help limit algae growth during the off-season.
  • Drain-Through Mesh Design - Rain and melting snow pass through the mesh, helping reduce standing water on the cover. Leaves, twigs and larger debris stay on top for removal.
  • Reinforced for Seasonal Use - UV-resistant mesh, polypropylene webbing and marine-grade polyester thread work together to provide durable seasonal coverage.
  • Made in Canada - Canadian manufacturing combines durable materials with designed for winter pool protection.

Installation & Fit
Professional installation is strongly recommended. The cover must conform to your pool’s shape and be correctly anchored, tensioned and overlapped. Confirm pool dimensions, step layout, deck type and any obstructions before ordering.
Pools with wood decks, pavers, limited deck space, raised walls or water features may require alternative hardware or a specially configured cover. Confirm requirements before purchase. Standard hardware is not suitable for every installation.

Care & Maintenance
Maintain the pool water level within 18 inches below the coping, as required by the manufacturer. Water beneath the cover helps support winter loads.

Inspect the cover and hardware at installation and throughout the season. Recheck tension two to three weeks after the initial installation and follow the manufacturer’s adjustment instructions.

Maintain appropriate pool water chemistry throughout the year. A cover does not replace routine water care.

For the Extreme Solid cover, keep the mesh drain panel clear and adjust strap tension as instructed. Check for standing water and correct drainage issues.

Avoid dragging the cover across rough surfaces. Use manufacturer-specified padding where required, and clean and store the cover according to the care instructions.

Important Safety Information
A safety cover is one part of pool safety and does not eliminate drowning risk. Stay off the cover and always supervise children. Remove the cover completely before using the pool. An unsecured or improperly secured cover is a hazard. Inspect regularly for damage and follow all manufacturer instructions. Failure to follow the instructions may result in injury or drowning.

Peace of mind all season long

A safety cover means you can enjoy your backyard in the off-season without worrying about what's underneath. It's one less thing to think about while you're out there.

More Less

Whether it's pets, guests, or just everyday use of the yard, a secure cover removes the water hazard from the equation entirely. That's the difference between managing a risk and not having one at all.

Made in Canada Quality

Built in Canada to withstand real winters. No overseas shortcuts, just materials and stitching made to last.

More Less

Every seam is hand-stitched with commercial-grade thread built for UV and freeze-thaw resistance. Manufacturing domestically lets us control every spec, something outsourced overseas production can't guarantee.

Blocks 95% of Sunlight. Blocks Algae Too.

A 95% shade block rating cuts off the sunlight algae needs to grow. Less light means a cleaner pool when you open in spring.

More Less

Algae needs sunlight to grow, so blocking it at the source stops growth before it starts. That means less chemical treatment and less scrubbing at opening.

Rated for 500 PSI. Built to Hold.

The cover is rated to withstand 500 PSI of pressure before failure. That strength keeps it secure under weight and everyday wear.

More Less

Burst strength measures how much force the material can take before tearing. A 500 PSI rating means the cover holds up to real-world stress, not just light use.

No Pooling, No Problem

The mesh weave lets rain and melt drain straight through, so water never pools on top. That keeps the cover lighter and easier to manage all season.

More Less

Standing water adds weight a cover isn't designed to hold, straining seams and anchors over time. Mesh eliminates that risk entirely by draining as fast as water lands on it.

Out With the Leaves, In With the Clean

A tight weave keeps leaves, twigs, and debris out of your pool, not just people. Less debris means less cleanup and clearer water when you open for the season.

More Less

The mesh density is fine enough to stop even small debris while still letting rain and melt drain through. That balance keeps the cover from pooling water while still doing its job as a barrier.

Stitched by Hand. Built to Last.

Every seam is hand-stitched by skilled sewers, not run through an automated line built for speed. The result is a level of precision and strength that machines alone can't replicate.

More Less

Each stitch is checked by hand for tension and alignment before a panel moves to the next station. That extra attention means fewer weak points where a cover is most likely to fail over time.

ASTM Certified. Safety You Can Trust.

Every cover meets ASTM F1346, the industry standard for pool safety covers. It's built and tested to keep your pool secure when it's not in use.

More Less

The standard sets requirements for load-bearing capacity, so certified covers must prove they hold real weight. It's safety that's been tested, not just claimed.

Built for Standard Steps. Or None at All.

Preset sizes are designed to fit standard 4' x 8' steps in one of several common configurations. Every color and cover type is also available in a no-steps option.

More Less

Choosing the configuration that matches your steps means a tighter, more accurate fit without custom measuring. If your pool has no steps, simply select the no-steps version in the same color and material.

Double Brass Hardware, Built to Last

High-quality brass hardware resists corrosion and holds up season after season. It keeps every connection secure without weakening over time.

More Less

Brass won't rust or seize the way lower-grade metal hardware can, even with repeated exposure to moisture. That means anchors and straps stay reliable, connection after connection, year after year.
