Frequently asked questions

Are Robelle winter covers safety covers?

Traditional tarp-style winter covers are not safety covers unless specifically certified and installed as such.

How much overlap should a winter cover have?

Use the product's listed cover dimensions and installation instructions because overlap varies by pool type.

What is the purpose of an air pillow?

On above-ground pools, it helps manage ice expansion and supports cover shape when installed correctly.

How are inground winter covers secured?

Traditional designs commonly use water tubes or bags around the deck perimeter.

What does a solar cover do?

It reduces evaporation and helps retain heat while floating directly on the water.

Should the bubbles face up or down?

For standard bubble covers, the bubble side usually faces the water; verify the product instructions.

Can a cover pump be left unattended?

Only use an automatic pump according to its manual and inspect the cover, cord, hose and outlet regularly.

How should a winter cover be stored?

Clean and dry it before folding, then store it away from sharp objects, chemicals and rodents.
