Water will not puddle on your cover. Both Secure a Pool mesh and ProMesh covers are water permeable, allowing water and snowmelt to pass through the cover. HyperLite Solid covers come equipped with either a central drain to allow water to drain directly into the pool or a pump system to remove water from the cover directly. Pool Guard recommends that you check the water level of your pool frequently during the off-season to ensure the water level does not come in contact with your safety cover.
