How to Remove a Leaf Pool Cover

5 Steps to Remove a Leaf Pool Cover

Whether you have a Leaf Cover with our without a Safety Net underneath it, removal is the same. Follow these 5 simple steps to remove your Leaf Cover.

Step 1

Remove any large debris, such as sticks and branches, from the surface of the cover with a leaf blower or broom.

Step 2

Unhook the bungees from the cover and remove each one.

Step 3

Fold any edges of the cover over onto the cover.

Step 4

Hook your leaf cover to the roller (if you have a small leaf cover, a roller may not be necessary)

Step 5

Roll the leaf cover up onto the net & store the cover in a clean & dry place that is free from rodents, pets, heat, etc.

Removing a Leaf Cover with a Safety Net

If you have a Safety Net installed underneath your Leaf Cover, removal is easy. The safety net holds the leaf cover up out of the water during removal so the cover slides across the net while removing.

Removing a Leaf Cover with No Safety Net

If you have purchased a Leaf Cover with no Safety Net underneath or you opted to use your Leaf Cover without your Safety Net on your pool, removal is the same as it would be if you had the Safety Net underneath. However, the cover will float on the pool while you are removing it, which will add some weight to the cover while rolling it up. If you are struggling with the weight of the water on the cover while rolling it up, change your standing position to behind the roller.
