Mesh sends the winter weather into the pool, which means no pump on the cover but a level that climbs and light that reaches the water. A solid panel like this one keeps all of it out, and in exchange the water it catches has to leave the surface, through the drain and with a pump. Either way the load requirement is the same: ASTM F1346 tests a safety cover on a pool more than 8 ft wide at 485 lb, and this cover is made to meet that standard.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pooltux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48647450034388,"sku":"PT-IG-100401","price":1428.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/54228_1_2017810163540.jpg?v=1789034520"},{"product_id":"12x24-green-royal-mesh-rectangle-safety-cover-15-yr-warranty","title":"PoolTux Royal 12 x 24 ft Mesh Safety Cover, Green, CSPTGME12240","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe same Royal mesh panel in green, cut for a 12 x 24 ft rectangular inground pool with no step.
