{"product_id":"18x36-solid-rectangle-winter-cover-king","title":"PoolTux King 18'x36' Solid Rectangle Winter Cover, 15 Year Warranty","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the PoolTux King solid winter cover for an 18 by 36 foot rectangular inground pool. The cover itself measures 21 by 41 feet, which is what gives the 5 foot overlap needed to run water tubes around the perimeter and hold it down through the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it is built\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is an 8 mil triple laminated polyethylene cover, silver on the top face and black underneath, with heat sealed seams. The edge is unbound. Being a solid cover, it blocks light and keeps leaves, dirt and rain out of the water entirely, which is the difference between opening to clear water in spring and opening to a green pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat else you need\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater tubes are what anchor a solid cover on an inground pool, and they are not supplied with it. Because rain and snowmelt collect on top rather than draining through, most owners also run a cover pump over the winter so the weight does not pull the cover into the pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty level\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKing is the 15 year tier in the PoolTux range. The same 18 by 36 size is offered at other warranty levels, so compare how long you expect to keep the pool against what you want to spend now.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pooltux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48633781223636,"sku":"GPC-70-8257","price":122.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_c7cc19ed-ad6f-4650-a404-52adf29c60c4.jpg?v=1788816189","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/18x36-solid-rectangle-winter-cover-king","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
