Product details

The PoolTux WTB-1019 is a 4 foot by 8 foot equalizer pillow for use under an in ground pool winter cover.

What it is there for

Water expands when it freezes, and a covered pool full of ice pushes outward on everything around it. The pillow gives that expansion somewhere to go. Set in the water beneath the cover, it compresses as the ice grows and keeps the load off the pool structure.

Using it

Float the pillow near the center of the pool before the cover goes on. Inflate it to about three quarters rather than firm, so it still has room to squash. A side benefit is the shape it gives the cover, which helps rain and melt run to the edges instead of pooling in the middle.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What size is this pillow?
4 feet by 8 feet.
What does an equalizer pillow do?
It sits in the water under the winter cover and takes up the expansion of ice, so the pressure goes into the pillow rather than into the pool structure.
Where does it go?
Under the cover, floating in the pool, positioned toward the center.
Should I inflate it fully?
No. Inflating to roughly three quarters leaves the pillow room to compress, which is the whole point of it.
