Install an arctic armor leaf net over your winter cover this fall and make spring opening quick and easy. The leaf net's tight mesh traps even the smallest leaves before they reach your winter cover. Other brands of leaf nets have larger mesh that allows small leaves to pass through to your winter cover and decompose in the spring. Simply lay leaf net on top of your winter cover when you close your pool and remove it in november before the first snow. Your cover will be virtually leaf free and spring clean-up will be a snap. Eliminates that messy swamp of decaying leaves! Arctic armor leaf nets are made from durable woven polyethylene, come with loops every four feet to secure water bags. If you live in an area where leaves are a problem invest in a quality arctic armor leaf net. Above-ground leaf nets have an extra 3-foot overlap, rip proof metal grommets spaced 30 inches apart and include a cable and winch to hold it securely in place over your winter cover. Made of a black mesh fabric.
