The material is described as puncture-resistant, which can contribute to longer-lasting performance across summers and other seasonal changes.

Easy setup and ongoing care

Installation is straightforward: drape the cover over the pool and secure it with the rope tie around the top edge. The 10-inch overhang provides extra edge coverage to help resist wind. Drain holes help channel water away after rain, while the puncture-resistant PVC stands up to regular seasonal use. When it is time to remove, detach the rope tie and lift the cover off for storage in a dry area.

Note that results can vary with weather conditions and how the pool is stored. Regularly check the fit before reopening the pool, and reach out to Intex customer support if you have questions about installation or care.
