If you're looking for a way to ensure the safety of your family and protect your swimming pool from debris, dirt, and other contamination then investing in a safety cover is a great option. Safety covers act as physical barriers between swimmers and the water source which can reduce injury or illness that could result from accidental immersion. For those who are interested in purchasing such protection, understanding how to determine the right size can be crucial. That’s why we've created this blog post - to provide an overview on properly measuring for a safety cover. Keep reading to learn more!

215 Sinter Court oungstown, Ohio 44510
MEASURING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1
Sketch the inside dimensions of the pool (see example) on the next page. Include all
STEP 2
Using chalk, establish two points A and B (see example). Be sure that A is on the LEFT and B is on the RIGHT while facing the pool. The distance between them should be roughly 2/3 the length of the pool. (i.e. if the pool is 30 ft., make
STEP 3
Make a chalk mark (number each mark) at roughly three (3) foot intervals around the entire pool. Be certain to number all corners, rail locations (front and back of rails), fill spouts, or other obstructions if they are not removable. Mark all points along spa side and pool side of diving wall. Mark areas at one (1) foot intervals when tight radius, rocks, raised walls, waterfalls, or similar obstructions are encountered. Diagrams with these types of obstructions should be accompanied by a photograph. Include width of spa wall or distance between spa and pool, if separate.
STEP 4
Attach a tape measure to point A. (Pull tape tightly on each measurement). Now measure distance from point A to point 1, then point A to point 2, and so on. List measurements in corresponding columns on the next page (see example). Move tape to point B, and measure in the same fashion; point B to point 1, and so on. Tape should be level and not angel up or down any elevation.
STEP 5
Pick two (2) numbered points representing the overall length of the pool at the water line (see example). List this measurement. Do the same for the overall width of the pool. These measurements are crucial as they act as check points to ensure all other measurements are correct.
