Pool Safety Covers We Install
Net Positive installs custom safety covers built to fit your pool and how you use it. There are two primary types to choose from: mesh safety covers and solid safety covers.
Mesh safety covers let water through but block debris, which helps prevent algae and simplifies spring opening. Solid safety covers block all sunlight and contaminants, and some feature drain panels or automatic release systems.
We’ll help you find the custom safety cover that meets your specific needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a safety cover and a winter cover?
A winter cover sits on top of the water and is usually held down by water bags or weights. It keeps some debris out but offers no real safety. A safety cover anchors into the pool deck and is built to support weight, so it guards against accidental falls while it keeps your pool covered.
Are mesh or solid safety covers better for pools?
Both work well, and the better pick depends on your priorities. A mesh cover lets water drain through and is lighter to handle. A solid cover, such as a solid vinyl cover, blocks all sunlight and keeps out fine debris, which slows algae growth even more. We can talk through both for your pool area and your setup.
Can safety covers be used on pools with irregular shapes?
Yes. We offer custom pool covers for almost any pool shape, including freeform and other unique feature pools. Each custom cover is measured to your exact pool so it fits snugly and anchors securely.
How long does it take to install a safety pool cover?
Most installations are finished in a single visit once the cover is made for your pool. The first step is measuring your existing pool and deck, then the cover and anchors are fitted during the installation.
Do pool safety covers require maintenance?
Very little. Clear off leaves and standing water now and then, and check the straps and anchors once in a while. High-quality materials and hardware keep a safety cover working for years with minimal upkeep.
Do safety covers affect pool heating or water temperature?
Yes, in a good way. A cover cuts water evaporation, which is one of the biggest sources of heat loss, so it helps hold water temperature and lowers heating costs when the pool is covered.
Is a safety cover required for residential pools in South Carolina?
Pool barrier rules in South Carolina are set by local building codes, and most require a pool fence or similar barrier around a residential pool. A safety cover adds protection and acts as a pool guard over the water, but it does not always replace a required fence. Check with your local building authority, and we are happy to help you understand your options.
