It’s always a great time to consider investing in a mesh safety cover for your pool, instead of the winter pool cover with waterbags. The mesh safety covers are safer, nicer to look at, convenient, and allow the startup and opening process to be simpler since the pool will already be full so the system can startup right away.
In addition to our swimming pool closing services in Salem, MI, we can also provide a complimentary quote for a safety cover.
