Product Specifications

16 FT Round Above Ground Pool Cover — Orange — Ratchet Strap

A storm-ready 16 ft round pool cover in bold orange, built to handle real backyard weather all season long.

Real backyard weather doesn't care whether your pool cover is convenient — it just tests whether the cover actually works. The FairCovers 16 FT Round Pool Cover is built to handle that testing. The ratchet strap system holds firm through storms and strong wind, and the UV-resistant fabric keeps its strength and color instead of fading out halfway through summer.

We finished this one in a bold orange trim, which makes it easy to spot around the yard and adds a bit of visual pop to your pool setup. Underneath that trim is the same heavy-duty construction you'd expect from a cover built to actually protect a 16 ft pool, not just decorate it.

Installing or removing it takes minutes, no extra hands required — so you can spend less time fussing with your cover and more time actually enjoying the water.

Q&A

Q1: Is this pool cover waterproof? Will it block leaves and debris?

A: Yes, absolutely. Our pool covers are engineered from heavy-duty, commercial-grade waterproof and UV-resistant fabric with reinforced seams. It provides a 100% barrier against rain, falling leaves, dust, and debris, keeping your pool water crystal clear and reducing evaporation when not in use.

Q2: Will the cover blow away in high winds? How does it stay secured?

A: Not at all. To withstand harsh weather, our pool covers feature reinforced, rust-proof heavy-duty grommets combined with high-elastic windproof drawstrings (or a heavy-duty water bag/anchor system, depending on the model). The double-stitched overlapping hems ensure a snug, wind-resistant fit that stays securely in place even during severe storms.

Q3: How do I clean and store the pool cover properly?

A: Maintenance is simple. Just hose off any dirt or leaves, and gently scrub with a soft brush and mild soapy water if needed (avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing). Crucially, make sure the cover is completely dry before folding and storing it in a cool, dry place to prevent mold or mildew growth.
