Denim Blue Winter Pool Cover for 25 ft x 45 ft Inground Pool - Solid

In this review of the Denim Blue Value Plus Choice winter pool cover, the bottom line is simple: it is for inground pool owners who need a durable, solid winter barrier that keeps debris out and resists harsh weather. The reviewer found the cover's woven, laminated polyethylene construction and heavy black underside coating deliver reliable protection against sun, snow, ice and wind, making it a strong seasonal choice for regions with severe winters. This review focuses on fit, material quality and ease of use for a 25 ft x 45 ft pool.

Key Features

• Solid winter protection: The solid material keeps dirt, leaves and branches from decaying in the pool all winter, reducing spring cleanup time.
• Durable construction: Woven, laminated polyethylene with an 8 x 8 scrim count and 2.36 oz/yd2 material weight provides extra strength and long-lasting wear.
• Thick underside coating: The industry-thick black underside coating adds UV and moisture resistance to protect the pool below the cover.
• Generous overlap: A 5 ft overlap on a 30 ft x 50 ft total cover size helps ensure secure coverage beyond the 25 ft x 45 ft pool dimensions.
• Secure attachment points: Loops every 4 ft and reinforced binding with metal grommets at corners make it straightforward to anchor with water tubes or tie-downs.
• Sunlight protection treatment: The cover is treated to resist sunlight degradation, helping preserve material integrity through repeated winters.

Who It's For

The Denim Blue Value Plus Choice cover is best for owners of rectangular inground pools sized 25 ft x 45 ft who want a solid winter cover that blocks debris and withstands harsh weather. It suits homeowners in northern climates or any area with heavy snowfall, ice buildup, or strong winds who prefer a robust, low-visibility cover.

Those who should look elsewhere include owners of irregularly shaped pools with large protruding steps where exact fit matters, or buyers who want a safety-rated mesh cover that allows water through. Also, anyone expecting included water tubes should note they are sold separately.
