The cover fabric is made of vinyl with a reinforcing polyester mesh center layer. This gives the product rip-stop protection. The fabric can be coated or laminated and generally has built in UV and chlorine inhibitors.
The fabric comes in varying weights from 14oz to 20oz per square yard.
 
Fabric Life
 
The life of cover fabric is generally between 5 and 7 years, particularly in warmer climates where there is more exposure to the sun and a longer swim season. Following are some factors which affect the life of the cover fabric:
  • Ultra-violet exposure to the sun
  • Improper chemical balance of the pool water
  • Excessive dirt on the fabric causes alkalois and acids to attack the vinyl
  • Use of the cover in near freezing or low temperatures, may cause miniature cracking of the vinyl and may appear as tiny pinhole leaks in the following season
