Meyco Safety Swimming Pool CoversSafety for children and pets, the major concern for every pool owner, was the motivating factor in Meyco's development of the mesh cover back in 1956. Decades of improvements and four U.S. patents later, Meyco continues to offer an outstanding version of the original mesh safety pool cover.
This pool cover material, since it’s the lightest weight, is used on the worlds largest pool covers. Some pool covers get so big, Meyco will break it into smaller pieces that combine to make one safety pool cover. This material and the pool cover design has been tested time and time again from cars crashing on to it to tornados trying to rip it away. The original concept of this pool cover came from looking for an alternative to the dangerous, labor intensive way of closing pools. Working with a prominent pool builder in CT, Fred Meyer worked on several materials before coming up with an early ancestor to MeycoLite.

Safety
Meyco pool covers exceed all ASTM standards for safety as well as many local safety requirements. When properly secured to the pool decking, the cover's crisscrossed webbing hold taut across the pool in "trampoline style." Meyco pool covers can not blow off in a windstorm, and are difficult to remove without the safety installation rod. If that weren't enough, the straps are capable of withstanding of 4,500 lbs. of tension!
Maintenance
Mesh safety pool covers eliminate the need to pump off dangerous surface water since rain water drains through. Leaves and debris on the cover dry and blow off. With proper water treatment, there are no algae problems either. The only maintenance required for using mesh safety covers is to prevent the water level from falling lower than 18" from deck level during the winter.
Appearance
Tailored to fit any size or shape pool, the standard forest green fine mesh is handsome in appearance as well as maintenance free. Non-corrosive solid brass anchors disappear flush with the deck when the cover is removed. The need for unsightly ropes, pillows, pumps and water bags is eliminated.
Convenience
With more and more pool owners having less and less time on their hands these days, convenience is more important than ever. Safety pool covers are light in weight, super strong, and can be put on or taken off quickly (installation time for a standard 20'x40' pool cover is about 5 minutes!)
Safety vs. Standard Tarp Covers
Safety pool covers actually cost less per year of use than standard tarp covers! The larger initial investment for the safety cover is much more than compensated for by its longer mesh life and by eliminating the need for water bags, pumps or pillows.
Quality
Meyco pool covers are made of the finest materials available...the best polypropylene fabric, the strongest thread and the most durable hardware. Each pool cover is designed with deep channeled abrasion strips for cover wear protection.
