Description
16×32 GLI Max Shade Safety Cover with 25 Year Warranty
The 16×32 GLI Max Shade Safety Cover is a revolutionary new cover that has all the benefits of a mesh safety cover, with the sunlight and UV blockage of a solid vinyl cover. The GLI Max Shade Mesh Safety Cover comes standard with stronger-than commercial grade springs on all size covers, which provides tighter, stronger security for your pool. This mesh safety cover material gives you almost 100% solid coverage benefits without the added weight of a solid vinyl cover.

A GLI Safety Cover is a safe solution for any homeowner. Not only will your backyard look great, but installation is easy and the “Peace of Mind” that you will carry throughout the winter months is well worth the investment.

Installation Instructions
Deck Anchors
Universal brass anchors or aluminum lawn stakes for securing in-ground swimming pool safety covers. Made from high-quality brass metal (aluminum for stakes) – longer durability in harsh cold weather. Concrete deck anchors are included in the pool cover kit.
Concrete Deck Anchors
The brass concrete anchor is the most common type of safety cover anchor used. The standard cover anchor is threaded and 1/16″ wider at the top. When tapped into the hole, it press-fits into place, holding the anchor body stationary, as you turn the threaded insert up or down.
Using a rotary hammer drill with a 3/4″ masonry bit, place a piece of sturdy tape around the bit at 2-1/4″, so you know when to stop drilling. Hold the drill perpendicular to the deck when drilling, to create a vertical hole. After drilling the hole, remove the dust, then tamp the anchor into the hole, using a tamping tool so you don’t damage the keyhole or bend the rim of the anchor.
Wood Deck Anchors
The wood deck anchor has a wide flange on the top of the anchor, to protect the deck and hold the cover securely with more lateral strength.
First, drill a counter-sink hole, 3/16″ deep, using a Forstner bit of the right diameter, so the anchor flange will sit flush into the wood, and not be a toe-stubbing hazard. Next, using a 3/4″ wood drill bit, drill a hole in the center, all the way through the wood. Drop the wood anchor into the hole, and then screw in the brass flange screws, using a #2 Phillips screw head.
Lawn Stakes
This style of cover stake is designed to be installed in the yard around the pool where no concrete or wood decking has been used.
The lawn stakes should be installed sloped away from the pool (as opposed to straight up and down like other cover anchor types), which allows the lawn stake to be straight up and down once the cover is under tension. It is common to need to reinstall these stakes into the ground yearly as they will be loose after a snow load on the cover.
Winterizing Kits
Our Pool Winterizing Kits include all the chemicals and/or chlorine you will need to close your swimming pool this fall! The winterizing kits are made to properly work for a maximum of about 4 months.
Before starting to winterize your swimming pool make sure to have the proper tools on hand. You will need the swimming pool cover, the water tubes (when applicable), the plugs the skimmers (Gizmos), skimmer winter covers and plugs for return jets and your winterizing chemicals. You will also need an air compressor or a powerful shop vac. You need these items for proper winterization.
