I will soon have an 18' AG round pool installed. It will have a beaded liner. The 1st question I have is , Should I build deck even with top rail leaving a space between pool and deck to allow for winter cover to be installed? 2nd ? How do you generally secure winter cover? Not sure what my cover will be, it comes with the pool.
Thanks !

That's how mine is built even though I no longer use a winter cover. I took some pictures the other day and hope to have them added to my thread soon. Have a look and if the new pics aren't there yet, check back in a few days. http://www.poolforum.com/pf2/showthread.php?14507-Watermom-s-New-Pool-Adventure

Some are held down with water bags hanging from the sides of the cover. Others have a ratcheting mechanism that tightens a cable with is threaded through the grommets along the edge of the cover.
Welcome to the Pool Forum, by the way!
