Pool Cover with No Puddles to Pump

[Steveromo]

I've received so much help from the experts in this forum I thought I'd take a moment to share a solution that I developed with with the forum. During each winter, I grew tired of having to pump puddles off the cover after each rain. I've seen some postings about pool cover frames that allow rain and leaves to run off. I thought I'd give it a try, and it worked... right through a direct hit by hurricane sandy! I built a pvc frame to lay over my air pillows, and laid the cover over it and attached water-filled jugs to the cover eyelits to keep the cover taut around the perimiter of the pool. So far it has worked great. I will be glad to post photos, but I don't know how! I'll post them in a reply if anyone posts instructions. Thanks!

You can post a link here to a photo hosting site, like Flickr, Photobucket, etc if your photos are there, or you can email them to poolforum@gmail.com but reference this thread so that Ben knows which thread they belong to.

Faster to post your photos yourself if you can using one of the hosting sites Janet mentioned above. If you need Ben to do it, it may be awhile until he gets to it.
