Solid Loop-Loc. With or without center mesh

[ChristopherS64]

I am looking to purchase a solid Loop-Loc cover. Cannot decide whether to get the one with the center mesh panel or totaly solid. Either way it seems like you would have to drain water either from top of cover or from pool.

I have the same questions. We are looking for recommendations for a good winter cover. We are planning on a loop loc, but are unsure which way to go. Please help.

I too have the same question. I'm going loop-lockbut not sure of center mesh or solid type. Is it true that either way have to drain water from the top?? Thanks for any insight.

We installed a mesh loop loc last year. Since we get so much snow here, we opted against the solid one. I know they show an elephant standing on it but we didn't want the worry. Plus we wanted it clean and dry in the spring, which it was. But if we'd have gotten the solid one it would have been the one with the center mesh panel.

Thanks for the info. I think we are going with the mesh as well.

I have a mesh loop-lock. Gave up on it a few seasons ago. Here in Northeast PA the continuous snow, melt, freeze, snow etc, would weight the thing down so in the late Winter it would be fully frozen in the ice block that is the upper levels of my IG pool. BAH !! My particular situation doesn't require a cover so now I leave the pool uncovered. Not knocking Loop-lock. They are good. Don't have elephants here but I do have other big critters, but the fence keeps them away from the pool.
