First post... :lol: Nice to meet you all!
I just had my 27 ft round above ground pool installed last friday and we finally got done with the heater install and all that yesterday. Anyways we got a solar cover and a reel. The reel has an aluminum pole made up of about 6 sections that get screwed together, that spans the width of the pool. From what the directions say it looks like I actually have to poke holes through the cover to attach it to the pole for reeling. The pole actually dips a lot, almost touching the water, probably has the very center about 3 inches lower then the part that mounts to the brackets on the pools rails; will this be a problem? I didn't mount the cover to the pole yet, as we just put the cover on by hand.
