How snug should a solar cover fit to the pool?
I have an irregular shaped (coral or amoeba) pool and a cover on a reel which works well, but occasionally we have problems with very high winds that end up blowing one end of the cover over the reel and then the entire reel falls into the pool. I'm wondering if trimming the cover more might help to preven this or not.
It seems that the cover stretched over time and now it folds up on the sides in some places (not over the concrete coping). Should the cover be smaller than the pool dimensions, the exact dimensions, or slightly larger?
