Of course a solid safety cover is the $3,000 solution, but like jordangregory, I too have both safety mesh and tarp. Seems this combination would work just like a solid safety cover. Anyone?
if you put a tarp on top of the safety cover without pumping the water off you will destroy the safety cover not to mention void any warranty. I've seen customers put a tarp under the safety cover but this actually makes opening the pool very difficult as it's difficult to deal with the tarp once the safety cover is removed as there is no longer anything holding the cover in place.
