Hi there, I'm hoping somebody could help me out. We had a pool installed in the fall of 2012 and haven't yet had a chance to use it. Unfortunately my faith in our pool installer has demished which is why I'm turning to you for help.
We had them install a safety cover and it doesn't seem to be adequate however, as a new pool owner, I may be wrong. We live in an area where we can receive significant snowfall at times. At our first snowfall, we may have received 2-3" of now. With this snowfall, our pool cover is about 3' below the deck level (pool not all the way full with water at this time due to local building codes). My concern is that with such a small amount of snow and the cover sinking at least 3', this doesn't seem to be overly safe. With two very small children, I need to know if this is in fact safe or if the cover requires a reinstall.
If anybody could offer advice or provide clarification, it would be most appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
