16x36 Inground Vinyl Liner pool install has completed, and I have purchased a winter safety cover (HPI Bloc Mesh 99%). We have 3 sides grass, and the 16ft entry area is interlocking pavers with compacted sub-base.
I do realize the way my pool is setup with 75% grass that it could never be a true 'safety' cover, but I do want it to hold if my toddler accidentally walks onto it. I plan to be diligent during winter to remove as much snow as possible.
So, I was hoping for some install guidance as I could not come to terms with paying $6,000 to have it put in by PB.
I am planning to rent a SDS Max Rotary Drill from Home Depot, but looking for recommendations on a good masonry bit, core drill bit, etc.? I also don't have a $500 tool allowance

- 18" Lawn lawn anchors - Pool Cover Lawn Stakes
- I have read to hammer them into the grass at an angle away from the pool for an eventual pullback towards the pool if there is any weight on the cover
