Winter Debris Cover to fit pool with FIXED slatted roller....? Help.

[Lamby2244]

Hello - any ideas here. I have a massive leaf drop issue here and even with the slatted cover the debris makes its way into the pool down the sides as the wind blows it about.

Of course the simple option is a winter debris cover - except I have a huge fixed roller by DEL that is at one end of the pool. Anyone solved this issue?

Thanks for the help....

the slatted cover

*shameless request for pics. Those are COOL.

I'd go with an oversized tarp. You'd have to weigh down the perimeter with aquablocks or water bags or the wind would take it away, but it would easily cover the pool and roller.

Shameless sharing of some pics - pretty sure the wife isn't going to go for tarp held down by bags or aqua blocks . Great thinking tho!

I wonder if u could get some kind of rubber strip that could be laid down over the gaps - that way it could just be rolled up when not in use.
Something like this..

Now that is an out of the box thought....... If I ran this around the edges I could then use the leaf blower to get stuff out from on the slats.... Hmmm needs a little thinking through but this is a smart thought. I was thinking of a bespoke mesh but haven't seen any.
