Pool Covers With Pumps Can Make Pool Prep Easier

One way to open pools for use is by using pool covers with pumps. The pump works by vacuuming standing water on top of the pool cover, making the cover lighter and easier to remove. This can also prevent you from spilling dirty water into the pool.


Removing the pool cover is just the first step in preparing your pool for spring and summer. Learn more about what you need to get the pool ready this year by reading our guide on that subject, How to Open Your Pool.


Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: Do Pool Cover Pumps Work?

A: Pool cover pumps are very useful for removing water from a pool cover. These pumps use a motor to help vacuum water with minimal human labor. Most pumps need 3/4-inch tubes or garden hoses both to collect water and to direct it to a different area. Read our Garden Hose Buying Guide to discover the best type of hose for transferring water.


Q: Is a Pool Cover Pump Necessary?

A: Removing water from the pool cover is necessary so that when you lift the cover, the dirty water doesn’t fall into the pool. While a pool cover pump isn’t the only way to remove water from a cover, it’s the fastest and most efficient method, compared with many other tools, such as buckets or squeegees.


Q: How Do You Cover a Pool Pump?

A: Need pool pump cover ideas? Here’s one. Place the pump inside an artificial rock. At Lowe’s, we carry many artificial rocks and boulders that you can use to hide smaller pool equipment.


However, pool cover pumps likely don’t need such protection, as you’ll use them for only a few hours each year. As with other pool equipment, you can place a pump inside an enclosure to shelter it or suppress loud noises while it’s running.
