Hi, I have a 16' round above ground pool, if I went with the 15' would that be good ? or the 18' with 2' overlap, thank you

I have a 16 also. Bought the 15 . It works fine for me. Just a tiny bit short that doesn't make a difference. Still keeps our pool warm!

With my 15' round, the cover is well over the sides, a 1.5 to 2 foot drop. But that extra footage is what keeps the cover from whipping up if there's a strong breeze. I'd go with the bigger cover. It's not heavy, and you could always cut it down a bit if needed. It's basically just a big piece of bubble wrap.

Definitely the 15'. We have a 22' pool and bought the 21' cover. It works perfectly since there are just a few inches are the perimeter that allow it to float freely. Any bigger and you'd have to cut it.

I think the smaller one would be better. You want as much of the cover to touch the water as possible. The cover floats right on the water. With the bigger one, you may end up with creases and bumps that will decrease the effectiveness. My cover wasn't perfectly round and needed to be trimmed.

Either one would work I suppose. I would personally go with the 18". We also have 2' overlap with that cover for our pool and we notice it keeps more of the bugs/dirt ect. out as it leaves no room for things to get in. Helps with preventing rain water from getting in and the water getting more cold.Just a thought!

Yes, it should. We use it on our 18 ft pool. It doesn't overlap much, but it does a great job of heating the pool and keeping out crud. We are happy with it!

I use mine for a 24 ft round above ground pool. 14000 gallons. I think it would do just as good on a 33 ft round pool. 20 something gallons. If you are considering using this on an inground pool, I would definately consult a pool specialist. If your inground pool was just a plain Jane type of pool , sure this would be fine, but on todays inticate below ground pipeing, itvmight nto be able to hqndle it or you would have to improvise on pipeing connections. Talk to your local pool outlet stores and ask them also.

my pool is 18' in diameter. But, all you have to do is pull 1 end of the cover & fold it over, walk around the pool & pull up another corner, and fold it until it is in a manageable bundle that you can remove (to hose off now & then) or to pull is half out of the pool so you can swim. Not hard, not heavy or complicated. Have you ever BEEN in an above ground pool? If so, you'd know how easy it was.

Actually I never used the NE124 it wasn'right for my pool. I think the distance would depend on whether you have a raised edge or a flat surface. I would guess that it should be about 15 to 18 inches. Hope that helps.Ray

It's OK in my 16-foot pool but certainly at it's limit. I would say it is fine for 14'-0" or smaller pools but I would get something a bit heavier for anything bigger.

Our pool is a 15' round and the reel works good. I do believe it would work just as good on an oval as it does on a round one. However you will need some velcrostrips to make it work . They would need to be wrapped around the cover along the length of the shaft after it is rolled up onto the reel. We use 4 of them on our round one and it makes it so much easier to handle. My wife is 5" tall and she doesn't have any handling the 15 ft long reel by herself. A 32 ft cover would definitely make a full reel but I'm sure it would work. Good Luck

Dear Rose, the 18' is a little big on the 16' pool but works great, by far the best cover I've bought, and I've bought several.

My pool is 14 x 25 and it works great. I would recommend the larger 4 inch cross tube.

I think it would work we have 15 ft and have to tuck it in on the sides because there's extra for our 15ft pool

You'll need a 16' cover for a 16' pool. I'm pretty sure the 18' will be too big. This cover will only work for a round, metal frame pool. I'm very satisfied with this cover. The clips attach to the steel legs and it also has a draw string. It also holds up to the wind real well. You should get about 2 years use out of it.

The cover is round. It sounds like your pool is rectangular. My 15 foot round pool was a perfect fit for the 15 ft round cover.

I have an 18 foot which works well for me. But don't cut down the 15' to 14 feet. Just fold the extra foot upward laying against the side which will give you more padding at the corner curve relieving stress on the linner when people step close to the upright walls. Hope this helps

I have a 18 x 33 above ground pool and it cleans it very well. I should have bought one years ago. Love it.

I have an above ground 24' round. My property slants to an 18" drop so the pool didn't need to be fenced all around. I used 5 sections of the fence for the area that wasn't 48" high from the ground. It wasn't hard to put up but you needed 2 people who are familiar with tools.

I don't know for sure. You need to measure the top of your pool. This is just a little bigger than 15'

I'm sure you can use a 15' pool cover for a 12' pool, but it wouldn't fit right and would be too loose. The middle material sags into the water with my 15' pool so it would probably be worse with a 12 footer.
