Does the pillow have to be centered. Or is it still effective if it shifts to one side. Thank you

We would recommend doing your best to center these so that the amount of water or debris on the cover is easier to remove from around the outside of the pool surface.

I have a 16 x 25 oval pool and a wondering how to place the pillow. Length or width wise? Also does it matter if the pillow shifts towards one side?

Hi, Christine. The pillow will have to be installed to match the width and length of the pool.

We have a 24 foot above ground pool...is there a benefit to having more than one air pillow? Exp: hooking 3-4 pillows together?

Hello, Having more pillows will keep more stuff off the covers. Also if one pops, you will have the others there to carry the weight.

A few of the reviewers complained that this pillow deflated quickly, is there a special procedure to keep them inflated all winter? If not, is this a manufacturing defect that has been corrected?

Hi, Tim. This issue has been resolved. We're now using a different manufacturer.

I have a 18 x 33 oval pool. I need to order air pillows to supplement the pool cover that was recently purchased. How many pillows will I need to order and which sizes are optimal?

Hello Myrtle- The fastest way to inflate this air pillow would be to use a Shop vac with the air flow reversed.

I have an above ground pool and I've been told that I need to use an air pillow underneath my winter pool cover. What does the air pillow do?

An air pillow helps to attract freezing water as it expands and relieves the pool walls from the stress of water expansion.Air pillows also help reduce excess water, leaves, debris and snow on your winter cover.

Pros: Perfect size for oval pool
Cons: Will not hold air
I recently purchased a 4 x 15 ft pool pillow from INYO POOLS prior to winterizing my pool. At first I loved the pillow. Perfect fit for my 12 x 24 ft oval pool. I filled it with air, tied it off and covered it snuggly with the pool cover I bought last year from INYO POOLS. It was awesome. But after less than 2 weeks the pillow lost nearly all the air. I refilled it with air and recovered. Now 2 weeks later it has lost all air again. I requested a new/replacement pillow from INYO POOLS and they promptly sent a new pillow to me at no cost (that was terrific). Sad to say, I had the exact same problem with the second pillow. The second pillow did hold air a few days longer but it went flat as well. I refilled it two more times before I gave up. When I uncovered my pool this spring both pillows were resting on the bottom of the pool. I like INYO POOLS a lot, and I will order form them again. But I will not be buying any more pool pillows. I will go back to using those extra large beach balls that are sold at the local Food Lion store. They hold air nicely all winter long.

This product seemed like it would be great but by time we got the cover on and ready the pillow had deflated. I think it might of been user error. I would try this product again.

Had one, bought another. Keeps the water off cover so there isn’t the big hassle of it sinking
