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.

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

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, You can either use a 4'x8' or a 4'x15' air pillow for that size pool.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Air pillow designed to go beneath an above ground pool winter cover to protect pool walls during freezing temperatures. They can help Decreases the build-up of rain, snow, and leaves. It sounds like there is a lot of water collecting on top of the cover, it may be best to use a 500 GPH Submersible Electric Cover Pump - NW2152 to remove the water.
