SAP vs Pro Mesh Safety Covers

What is the difference between a SAP mesh cover and a PRO mesh cover?

The GLI Pro mesh safety covers are the upgrade over the SAP mesh safety covers. The weave of the material it tighter on the Pro and it blocks 98% of sunlight vs 90% for the SAP. Less sunlight equals less chance of algae. The Pro offers a 15 year warranty and the SAP offers a 12 year warranty.

Below are the features of each cover.
