Arctic Armor 12-Year Solid Winter Cover for 30' x 60' In-Ground Pools
Close the pool, open it clean.
The Arctic Armor 12-Year Solid Winter Cover for 30' x 60' in-ground pools (model WC866, SKU PST-WC866) keeps light off the water through the off-season and holds fallen leaves and twigs up on the cover, where they cannot break down in the pool. The finished cover measures 35' x 65', which builds in a 5' total overlap that leaves about 2 to 2-1/2 feet of material on each side once it is centered, and it is sized for water lowered up to 18" below the deck. It is green woven polyethylene with heat-sealed seams and a black underside, backed by a 12-year limited warranty with the first two years full.
Why PST Customers Pick This
Solid Woven Polyethylene
Green woven polyethylene with heat-sealed seams. Rainwater collects on top of the cover all winter, and the cover is made to carry it without harm.
Blocks Sunlight and Debris
With a black underside and heat-sealed seams, the cover shuts out light and keeps fallen leaves and twigs out of the water, so the pool is ready to use again when the weather warms up.
Water Tube Loops Every 4'
Loops sewn every 4' around the edge hold your water tubes in place along the deck. Water tubes are sold separately.
5' Total Overlap
The cover is cut 5' longer and 5' wider than the pool it is listed for, so a centered cover leaves about 2 to 2-1/2 feet on every side to secure.
Leave the Water On
Do not pump the cover off in the fall. The water that gathers on top holds the cover in place and protects it from wind damage.
Sized to Your Water Level
Built for water lowered up to 18" below the deck. If you usually drop the water further than that when you close, choose a larger cover size.
Not a Safety Cover
This winter cover protects a closed pool from the elements. It is not designed or intended as a safety cover. Stay off the cover at all times, keep everyone else off it, and never leave children unsupervised near the pool, covered or uncovered.
Specifications
Frequently Asked Questions
What size cover do I order?
Order by your pool size, not the cover size. This cover is listed for 30' x 60' in-ground pools and measures 35' x 65', so the 5' total overlap is already added. It is sized for water up to 18" below the deck; if you drop the water further than that at closing, go up a size. Never stretch a cover that comes up short to make it reach.
How do I hold the cover down?
With water tubes, sold separately, set in the loops sewn every 4' around the edge. Skip sharp blocks and other makeshift weights: sharp blocks cut and scuff the cover, and the warranty treats makeshift hold-downs as improper installation. If you also tie the cover to a fence, use a flexible bungee cord so it can shift as snow and ice build up, and keep the water tubes in place.
Which Arctic Armor in-ground cover should I choose?
The three solid lines install the same way and all have a black underside. The 10-Year is gray with the first two years full, the 12-Year is green with the first two years full, and the 15-Year is blue with the first three years full, each pro-rated through the year in its name. Rugged Mesh is a black mesh cover that lets rain and snowmelt drain through, with the first year full and pro-rating through year 8. A Leaf Net goes on top of your winter cover to catch falling leaves.
Can I put the cover on myself?
Yes, and one or two helpers make it faster. Tape over any exposed sharp edges first, and pad coping or other rough spots the cover will rub against. Spread the cover evenly so the overlap is the same on all four sides, because an off-center cover can malfunction and voids the warranty. Then set your water tubes in the loops.
How does the 12-year warranty work?
It is a 12-year limited warranty. The first two years are unconditional on fabric and workmanship; after that, material degradation is pro-rated as a credit toward a new winter cover. A purchase receipt is required for every claim, and the purchaser pays handling and shipping on the replacement. Improper installation voids the coverage. Damage from wind, snow and heavy rain is not covered.

Let customers speak for us
Great company to work with!
Came in great condition my kid loves it, fit perfect hes 6 and got a medium.
Order received. Thank you
This is a well built spa light with excellent cables and excellent customer service. Highly recommend
New flow switch worked perfect. Much cheaper than other sites. Arrived on time.
Good price works great!
Extremely fair company. Cares about their customers and are willing to do what it take to make you feel satisfied!
Dog chewed pool robot cord end. Ordered this fix it. Delivery was a little slow and I think some instructions should have been included as should have been a tiny allen wrench needed to tighten the wires into the plug. I got it done but think most homeowners would have a problem doing it. Other than these issues, the plug works fine and was much cheaper than buying a whole new cord.
Had a minor issue with pricing of a separate part in my order, but the sales team was responsive and reasonable, and worked with me to come to a mutually agreeable solution. In a world where character and reason has become the exception rather than the norm, they stand by their word and were committed to finding a fair solution.
I highly recommend them, and will look to them first in the future when searching for pool and spa products. Thanks, Sal and team!
I really like it
The part fit perfectly. Shipping was quick. Would definitely purchas from PST Pool Supplies again in the future.
Ordered this as I just had a leak and replaced it with a complete flow switch and valve . If the valve body cracks again, at least I am prepared. Thanks!
Awesome product and handling. It fit where my IC40 was easily.
We found the hard to find parts here, and they were delivered all the way to North Carolina way ahead of the initial delivery date. The pump runs Great and Everyone is enjoying the Pool over the Labor Day Holiday. Thank you again PST Pool Supply for your Excellent service..
Came here looking for a replacement flow switch and housing. My last one that I purchased on Amazon (cheap Chinese ****) lasted only 9mo before leaking severely in 2 places. I noticed a quality difference in the replacement I received from PST. I expect this one to far exceed the prior one. It installed quickly and works perfectly. Best of all, the leaked are gone.
