LOOP-LOC Ultra-Loc II 18' x 36' Rectangle w/ Flush Side Step Solid Pool Safety Cover, Green
Solid shade, mesh panels do the draining.
The LOOP-LOC Ultra-Loc II 18' x 36' Rectangle w/ Flush Side Step solid pool safety cover, Green (SKU PST-LLS183648SSR) is a solid cover that keeps dirt and leaves on top of the cover instead of in the water. Built-in mesh drain panels let rain and melting snow pass through while straining out debris, and the material is much lighter than typical solid covers, so it is easier to put on and take off. LOOP-LOC covers are UL tested and exceed ASTM safety cover standards. Backed by a 15-year pro-rated warranty.
Solid Shade
Solid Keeps Debris Out
Ultra-Loc II is a solid cover. The solid deck keeps dirt, pollen, and seed pods on top of the cover instead of in your water, while rain and snowmelt leave through the mesh drain panels.
Drain Panels
Mesh Panels Do the Draining For You
Every solid cover has to move rain and snowmelt somewhere. Ultra-Loc II handles it with built-in mesh drainage panels that pass water into the pool while straining out dirt and debris. The material also bounces back rather than stretching, so water finds the drain panels instead of settling into a pocket in the middle of the cover. That means no cover pump running on an extension cord through a January freeze, and no ice bowl sitting on your fabric.
Tool Required
Lighter Than Typical Solid Covers
The Ultra-Loc material is much lighter than typical solid covers, so putting it on and taking it off is easier. Each spring goes on and comes off its anchor with the LOOP-LOC installation tool. Stainless steel springs hold every strap under even tension, and brass anchors recess flush with the deck when the cover comes off for swim season.
Who It's For
Green-Water Spring Openers
If your pool opens as a swamp every April, a solid cover that keeps debris on top instead of in the water is worth a look.
Families With Kids & Pets
Anchored and tensioned to spec, Ultra-Loc II is a tensioned barrier over the water that exceeds ASTM F1346 requirements.
Heavy Debris Yards
Under oaks and pines, a solid deck keeps every leaf and seed pod out of the pool instead of straining it through a mesh weave.
Solid Without the Weight
For owners who want solid-cover water quality but have been put off by how heavy traditional solid vinyl covers are to handle.
Why PST Customers Pick This
Built-In Mesh Drain Panels
Rain and snowmelt pass through the drain panels while dirt and debris stay on top, so no cover pump has to run all winter.
Lighter Than Typical Solid Covers
Ultra-Loc fabric is much lighter than typical solid cover material, which makes install and removal easier.
Brass Anchors, Flush Fit
Brass anchors disappear flush with the deck when the cover is off, and stainless steel springs hold the cover taut when it is on.
UL Tested, Exceeds ASTM
LOOP-LOC covers have been through outside testing at Underwriters Laboratories and exceed ASTM standards for manual safety covers.
Water Level Notice
Solid Ultra-Loc covers require the pool water level to sit 12 to 16 inches below the top of the pool, because that water supports the cover under snow and ice load. LOOP-LOC voids the warranty if the level is not maintained. The cover also only meets ASTM F1346 when every strap is anchored into sound decking and fully tensioned, so never leave it partially attached.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Ultra-Loc II different from LOOP-LOC Super Dense Mesh?
Ultra-Loc II is solid: dirt and debris stay on top, and surface water drains through built-in mesh panels. Super Dense Mesh drains through the entire cover and blocks virtually all sunlight, which is lower maintenance but lets fine debris pass into the water. Choose Ultra-Loc II for cleaner spring water, Super Dense Mesh for the least winter attention.
Do I need a cover pump with this cover?
No. This Ultra-Loc II is built with mesh drain panels, so rain and snowmelt pass through them into the pool instead of pooling on the solid fabric. A cover pump is only required on all-solid LOOP-LOC covers ordered without drain panels.
What water level does a solid cover need?
Keep the pool filled to 12 to 16 inches below the top of the pool through the winter. The water column is what supports the cover under snow and ice, and LOOP-LOC voids the warranty if the level is not maintained. Check it after a long dry stretch or a big thaw.
How do I pick the right size?
Order by your pool's water surface, not the finished cover dimensions. This listing fits a 18' x 36' pool, and LOOP-LOC sews the cover oversized so it overlaps the deck on all sides and anchors under tension. Measure at the waterline, match the listed size, and match the step or offset configuration in the title if your pool has one.
Can I install this myself?
Professional installation is the safer call: LOOP-LOC's pro-rated warranty applies when the cover is installed by a qualified swimming pool professional. The install itself means laying the cover out, drilling the anchor holes, attaching the stainless springs to the straps, and tensioning each strap with the LOOP-LOC installation tool.
What does the LOOP-LOC warranty cover?
Every LOOP-LOC mesh and solid safety cover carries a 15-year pro-rated manufacturer warranty against defects in material and workmanship under normal use, when installed by a qualified pool professional. Keeping the pool water at the correct level is a condition of coverage.
