SKIMMER COVERS - THE ESSENTIAL UPGRADE

(Product Focus)

Why is HIDE is the best solution for your pool?

Hidden in plain sight, the 12" HIDE Skimmer Cover replaces the standard plastic lid with a flush, inlay-ready 316L marine-grade stainless steel detail for new or existing pools. While it delivers a more resolved finish for high-end projects, its value is just as strong in smaller poolscapes, where space is tighter, and every visible line has greater impact. There's a HIDE Cover for most external services - learn more.

FAQs 

How long is the warranty?

  • Backed by a 10-year structural warranty for added confidence.

Why should I choose a HIDE Skimmer Cover at the pool planning stage?

  • Although a HIDE Skimmer Cover can be retrofitted, it is much easier to plan for it during the pool build, before the pool deck is laid. This allows the required recess to be formed in the concrete, ensuring the Edge Protector sits at the correct depth within the pool structure for a cleaner, more precise installation. 

Can it be installed in existing pools?

  • Yes. HIDE is designed for new or existing pools. Additional depth is required. Watch this video to understand bedding in the Edge Protector for a flush finish.
