if the pool is 12 feet does the cover need to be a little bigger?

No. It'll have an extra few inches on all sides so you can completely cover the pool and tighten the drawstring.Cheers!

No, but the cover does have a ring around the top that has a draw string to tighten cover around the top of the pool. I have and use this cover and it works great
1035568
No...it fits over the sides and still has some slack after you tight the draw string.

Just buy the cover that says it fits this size of pool. Mine fits just right. No need to buy any larger.

The cover fits just fine, but only has a drawstring to tighten it. As such, if you live in a windy area, it does not stay down very well.

Yes, it fits pools up to 20' in width, it says it somewhere in the link on amazon...

It will work, just not as well. The biggest robber of heat from your pool is actually the wind, not the outside temperature. So 4 feet of exposed area is not going to completely negate having the cover, but also not as good as it could be. Hope that helps.

I believe it is bigger. I have a 15'x30' oval pool and had to cut quite a bit. This type cover isn't the tie down though. This is a cover that floats on top of the water and traps heat. Your describing more of a winter cover.

I have a 18 foot diameter pool and the 18 covers it perfectly. you could cut the 18 down.

Your solar cover should be fine. We have a 12 mil for a 16x28 pool. My 8 year old can roll it up and 12 yr old helps me lift it completely off when needed. If to a second post, my 8 yr old can do this too. Only recommendation is to buy a 'clip' or two for each end as the liner likes to unroll both at the same time. The aluminum rod is light weight but seems very strong.

If you mean 12" of just the top of your spa showing, then no, it would not work. You need at least one of the sides completely exposed because the cover caddy stores to the side of the spa, and 36" of clearance because what it does is pulls the cover back and then folds it down to the side.

No this would only cover part of your pool. It would be better to buy an oval cover.

I like the cover to be large, the 15 ft cover should tuck under the rim of the pool.....If there is a lot left over I hang it over the sides and hold it down with large foam covered twist ties.it really keeps the pool clean and warm.

You would need to buy compatible connectors, which we had to do as well. The hoses are smaller on the 12 x 30. But worth the investment your pool will be pristine.

I don't believe so. We actually got the gazebo to go around our little boy's 12-foot pool X 30 inch pool. It only extends about 4-inches around the 12-foot pool and is a perfect fit to the 13-foot frame.

WE had the same concern, luckily it just fit in our space. The actual pool skin(when filled) is 12' wide, however the support bars on each side extend 1' 4" on each side, so you have to have a total of 14' 8" width and the length is is fine.

I bought the 12mil and it is a great pool cover - far better than any of the others I had previously purchased locally.

I purchased the 18' cover for my 18' pool. It comes about 18.5-19 feet diameter. You can cut it down to fit exactly, I left my long and it just bends a little around the edges. It has withstood wind storms with gusts up to 50 mph without blowing off. Seems to be a great product. I purchased mine the beginning of July. I don't think I'd go with the 15'...too much of a gap.

My pool is approximately 12 1/2 feet and the blanket fits it well, so I dont think you should have a problem.

Yes! That's the size we have. We also bought a thermal pool cover. Our pool has Never been this clean. The only adjustment we had to make with the skimmer is secure it to the metal pole with a zip tie.

I bought a 12' pool cover a few years ago and was a sea blue color. A light blue color.
