Does this cover need to be hooked to side of pool?Or will it just float on top of water?

It floats on top of the water, you may need to trim the edges to make it fit .

I actually love this. It sits right on top of the water and doesn't get blown off. It sits just down inside of the perimeter of the pool and touches the edges. It doesn't sink and warms the water from the sun. We just kind of roll it on and roll it off. Great purchase!

The solar cover we have just rests on the water. It does a good job of helping to warm the water.

the cover floats on top of the water, I trimmed mine to fit my pool. It works very well.

I have it for a larger pool but it does not attach to the sides. The only thing is if it is not filled with water it can be a bit unstable.

This is actually designed to drape on the inside of the pool. Sits on top of the water. Because of wind, we attached weights to 4 sides to hold it in place. So No, it does not stick to any surfaces. I would have loved to have one that had elastic around the edges or a drawstring.

You will have to secure it to the deck somehow. If you think on sliding into the pool you will not have enough length. If the slide if plastic it will be pushed out of water. I hope it helps.

I'm sure you could fasten something to the edges of the pool and the cover (similar to how the cover would attach to the cover reel). I don't think there is much of a need for that however. A little bit of water always seems to come on top of the cover to weigh it down on top of the "suction" the cover and water create together. It's a great cover for the price, even compared to more expensive covers. Good luck

You are correct! This comes in three pieces that snap together around the center piece. Simple to put together and pretty simple to install. I threw mine in the pool upside down and then used my dip net to flip it over the old cover. Once you have it centered over the old cover your job is done in about 5 minutes.

Its meant to stick on the side. It even tells you when the water is too low. That said, don't bury it

It doesn't fit over the edges, it is just a circle cut to lay just inside the rim so that it rests on the pool water itself and floats. If you're hoping to use it as a pool cover too in order to prevent debris, then carefully consider the amount of debris and type. My pool is under a covered patio and I still prefer the separate pool cover that goes all the way around the rim and is secured by a draw string.

Yes, we used it for a 10-foot pool. It hangs down over the sides and lays on the surface of the water. You might be able to pull it out and attach it to the ground to keep it off the water, but we just put it on top and it worked fine.

We just let ours lye on top of the water and it works just fine... We never tuck it in anywhere, ours if a 17 round and we just fold any excess under or over around the edges and let if kinda float... I have pulled it over the area where the retun water goes back in especially if the water is low so that the current does not put it across the pool, but that is only an issue if the water gets low... Hope that answers your question....

These are not "mounted". There is a magnetic base that is attached to the side of the pool. The light "Attaches" to that magnetic base. If a base falls off; the light floats to the top of the pool. The light itself sits inside the pool. There is a wire going from the light and that will hang over the side of the pool.

Top only, bottom has rubber bumpers and leans against the wall of the pool. You will need the Anchors and Escutcheon for the top part. Also keep in mind that the Anchors need to be grounded by an Electrician.

It floats on top. I've been using it for several weeks and it stays afloat and has been working out great.

It just floats on top of the water, we keep it on to help keep the pool clean

Darissa it just lays on top, no hooks. It does what it is supposed to do, keeps things from floating in your pool while not in use, also helps warm your pool. I use this cover and recommend it. Great summer cover. Hope my answers help.

It just lays on top of your pool. I have never had an issue with the cover blowing off. I also place my pool floats on top of the cover.

I don't know of a cover that would fit and prevent water from pooling on it. I bail mine if it gets water in it or turn mine over when I leave it for an extended period of time. It is pretty easy to flip over and back as it it stable and not that heavy but I'm 6ft and 200 pounds. I do that on a dock or on land and it works unless you have a motor on it and then you need to remove the motor 1st.
