When winter hits, a quality water bag can make all the difference. Our 8′ Blue Double Chamber Water Bag is designed to anchor your pool cover, preventing it from shifting, sagging, or getting lifted by wind and snow. Whether you’re in snowy Muskoka or chilly Niagara, this essential accessory gives you peace of mind all season long.
Double-chamber construction for added stability and reduced rolling — helps keep the bag flat and secure over your cover.
Made of heavy-duty vinyl, robust against UV, cold temperatures, and general wear.
Leak-proof valves (twist, clear, or secure design depending on model) make filling and sealing easy and reliable.
Ideal length: 8 feet, perfect for laying edge-to-edge around rectangular or oval pools.
Designed for winter pool closing — spreads the load, prevents cover collapse under snow/ice.
Flexible filling instructions: fill to about ½ to ¾ full to allow expansion during freezing. DiscountPoolSupply+3DiscountPoolSupply+3Leslie's Pool Supplies+3
Lay out your winter cover and thread the water bag through the loops or place it along the perimeter.
Fill slowly with a hose, watching that both chambers fill evenly.
Seal the valves properly — soaking them in warm water can help close stubborn valves.
Leave a little headspace so freezing water can expand without rupturing the bag.
After winter, drain, dry, fold, and store the bag flat in a cool, dry spot.
Q: Is this suitable for above-ground pools as well?
A: Yes — it works with most cover types, provided the cover has loops or the bag can rest along the edge.
Q: What happens if the water freezes?
A: Because the bag isn’t filled completely, the water can expand safely without bursting the vinyl if filled to recommended levels.
Q: How long will it last?
A: With proper care and storage, these heavy-duty vinyl bags can last for many seasons.
Q: Can I reuse it every year?
A: Absolutely — just make sure to clean and dry it thoroughly before storing to prevent mildew or damage.
