There are no trees with leaves around - so I don't have a lot of debris in the pool. Is it necessary to put a cover on the pool? What is the reason for a cover, aside from keeping debris out? Thanks to anyone who may answer.

AG pools are sometimes damaged by covers. Unless you use a safety cover, covered pools are more dangerous than uncovered pools.
