How do solar pool covers work?

The pic associated with this answer has nothing to do with a Solar Cover or Solar Blanket. It looks as if these are solar panels for electricity. Solar blankets look like a stronger version of bubble wrap. Their primary purpose when they are laid on the water (bubble side down) is to keep whatever warmth the pool water has in it from escaping into the cooler air at night. They are usually a light blue or clear in color. Clear allows more sunlight into the pool to heat the water better.


Does solar energy work in Colorado?

How much heat gained with solar pool cover?

A solar pool cover can help increase the temperature of a pool by around 5-10 degrees Fahrenheit depending on factors like sunlight exposure and pool size. The amount of heat gained will vary but generally, solar pool covers are effective at harnessing solar energy to warm up the pool water.

Yes they do. Plus they are safer most are capable of generating more heat that a solar cover. The effect is that Solar Sun Rings with 70% to 80% coverage outperform bubble pack covers with 100% coverage. cheers mark tahiliani (jm)
