They are the same thing basically.
Pool Cover, Solar Cover, solar Blanket are all used interchangeably. It's basically some material, usually a plastic bubble mesh or vinyl covering that goes over the pool. The exception to this is Winter Cover which generally is heavier and designed to protect your pool during long winter months.

Why do the bubbles in your solar blanket deflate?
Chlorine causes the entire blanket to degredate. It won't last as long as the manufacturers claim and the higher the chlorine level, the harder it is on your cover.

Should you leave the vinyl pool cover on when using a solar blanket or does the pool cover above the solar blanket hinder the solar blanket's performance?
Remove the vinyl cover when using a solar blanket to warm the water. If the vinyl cover is used at the same time as the solar blanket, the vinyl cover absorbs most of the heat and then transfers the heat into the air or water between the vinyl cover and the solar blanket. Then the heat transfers to the solar blanket and then, finally, into the water. When this happens, a lot of heat remains in the vinyl cover and air/water between the two covers instead of getting into the water. It is preferable to have the heat absorbed by the solar cover and then transfer directly into the water. Hope this helps... Too much redundancy in pool covers.

Does a solar blanket work?
Absolutely yes! When we use our pool solar blanket we can get the temp up to around 90 with no problem. We live in Maryland. The key is to keep the cover on as much as possible and todefinitely leave it on a night when most heat is lost. The cover acts as a means to allow solar energy in and to keep it there. I would highly recommend a cover. Buy a cover that is too big because they are easy to cut to size with scissors. Good luck!

If there's a solar blanket on the pool water surface during a heavy rain will the solar blanket sink under the surface or will it keep floating?
It will keep floating. Some of the water will remain on the top of the cover, but most will run off the side and enter the pool.
Can you use liquid solar fish and a solar blanket at the same time to enhance pool water warmth?
A blanket can help increase the temperature up to 10 degrees, a liquid blanket less than that. Used together you will still only see a maximum of 10 degrees but the liquid cover will help minimize heat loss while the cover is off and people are swimming. Unless there is some reason you can't use a standard cover like high swimmer loads or indoor pools where you want to minimize off gassing all the time then you're generally better off with just using the standard blanket can getting a solar heater if you need more heat.

A duvet is only a coverlet that your existing comforter or blanket will fit inside of. Almost like a pillowcase, but for your blanket. You can take it off and just wash the cover, instead of the whole blanket. Where as a beadspread is a regular blanket that is usually decorative and covers the bed.
