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.

How do you keep a solar blanket from blowing away?
You can use a solar cover reel to keep the solar blanket securely in place. Alternatively, you can invest in cover clips or straps that attach the blanket to the edges of the pool. Additionally, make sure to store the blanket properly when not in use to prevent it from blowing away.
What is the difference between a good and bad solar blanket?
A good solar blanket is durable, UV-resistant, and able to effectively retain and transfer heat from the sun to the pool water. A bad solar blanket may be low quality, prone to tearing or deteriorating quickly, and may not effectively heat or maintain the pool temperature.
Why do the bubbles in your solar blanket deflate?
The bubbles in a solar blanket may deflate due to a variety of reasons, such as changes in temperature, air trapped inside the bubbles escaping, or wear and tear over time. It is important to regularly check and maintain your solar blanket to ensure optimum performance and longevity.
You had your solar blanket on for 2 days and the water went very cloudy why?
Leaving the solar blanket on for extended periods can lead to poor circulation and lack of oxygen in the pool. This can cause the water to become stagnant and promote the growth of algae and bacteria, leading to cloudy water. It's important to regularly remove the solar blanket to allow for proper water circulation and maintain water quality.
What do i do if there is a hole i my solar heating blanket?
If there's a hole in your solar heating blanket, first clean the area around the hole to ensure good adhesion for repairs. Use a repair patch specifically designed for solar blankets, which can usually be found at pool supply stores or online. Apply the patch according to the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring it's securely attached. If the damage is extensive, consider replacing the blanket for optimal efficiency.
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!
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.
