I buy the more expense solar covers ( 16 ml ) you pay a little more but you get a 3 year full replacement warranty and 7 year pro rated. The max I've gotten is 4 years but with the warranty I can replace the cover for about $50. My pool holds 30,000 gallons of water and we keep the heater on 86F. The cover works wonders to hold heat in, it only drops about 2 degrees each night. After the first spring heat up it sure does save on the gas bill.
A solar cover reel is a device used to easily roll out and retract a solar pool cover. It typically consists of a crank or motorized system that allows the user to extend or retract the cover with minimal effort. The reel helps keep the cover organized and prevents it from becoming tangled or damaged.
It's not possible to add optimizer plus to a pool with the solar cover on. You will need to remove the solar cover from part or all of the pool in order to put optimizer or other pool treatment products into your swimming pool water.
Useless
Yes, you can use a liquid solar cover and a traditional solar pool cover simultaneously. The liquid solar cover creates a thin film on the water's surface to reduce evaporation and retain heat, while the physical solar cover traps heat and reduces heat loss at night. Using both together can enhance the overall efficiency of heat retention in your pool. However, ensure that the liquid cover is compatible with the pool chemicals you are using.

yes
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.

It is depends on the type, brand and size. It cost about $219 for the 10m x 6m solar swimming pool blanket cover and $512 for the solar pool cover 500 micron series.
A pool with a solar cover will absorb the heat faster during the day and when left on the pool over night it will prevent the loss of heat.
Yes. The filter will pull water into the skimmer from under the cover and send it back into the pool through the return line. In fact, when using a solar cover the pool will warm slightly faster if the water is circulating (the solar cover is continuously heating all of the water rather than a just a small layer of already warm water right under the cover). Heat flows faster the greater the temperature difference. Hope this helps...
