The swimming pool should be able to "breathe" -- letting the fumes from the addition of chemicals to "gas off" to open air. This should be done at least once a week or when you add chemicals to the pool. The cover should be removed for most of the that day. And note, you should NEVER try to swim under the cover while it is covering the pool.

It depends on several factors. During the swimming season, I keep my cover on until the pool starts getting hotter than I like (over 90). I believe the instructions for the covers say to take them off if the water is hotter than 90. Once it cools off enough, I'll put it back on. It's frequently on for weeks at a time, coming off only for an hour or two of swimming and then back on. Another reason to take it off is to allow the sun to kill algae. If you find you're getting a lot of it, leave the cover off for a day or two.

At least 8 hours. The best time to shock the pool is at night so the sun doesn't burn off the shock. I normally put the cover on the next morning.

Should you leave solar blanket on pool on sunny day?

Generally yes, as long as the solar blanket does not interfere with the hose to the automatic cleaner. This will depend upon the exact type of cleaner you might have. In most cases, the hose will simply move smoothly along the underside of the solar blanket. I would suggest that you try it but keep a close eye on things until you are sure the blanket is not obstructing the movement of the cleaner. ... I use my barracuda under the solar cover all the time. The steps in the pool usually cause more of a problem than the cover. However, once the pool is clean, the solar cover usually helps to keep it clean.


Do you need to remove the solar blanket periodically during the summer Can it stay on for many days?

The "bubble" type cover should be removed before you add chemicals and should be left off at least for a few hours afterward to gas off fumes from the chemicals. Ken


Is the solar year of Venus equal to or longer than the solar year of Mars?

The solar year of Venus should be shorter than the solar year of Mars because Venus is closer to the sun, so its rotation around the sun should take less time than a full rotation of the Sun for Mars. Also a solar year for Venus is 224.7 Earth days and a solar year for Mars is about 687 Earth days.


Can you put a solar cover on bubbles down?

Down, if you hope to heat your pool with it the bubbles (in theory) will heat up from the flat side. As there is more surface area from the bubbled side more heat (energy) will transfer to the water. I've never read any studies myself but I've read differing opinions from people in other posts. Some state the the solar cover actually blocks the sun and less heat is transfered on sunny days and that it is more beneficial to use take the cover off. Personally I find that if you leave the cover on when not using the pool, except when it's raining, the temperature stays the highest. Ensuring the cover is clean and there is no standing water on top of the cover really helps.

Is the best color of solar cover black blue silver or clear?

I was told by a pool supply store in Cleveland, Ohio, that they have heard of more instances of the black covers falling apart than the others. The guy in the store suggested it is because the black absorbs more of the sun's heat, causing the more rapid breakdown in the material. He had heard nothing about the clear covers, but speculated that it would hold up better than the black. Swimming pool covers help retain pool heat by reducing evaporation. For this purpose, color does not matter. At night any cover will have about the same effect. During the day though, solar energy from the sun heats the pool. You see all sorts of claims from cover manufacturers that their blanket "heats" the pool. This is false. All blankets block some of the solar energy coming from the sun. So which one blocks it the least? According to a government report I read, clear covers block 5-15% of the sun while colored ones block 20-40%. It's clear that clear is the way to go (sorry about the pun). The question then becomes, should I uncover my pool during the day when it is not in use? It depends. On calm, humid days, take it off for maximum heating. On dry, windy days, the evaporation loss outweighs the cover loss, so leave it on. Always leave it on on cloudy days and at night. Dave O
