Solar blankets for pools

Solar blankets for pools are becoming more and more popular in residences across the United States for three main reasons: they trap heat in, keep debris out, and prevent loss of water due to evaporation.
• Water loss – a pool left completely uncovered is prone to evaporation. This means that the pool must constantly be refilled – some pools lose more than an inch of water each week. While an inch may not seem like a lot, it can really add up after an entire swimming season. Also, the balance of chemicals is weakened as water is lost.
• Debris – leaves, dust, and other debris not only makes a pool look dirty and less desirable for swimming, but it can also stain or bleach a pool if allowed to sink to the bottom and decompose. Solar blankets for pools cover the entire swimming pool, leaving few spots for debris to sneak in – with a solar blanket in use, less cleaning maintenance is required.
• Heat – heating is actually the main purpose of the “blankets.” Not only do they trap heat in and prevent it from escaping during cool nights, they also create additional heat. The blankets are made of many bubbles (and look a bit like bubble wrap). Each of these bubbles magnifies the sun. Also, dark colored blankets absorb more heat.

Solar blankets for pools should be used whenever the pool is not in use. Reels can be used in conjunction with the cover to ensure that it is easy to put on and take off of the pool.
