Pool Solar Blanket - Heavy Duty Rectangular Thermal Cover with Bubbles - Heat Transfer Solar Pool Heater for In-Ground Swimming Pools - Durable 12 Mil Thick Polyethylene - 16' x 32' Feet

Works well. Was surprised by how much heat it holds in, about 2 degrees a night ( during moderate weather) which adds up daily with a pool heater, especially as you first warm the pool. If the sun is out will heat a little faster with cover. Can be folded out of pool and back in, with 1 person.

Seems solid and well-made. I use it with a reel and find it saves on both heating and evaporation of water. Yes, it takes some discipline and effort to put it in place but I feel it is worth it, especially if you do not use your pool every day. Regardless of brand, I have found these only last about two years (in FL) before the plastic starts deteriorating. Warranties only cover "defects in workmanship" but not longevity. I have tried the clear version and found little difference - it's mostly a matter of taste.

I am honestly quite shocked at how well this works. We open our pool late April but the water temp hovers around 70-75 until june at least. I prefer 80+. I had been leaving the blanket on all day and night since the daytime highs are only 70-80 and windy, not ideal swimming weather but sunny. We had a few days near 90 which helped heat it up. Without the blanket we reliably lost 5+ degrees overnight, but now it retains that and has heated up much faster. We’ve been swimming in 80-85 degree water since mid May, even for my daughter’s birthday party which we’ve never been able to do! I was lucky to get the 18x36 for an amazing price, the only reason I gave it a try in the first place. It wasn’t too bad taking it on and off, but we just set up a reel yesterday so now it’s a piece of cake. Love this!! It’s really thick, not flimsy at all. Wish I had gotten one 2 years ago :-) The picture shows this mornings outside temp at 67, and pool temp at 82. In even bought a depth temp sensor to test the temp several feet into the deep end, thinking these blankets just heated the surface of our 16x40 pool….but that’s a consistent temp even 5 feet down. Just saved myself $10k for a pool heater and gas line.

It has a good heft/thickness and quality feel, but is difficult to manage as we put it on the pool manually and do not have it on a mechanism to roll it up. Folding it up is not really possible and we just take it off and try to bunch it up as best we can when not in use. We only put it on when we know we won’t be using the pool for extended periods as it is a hassle to take on and off. However, it does serve its purpose to keep debris out when it is on the pool. Also, I like the blue color as we had clear years ago, which showed dirt easily went it built up. We were able to cut the plastic to meet the shape of our pool. It hasn’t ripped and has withstood being taken off and put back on numerous times.

I got this 12 mil version in size 14x28 in hopes that thicker would last longer. The pool cover felt heavier and actually looks to be good quality, but after only a month on the pool the seams are separating. Sadly my cover has 2 seams that renders it useless. I usually buy the cheapest pool cover I can find knowing they only last a season. Every pool cover I have ever bought has had the bubbles degrade and flake off in about a year in Las Vegas sun. This one is truly defective and I'm going to attempt to go through the warranty process. If they fix it, I'll return and update the review. They either had a bad production batch or just have inferior seam welding.

Works great keeping our above ground pool WARM in So. Cal. Depending on outside temperature this could warm pool water between 85-90 degrees

It's very useful and it heats the pool.

Works well perfect fit.

La cubierta está en buen precio pero viene muy mal unida, se hacen muchas arrugas
