About this deal

Solar pool covers perform several functions. However, different designs are best for different functions. None of them are the best at fulfilling every need. Consider the following factors to help decide what qualities to look for. Climate Jimmie Meece, Brand President of America’s Swimming Pool Company. He provided insight on the most common materials for solar pool covers and how to size a pool cover appropriately for maximum effectiveness.

This solar pool cover measures 7 feet by 7 feet but can be trimmed to fit the size and shape of your hot tub. This may pose some challenges if your hot tub is circular in shape, as it may be harder to trim the cover to fit the round dimensions of your hot tub. Like solar covers for regular pools, this one also comes in a light blue color that minimizes the effect of UV rays on water chemistry, while the round bubbles allow for heat transfer to the water underneath. Keep in mind that this isn’t a replacement for a hot tub safety cover. Instead, it’s designed to be used on in-ground spas and hot tubs where you’re looking to minimize evaporation (up to 95 percent) and maximize heat retention. To mimic the effect of a typical pool cover, the Coverfree solution works by creating a barrier on the surface of your pool water. It’s pH-neutral, invisible, and entirely safe for swimmers. The most significant advantage of using this liquid solar pool cover is that it saves you the time and hassle associated with removing and replacing bulky physical pool covers. However, it is worth keeping in mind that this solution will not protect your pool from UV rays or debris that may blow into the pool. Therefore, you will need a pool cleaner to keep your ground free of leaves and twigs. We offer a range of high performance ‘Guard’ swimming pool cover materials; Sol+Guard™, EnergyGuard™ and CoolGuard™. GeoBubble technology combined with these bubble cover materials will give you a longer lasting* swimming pool cover with the highest energy and chemical saving efficiencies. Liquid solar covers can be used to raise the pool's temperature without the hassle of installing and removing a conventional blanket or disc. A downside is that the water is exposed to debris like leaves and twigs.

Swimming Pool Solar covers and heat retention covers

In general, clear solar covers are best at heating water, while solid colors do better at keeping heat trapped in the water. Up to 15 degrees Fahrenheit of free heating can be obtained on a moderately sunny day with a clear or translucent cover. An opaque cover will allow the pool heater to run less during a cool night by maintaining water temperature. Pool Usage

The most common type of solar cover is a solar blanket. Made with tiny thermal bubbles, they are excellent at retaining heat and water in pools. If that’s not enough, chlorine, the chemical that keeps our pools safe, also plays a big role in the deterioration of pool covers. Chlorine is a corrosive chemical that breaks down molecular bonds nearly as effectively as UV rays. What Can I Do About It?Light blue or deep blue is definitively the “it” color for a pool liner. Not only does it make your pool more picturesque, but a blue color also absorbs sunlight to help make the pool feel a little warmer. Air Bubbles The GeoBubble shape is scientifically designed specifically for use in a harsh swimming pool environment, and sets a new quality benchmark for all other swimming pool bubble cover materials. When not in use, keep the cover out of the sun by placing it in a shelter or covering it with a protective cover. There are some things you can do to slow the rate of deterioration and prolong the lifespan of your solar cover. They don’t stop the breakdown from happening, but can delay the process. Air bubbles in your pool liner can signify rising groundwater that seeps under the vinyl that pushes up the liner to cause air bubbles. Other causes could be an improper installation of the liner, damage from vacuuming the liner, or any other reason that would cause the liner to shift. UV Resistance
