How to install a new solar cover

Fitting a solar blanket is a relatively simple job. Take your time, and cut it at least twice – and preferably leave 2 to 3 weeks before your final trim. This allows for the packing folds to flatten out, and for the cover to settle. It is possible for a cover to lose around 10% in length within the first couple of weeks – this is allowed for on a new cover, so bear it in mind, and do not cut too much off thinking the cover is too big.
