How to Put a Solar Cover on a Pool
Solar covers or solar blankets are a good way to extend the pool season, especially if you live in a cold climate. Solar covers are made of polyethylene, which will not rot from the heat of the sun. Keeping a cover on the pool during the day helps absorb heat from the sun. Keeping a cover on the pool at night, helps retain that heat. The solar cover also helps keep debris out of the pool, so cleaning is less of a chore.
