Bought this in June 2023 and had to remove it yesterday 28 July 2024 as the material had deteriorated so badly I had little blue flakes all over my pool. The cover does heat the pool but the longevity just isn't there. I do not cover the pool with a non solar cover on top of this cover but imagine that might help the solar cover last longer.

Clear solar cover will keep your pool temp toasty and your chemicals from burning off in the hot sun! This product is durable. Would highly recommend. Be careful taking on and off and it will last you 2-3 swim seasons.

We first purchased this for a previous house that had an above ground pool and noticed how much warmer it kept the water than the typical blue colored solar covers. We had it for a couple of seasons before we moved. Purchased another one for an in-ground pool and it continues to work like a charm. The thicker mil holds up very well, and even more so now that we have a reel to help cover and uncover.

blanket started to break up/deteriorate in sun after 4 months of daily use. Also when pull with a roll up real, the weight caused the ends pulling to tear. Not the best quality. I have had others more expensive that lasted at least 1 year, and did not tear/deteriorate as quickly.Manufacturer fine print indicates warranty does not apply to deteriorate by chemicals in pool. It will be hard to prove that it was the sun and not the chemicals that deteriorated the blanket.

And acceptable product that helps keep the heat in when you heat your pool. The only problem is the little plastic bubbles tend to dissolve. The manufacturer does not warranty against the little bubbles dissolving just against the two layers delaminating. Just know you’re only gonna get about a year use out of them. This is about the third one I have bought.

We take very good care of our solar blanket. Roll it up on a reel, cover it with a heavy duty cover whenever it's not on the pool, clean it regularly. Never put it on if the chlorine level is higher than 3ppm. Had a problem with the seams tearing last month. Reached out to the company directly today and they covered it under warranty. Relieved and pleased with the customer service.These (all brands I've tried over the past 15 years) solar blankets are notorious for not lasting but it's a relief to have real customer support.

This is my fifth one of these of the same brand from the same supplier. Normally, they last two years. I get it, sun and chlorine are plastics two worst enemies, so these covers get it from both sides.On this latest one, it barely lasted one year.My cover has 4 seams, so five sections. On four of the sections (the fifth one was too narrow to have the strip), there is a strip, about 1 foot wide, that runs the full length of the cover. In these strips, you can clearly see how the bubbles have deteriorated and the cover is splitting and getting holes. One of these strips, happened to also be the center fold line when it was packed for shipping. It has suffered the worse, basically split the full length. I have a cover reel, and wrapped in white plastic over the winter.I reached out to the seller, but they say it is not covered, they only cover the seams. the seams are the strongest, thickest, most durable part and least likely to fail.Normally, I would let this go, but we had a pool party early this July, with numerous kids. Between myself and my pool guy, we must have skimmed the pool about 20 times over three days, but we could not get all the plastic out.At the party, several parents refused to allow their kids to swim concerned about the health hazard that those floating plastic particles might cause if swallowed by the kids.Overall, product does what you expect. Reduces evaporation (critical for water conservation where I live), keeps the water warm, especially for us older folks that like warm water, and helps to keep it clean, until the deteriorating kicks in.But, if it doesn't last one year, definitely not worth the $200, and they cannot express a warranty in the listing that is absolutely meaningless.

Must have product. Saves lots of money and creates comfort of lifetime. We live in San Diego, the weather for past 2 weeks was between 57 F at night and max 72 F during the day, partly cloudy. Our pool is free form approx. 36' x 18' and 5ft deep. We shaped solar cover to fit in the pool. Before using solar cover pool was loosing 2" of water per week, temperature would vary from 78 F in the morning to 82 F by the end of the day. After using cover for one week with 3 hours gap, when letting kids play, the temperature reached 95 F and it may continue to grow. It costs $250 of propane to once hit the pool by 15 degrees and it cools back down in 2 days. With solar cover pool is always 15 F warmer, that is about $150/day if one would require to do the same using propane heater. On top of it, there was no noticeable water loos due to evaporation ( saving of $50/week ). This is a great product to save on water bill, achieve 15 F increase in temperature, and extend pool season by 2-3 months. I previously installed water solar panels of size 22' x 16' and that provided 3 F increase in peak temperature, but it will drop to same base during the night, and it would not prevent evaporation. This cover is a true magic and in one month it pays off just by saving on water bill. The cover seems strong enough to last for many years.
