In The Swim Solar Pool Cover

The aluminized bottom layer acts as a reflective surface that directs heat back into the pool water rather than allowing it to escape. This design significantly increases heat retention and maximizes the solar energy absorbed during the day.

Yes, the material is designed to be easily trimmed with a pair of heavy-duty household scissors. You can cut it to fit custom shapes or to accommodate pool ladders and equipment.

While results vary based on your local climate and sun exposure, this 16-mil cover is highly effective at trapping heat. Users typically see a significant increase in water temperature, which helps extend the swimming season by several weeks on both ends.

Yes, by creating a physical barrier over the water surface, the cover drastically reduces evaporation. This not only saves water but also prevents chemical loss, meaning you won't need to replenish your pool chemicals as frequently.

The 16-mil thickness is considered a heavy-duty grade for solar covers, offering a balance between effective insulation and manageable weight. The UV-stabilized resin and reinforced seams are specifically engineered to withstand long-term exposure to sun and pool chemicals.

To maximize the life of the cover, it should be kept out of direct sunlight when removed from the pool. We recommend using a solar cover reel or folding it loosely and storing it in a shaded, dry area.
