You apply the solar pool cover either very early in the morning, or the night before you want to go swimming in the pool. Keep in mind, that if the sun hits it for long periods of time, it will make the pool water extremely hot, so make sure that it is in a partially shaded area if you are going to put it on the day before, and if the sun is always on it, then put it on the morning before you go swimming.

Can you add optimizer plus to a pool with the solar cover on?
It's not possible to add optimizer plus to a pool with the solar cover on. You will need to remove the solar cover from part or all of the pool in order to put optimizer or other pool treatment products into your swimming pool water.

How much heat gained with solar pool cover?
A solar pool cover can help increase the temperature of a pool by around 5-10 degrees Fahrenheit depending on factors like sunlight exposure and pool size. The amount of heat gained will vary but generally, solar pool covers are effective at harnessing solar energy to warm up the pool water.
What direction do you put pool solar cover?
Bubbles down
What is the price range for pool covers?
It is depends on the type, brand and size. It cost about $219 for the 10m x 6m solar swimming pool blanket cover and $512 for the solar pool cover 500 micron series.
Will a concrete pool with no reflective liner heat up faster with or without a solar cover during the day?
A pool with a solar cover will absorb the heat faster during the day and when left on the pool over night it will prevent the loss of heat.
What is The difference in a solar blanket and a solar cover?
A solar blanket is a thicker and more durable cover that helps retain heat and reduces evaporation in a pool, while a solar cover is a lighter and thinner option that primarily focuses on heat retention. Solar blankets tend to last longer and provide better insulation, while solar covers are more affordable and easier to handle for regular use.
Which way up dose a solar pool cover go?
The smooth side of a solar pool cover should face down toward the water to help trap heat and prevent debris from entering the pool. The bubbles or air pockets on the cover should face up, as they help to capture and retain heat from the sun.
Should you leave the vinyl pool cover on when using a solar blanket or does the pool cover above the solar blanket hinder the solar blanket's performance?
Remove the vinyl cover when using a solar blanket to warm the water. If the vinyl cover is used at the same time as the solar blanket, the vinyl cover absorbs most of the heat and then transfers the heat into the air or water between the vinyl cover and the solar blanket. Then the heat transfers to the solar blanket and then, finally, into the water. When this happens, a lot of heat remains in the vinyl cover and air/water between the two covers instead of getting into the water. It is preferable to have the heat absorbed by the solar cover and then transfer directly into the water. Hope this helps... Too much redundancy in pool covers.
