Exclusive benefit of solar blanket: heating pool water

To begin with, let me tell you that it is very useful that if you want to heat the pool water you read our entry dedicated to this with Tips and methods for heated pool / heating pool water (suitable for all budgets).

Solar pool cover and pool heating

The solar pool cover is very effective in contributing to heating the pool and maintaining the water temperature.

In addition, the solar pool cover is an effective system that It relies on solar energy.

How much does the solar pool blanket increase the water temperature?

• Generically, The pool cover increases the water temperature between 3 and 8 degrees. All this, depending on the location, situation, orientation, climate of the pool. And, another requirement will also be how many hours the pool thermal blanket is on.
• We will even bring forward and extend the swimming season.
• In the early morning and at night we will considerably preserve the temperature of the pool water.
• When the sun's ultraviolet rays heat the summer pool cover through the translucent bubbles of the blanket, creating a greenhouse effect, it naturally absorbs the temperature and heats the water inside the glass.
• On the other hand, the thermal pool blanket It has insulating characteristics in its upper bubbles, which conserve and will retain the temperature of the pool water.
• Because of the pool cover we will create a barrier between the water and the air and therefore we will prevent the evaporation of the pool water, which represents 75% of the pool temperature loss, and as a result we will reduce the cooling of the pool.
• According to studies carried out, the thermal pool blanket The use of heating equipment will even decrease by up to 70% used in the pool.

Pool thermal blanket operation

How a thermal pool blanket works

• To begin with, remember that the summer pool cover is a large sheet of bubble wrap which is made of high-resistance PVC and custom made to cover the entire water surface of the pool.
• When the sun's ultraviolet rays hit the summer pool cover, they poach it and through the translucent bubbles of the cover, a greenhouse effect is generated that absorbs the temperature naturally by heating the water inside the glass.
• On the other hand, We will maintain the water temperature since the thermal pool blanket has insulating characteristics in its upper bubbles.s, which conserve and do not let heat escape.
• Because of the pool cover we will create a barrier between the water and the air and therefore We will prevent the evaporation of pool water, which represents 75% of the pool temperature loss., and as a result we will reduce the cooling of the pool.
• Finally, The solar cover has two sides. The side of the solar cover with bubbles is the insulating side, which must be put in contact with the water. On the other hand, the side of the solar cover that does not have bubbles is the one that has the treatment against ultraviolet rays.

Tips for use pool thermal blanket

1. When you already plan not to bathe, cover the pool so that the thermal blanket can perform the corresponding functions of heating the pool water, maintenance, etc.
2. In order to maximize the properties and useful life of the thermal blanket, it is necessary that we remove it and protect it from the sun when we are bathing.
3. Remove the pool thermal blanket when carrying out any type of chemical treatment in the pool (especially before shock treatments of the pool).
4. On the other hand, place the summer pool enclosure with the bubble side down to properly insulate the pool.
5. The summer pool cover should NEVER be used as a winter cover (hibernation).

How long does a solar pool cover last?

Duration of bubble canvas for swimming pools

First of all, as can be predicted, solar pool covers age and therefore gradually lose properties.

Commonly, the duration of solar pool covers is approximately 4 – 6 years.

Deterioration factors for thermal pool covers

• Mainly the thermal pool blanket deteriorates due to the action of the sun (ultraviolet rays) and chemical products.
• So, the more protected we have the pool bubble cover, the longer its life will be.

When to replace the summer pool blanket

How to measure a solar cover

The answer to how to measure a solar cover to proceed with its manufacturing is very simple.

Below we explain, depending on the type of pool, how to determine the size of the solar pool cover.

How to determine the size of the solar pool cover

Pool cover size with regular shape

Steps to measure a regular pool cover

The typical example of a regularly shaped pool is usually either square or rectangular.

• Measure the inside of the pool in its length and width (from the inside wall of the pool to the other inside wall of the pool). In other words, measure the water level.

Pool cover size with regular shape and external ladder

Steps to measure a regular-shaped pool cover and external ladder

• Use a template to draw the shape of the pool.
• Measure what the inside part of the pool is.
• Draw a sketch of the staircase and measure the inside of it.

Round pool cover size

Steps to measure a round or oval pool cover

• Measure its diameter.
• Measure the width of the pool.
• Then the total length of the pool.
• And finally, the circumference or total length according to its shape.

Kidney-shaped pool cover size

Steps to measure cobertors with kidney-type shapes or free pool shapes

1. In this case, pools with kidney or other shapes, also we will make a template to be able to write down the measurements of the pool.
2. We will measure the length of the pool along an imaginary line joining opposite ends of the longest axis.
3. Then We will take measurements of the width of the kidney pool shape bulge and also record the measurement of the smallest kidney shape.
4. We will estimate the surface area using the formula: Area = (A + B) x Length x 0.45
5.  In addition, There is a technique to check if we have recorded the measurements of the kidney-shaped pool correctly: Divide the surface area by 0.45 times the length of the pool (if the value does not give us the combined width of the pool it will mean that we have taken the measurements incorrectly).

Free-form pool cover size

Steps to measure irregular pool cover

1. Recommendation for measuring irregular pool: making a template.
2. We take the measurements below the edges on both sides of the pool and we write them on our template, drawing them on the inside of the pool.
3. We expand and tension a piece of plastic over the pool, pointing out the shape, we write down the measurements taken. openly noting what the outside part of the pool is.
4. We compare the measurements by measuring the diagonals of the pool (the measurement should come out the same)

Pool cover size irregular free shape according to cover side reinforcements

Steps to measure irregular free-form pool cover according to cover side reinforcements

• Free-shaped pool (irregular) without requiring lateral reinforcement in the solar pool cover : measure length and width of the pool.
• On the other hand, if the pool is free-form and we want the thermal blanket to have a lateral reinforcement: in this case it is better than Contact us without any type of commitment.

Irregular pool cover size with rounded corners

Steps to measure an irregular pool with rounded corners, cutouts or complex shapes.

How to choose a thermal pool cover

Factors to consider when choosing a thermal pool blanket

1. Pool thermal blanket price/economic factor : There are many models, qualities and prices on the market, it will be necessary to study them according to our budget. Contact us without obligation for: quote for thermal pool blanket.
2. Quality of the manufacturing material of the thermal pool cover (the higher the weight, the better the quality).
3. Color option for the thermal pool blanket.
4. Pool thermal blanket thickness option: measured in microns (the higher the micron value, the better the quality).
5. Free or very large pool shape: Check if it is more profitable for you to buy two smaller thermal pool blankets, instead of buying a custom one.
6. Guarantee given to us by the manufacturer for the thermal pool blanket.

How to evaluate the quality of the solar pool blanket

• Mainly, the quality of the solar pool blanket is given by the thickness of the polyethylene sheet from which it is made.
• The more microns the thickness of the solar pool blanket has, the better quality it will be.

Color bubble pool cover

Just contrary to what is thought, The more transparent the pool thermal blanket is, the more solar radiation it will let through.

For heat the pool water it is better that the solar blanket is black

• First of all, the color of the thermal pool blanket It will not influence the heating of the water too much, because the water is heated through a wintering effect (so, if there is no solar radiation it does not heat).
• Transparent covers allow sunlight to pass through so that the water can absorb this energy.
• While opaque or black bubble covers absorb light, preventing most of the solar energy from reaching the pool.
• In this way, perhaps the black pool solar blanket It will somewhat prevent the pool water from cooling down. but we repeat, it will not heat it more than another model of another color.

Color bubble pool cover

Transparent bubble pool cover

• Transparent covers are designed to transmit a large proportion of the sun's visible and infrared (IR) radiation, using it to heat your pool water.
• The amount of energy a transparent cover will transmit is closely related to the color and concentration of the pigment used. The more transparent the cover, the more solar energy will penetrate the pool.

Black or opaque bubble pool cover

• Unlike transparent covers, opaque covers do not heat your pool through the transmission of solar energy, but instead conduct the energy absorbed from the sun to the water directly below. Therefore, an opaque cover will not heat a pool as efficiently as a streaming cover. Although the main feature of opaque materials is not heating the water, they have other great advantages such as reducing chemicals and preventing algae proliferation. They also reduce energy and resource consumption.
