Blue Wave NS510 14-mil Solar Blanket for Rectangular In-Ground Pools, 12-ft x 24-ft, Clear

Great product. I like how thick and sturdy the blanket feels. It heated my pool up more quickly than other blankets I have had in the past. I hope it lasts for years!

We live in a warm, windy and mostly sunny place but the pool was always a bit cold and we stopped swimming in it 6 months a year. We left the blanket on the pool when not swimming. In two days, we could feel the water was better. In a week, it was so warm we could just lay in the water at night. My son complained it was more a jacuzzi than a pool, he found it too hot! It's easy to adjust the temperature by letting the cover on more or less time. When the winds blew, the pool cover stayed in place and the water stayed deliciously warm. We have only tried it in spring yet and we love it. The cover arrived very quickly. It was bulky but not to heavy for two people. The blanket was easy to cut to follow the shape of the pool. One person can put or remove the cover but it is easier and faster with two people. We also noticed less water loss probably due to less evaporation. On the minus side, the pool doesn't look as beautiful with the plastic cover on the water. You see plastic, not water. You have to get used to the hassle of removing the cover when you want to swim. But for us, it is well worth it. We love our warm water and our only regret is to not have bought one earlier.

Quality looks to be very good. Thick strong plastic with bubbles on one side and the other side flat. Good that it is Canadian made! Price excellent for the quality - better than others that I studied online and in-store. It arrived very quickly and was wrapped well in a 18 x 48 inch roll. It was easy to trim to size with heavy scissors.

Let me start off by saying I wasn’t expecting much for this cover since we had purchased a blue cover at a yard sale however my wife insisted. I was wrong. When we got the cover it was lighter than expected however much stronger than the previous cover. We read somewhere the clear cover allowed more sun through to heat the water so we decided on clear. The cover was easy to roll out and so easy to cut to our oddly shaped pool size, a pair of good scissors worked fine. Very rugged material that would not tear but easy to cut. Once we got the cover in place the temperature during the day was in the mid 90’s and sunny and dropped to the upper 50’s at night. In two days the pool temp stayed in the upper 80’s and didn’t fall like it normally would to the mid to low 60’s to match close to the night temperatures. We got at least another month out of enjoying the pool. Hope it helps to reduce evaporation also. We had a lot of rain, for Arizona, 5 inches within a week and I was worried the cover might sink however it shed the water over to the edges and back into the pool without a problem. Was not affected by wind either. Two bad thins, the pool service requires us to remove the cover befor they will service the pool so we remove it on the day they come and put it back later. The other thing is one of our dogs tried to walk on it and it held long enough for us to get him. The dog had never went near the pool before so please be careful. Excellent product and would recommend it highly.

La calidad del protector es buena, al ser transparente permite el paso de la luz lo que calienta mas el agua del alberca sin que se pierda temperatura. Bien empacado y en buenas condiciones, completo y sin rasgaduras.
