The
use of solar
pool covers is necessary if you want to save energy and
thereby save money. Even if you use a solar pool heater, you still need
a cover to retain the solar heat created.
Basically, a cover traps in the heat in the pool area. By leaving this
cover on for 24 hours at a time, the temperature of the pool could increase
up to more than 10 degrees.
However, trying to heat the pool efficiently without the cover is nearly
impossible. Doing this can be compared to trying to heat a house without
a roof. The heat simply rises and exits the pool area without a cover
to block it.
Another way to keep the pool warm is to get a cover that is at least
semi-transparent. This way the cover can work in two ways. First of
all, it traps the air inside of the pool area. Secondly, it allows the
suns warm rays to seep through the cover. This further heats the pool
even more.
Solar pool covers are pre-made in a variety of sizes and shapes, but
they can also be custom made as well.
In sum, solar pool
covers will benefit you in many ways. For one, they will warm your
pool. They will also reduce water evaporation and even chemical evaporation.
They will even cut down on heat losses at night.
Here at Solar Home, we sell pool covers that are very affordable.
So, why would you want a solar pool cover for your own pool? Let us
further explain the reasons: a solar pool cover is going to both retain
the heat of your pool while adding heat by elliciting the sun's rays.
This is a very good thing. Why? Well, heating a pool can cost a lot
of money. Just think of how much of your electricity bill is made
up of the costs of heating your pool. Just think of how wasteful that
is (both in terms of money and in terms of damage to the environment)
when you could, instead, be utilizing one of our solar pool covers!
