A pool solar cover is a canopy that covers a pool to reduce evaporation and heat loss from the water. It is a great addition to any pool at home or business, especially if it reduces energy costs or covers an unshaded pool. Solar covers can be installed in a matter of hours and are a great solution for pools with no shading issues. The cover can be retractable, allowing you to fully open the pool during the warmer months and retract it during the colder months. Solar covers are best suited for use in residential or small commercial properties where there is little to no shading from nearby trees or buildings. Solar covers are also a good option for retrofitting unshaded pools in rental properties where the new owner may not want to maintain the cover once they move out of the property.
Solar covers will reduce evaporation and heat loss from the water, as well as lower the amount of energy needed to heat the water.

Solar covers are a great option for unshaded pools since they can be retracted during the warmer months and fully opened during the colder months. Solar covers are also a good option for retrofitting unshaded pools in rental properties where the new owner may not want to maintain the cover once they move out of the property. Solar covers are a good option for any pool that is not fully shaded, especially if the pool is in a remote location.
If you are installing a solar cover on a new pool, you will need to dig a trench in the ground around the pool. The trench should be at least 2 feet deep. To protect the surrounding area, cover the trench with landscape fabric. Next, place a layer of sand in the trench and the solar cover fabric on top of the sand. Then, cover the fabric with landscape fabric and water-resistant sand. The water-resistant sand helps protect the sand from the water in the trench and the sand will help protect the fabric from UV degradation and insects. Once the sand and fabric are in place, cover the sand and fabric with landscape fabric and water-resistant sand. Cover the final sand layer with landscape fabric and water-resistant sand. Finally, cover the entire area with landscape fabric.
