SOLAR BLANKETS
How a Solar Blanket works.
Solar Blankets are made from a film of thousands of tiny
bubbles, which work together to collect and retain heat in
your pool. The Solar Blanket floats on top of the water and
allows the solar energy to pass through, then traps it as
retained heat in the pool. It is also ideal as a thermal blanket
for heated pools.
How do they work?
Solar Blankets are designed to retain heat. Solar energy
(short wavelength) easily passes through the blanket. The
heat is retained in the water, which radiates at longer wavelengths.
It is restricted from readily dissipating into the atmosphere
due to the special design of the blanket (see diagram, right).
What do they do?
Solar Blankets will increase pool water temperature by 10
to 15 degrees and will reduce heating costs up to 75%. Pool
water stays warmer longer, therefore extending the swimming
season. Most heat loss in a pool is caused by evaporation.
A solar blanket will trap the heat in and reduce evaporation
by around 95% and will save up to 50% on pool chemical usage
while the pool is covered. The blanket also acts as a barrier
to prevent leaves and debris from entering the pool, thereby
reducing maintenance time.
Storage Reels
A Storage Reel makes using a pool blanket easy. Portable
and lightweight, fitting and storing the blanket becomes a
one person job.
