Applications & Fitment
This solar cover is ideal for above-ground pools sized at 24′ round. It helps extend your swim season by retaining heat, reduces operating costs by limiting evaporation and chemical loss, and improves overall pool comfort. Confirm your pool diameter and shape before ordering.
Installation Instructions
- When your pool is warmed to your desired temperature, place the cover on the pool surface with the bubble side down toward the water.
- Center the cover and trim any excess if necessary (for overtime shrinkage, a small overlap may be trimmed).
- Use a cover reel or floatation device if desired for easier removal and storage.
- Remove the cover when the pool is used; replace immediately after use to maintain heat and reduce debris entry.
Troubleshooting & Maintenance
- Water not getting warmer: Check that the cover is centered, the bubble side is down and that the pool is exposed to sun. Also confirm there are no tears or large debris gaps.
- Cover sagging or folding inward: Ensure the cover fits the pool size and that any excess is trimmed or secured with side clips or straps to prevent waterlogging.
- Cover showing wear or holes: Inspect annually for punctures or thinning; small holes can compromise heating efficiency and allow increased evaporation.
Maintenance Tip
At the start and end of each swimming season, clean the cover with mild soap and water, rinse thoroughly and let it dry before folding or storing. Store in a cool, shaded location away from sharp objects. Replacing the cover every few seasons ensures it continues to deliver optimal heating and evaporation control.
