Exact size. If you cut it larger it tends to migrate up the sides leaving uncovered spots because of wind and surface tension.

Answerwith bubbles DOWN.Lay cover over pool and let cover "relax" in the sun. Use good sharp scissors and don't cut/chop, but slice while holding scissiors in a "V" Holding hand along the edge of the deck, just walk and slice the cover around the perimeter of the pool using the deck as a guide. Should fit like a dream. Special Kare pools/Las Vegas

Ah, percisely the way I do it. Ken

What is The difference in a solar blanket and a solar cover?

They are the same thing basically. Pool Cover, Solar Cover, solar Blanket are all used interchangeably. It's basically some material, usually a plastic bubble mesh or vinyl covering that goes over the pool. The exception to this is Winter Cover which generally is heavier and designed to protect your pool during long winter months.

Will a concrete pool with no reflective liner heat up faster with or without a solar cover during the day?

A pool with a solar cover will absorb the heat faster during the day and when left on the pool over night it will prevent the loss of heat.


Should you leave the vinyl pool cover on when using a solar blanket or does the pool cover above the solar blanket hinder the solar blanket's performance?

Remove the vinyl cover when using a solar blanket to warm the water. If the vinyl cover is used at the same time as the solar blanket, the vinyl cover absorbs most of the heat and then transfers the heat into the air or water between the vinyl cover and the solar blanket. Then the heat transfers to the solar blanket and then, finally, into the water. When this happens, a lot of heat remains in the vinyl cover and air/water between the two covers instead of getting into the water. It is preferable to have the heat absorbed by the solar cover and then transfer directly into the water. Hope this helps... Too much redundancy in pool covers.


Do you leave the solar pool cover on an above ground pool while the pool filter is running?

Yes. The filter will pull water into the skimmer from under the cover and send it back into the pool through the return line. In fact, when using a solar cover the pool will warm slightly faster if the water is circulating (the solar cover is continuously heating all of the water rather than a just a small layer of already warm water right under the cover). Heat flows faster the greater the temperature difference. Hope this helps...
