We had some lightening that must have kicked off the pool pump sometime Thursday evening. I went to add chlorine Friday evening. After I backed the auto cover far enough to add chlorine I noticed the water wasn't moving over the return. I stuck my hand into the pool to check the flow at the eyeball. There was about 2 - 3 inches of very hot water with a sharp separation between the layers of cold and hot. It was hot enough to be uncomfortable. I guess that answers the question of whether or not the new auto cover works as well as our old solar cover.
No harm, no foul but it was a surprise. I reset the ground fault and everything started up. We are having hot days and no rain for a change. A full day in the sun was enough to really heat the upper layer of water. The auto cover is a dark grey.
