Hi,
My pool water is finally almost TFP clear (thanks everyone!).
I have a solar blanket, and I've heard that it needs to be placed with the bubble-side down.
A few questions about the solar blanket:
1) Does it actually result in a temp increase? Or does it only retain the existing heat?
2) What is the effect on the evaporation of water?
3) What is the effect on the liquid chlorine that I use? Will it result in more or less chlorine being used over time?
4) I used the cover a year ago and stopped using it because it used to collect a lot of dirt that would sink to the bottom when I removed the cover. Any tips? I realize I should hand-skim the cover before removing it, but wondering if the hassle is worth it based on the questions above.
Thank you!
Dylan
