Anyone have a solar blanket with a Polaris type pressure-side cleaner in action?
I was thinking to add a blanket to capture/retain some warmth in our Sacramento summers. The pool gets shade roughly 1/3 of the daylight hours from structures and trees, so I think we could use a couple more degrees of warming if we want after-dark swimming.
In the meantime we have an old Polaris pressure-side sweep that runs from about midnight to 4AM to clean. The hose does not stay underwater all the time, it will rise to the surface now and then. I don't know if this is to be expected or not as it's my first pool (and my first sweep).
So I'm concerned that having a blanket on the pool overnight will end up jamming the sweep or moving the blanket around. Does anyone know otherwise?
