I live in NJ and am considering getting a solar cover for my free-form in ground pool (22K gallons, approx 18x40') since the water temperature constantly hovers around the 74 degree mark making it chilly for the kids to go in. Putting a gas heater is not an option since there are no gas lines close by.
Is it advisable to invest in a reel and a rectangular cover that covers about 85% of the pool area? Given I'm in NJ and the fact that the pool does receive a good 7 hours of direct sunshine, can I expect at least a 7-8 degree in temperature with the solar cover?
Replies and tips are hugely appreciated!
