Solar Pool Cover in Florida with Screen

[elderjason]

I want to purchase a solar pool cover for my screened-in pool, which is in Tallahassee, Florida. My goal is to conserve the water temperature. What thickness and color do you recommend? Please feel free to share any advice about solar pool covers given my situation. Thank you! Jason

Inground pool specs: 18'x36', 20k gallon, depth ranging from 3'-11'

Welcome to TFP.

But something inexpensive as none of them last more then a few seasons. Color does not matter much and neither does thickness.

A solar cover is misnamed. It keeps heat in by preventing heat loss through water evaporation. Any cover preventing evaporation will work. Solar has little effects.
