Review on Sun2Solar 12Ft X 18Ft Oval Solar Heat Retaining Blanket 1200 Series Bundle W/ 6-Pack Grommets For In-Ground & Above-Ground Pools by Rick Pickering

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great! - my new review

It arrived on Saturday afternoon. and after installing the grommets (more later), we placed it on pool (bubbles down) with roughly 70-degree water. We didn't have much sun over the next few days, but then temps jumped up into mid-90s for 3 days and pool and pool temp jumped to 86-degrees. Perfect. We cleaned it up and packed it way, hopefully, until fall of next spring.It was interesting that the grommets came separately via mail and not in the box, but both arrived the same day. You have to install them yourself. It's not difficult but there is no set location to install them, basically put them wherever you want. I took a block and a rubber mallet and tapped them together. The process punches out a small circle of the blanket. And they seemed pretty secure. I'm not entirely sure these add much to the unit since they are too small to get my fingers in.Installation is pretty easy but is best a 2-3 person job depending on the size (we got the 15x27) since it slides across the water as you try to position it.

Pros
  • Parts & Accessories
Cons
  • Can become discolored and unsightly over time due to sun exposure, detracting from the overall aesthetic of the area
