What is the best kind of Swimming Pool Solar Cover? Blue or Clear?

May 29, 2008

A swimming pool solar cover is a cheap and efficient way to heat your swimming pool. Let the sun heat your pool water for free! With thousands of tiny bubbles, these swimming pool covers trap the sun’s heat on your pool water. A swimming pool solar cover keeps the heat from rising off your pool as fast. Another huge benefit of using a solar cover is its ability to slow water evaporation. Water evaporation is a big reason for heat and chemical loss.

Blue solar covers are more economical to purchase. The plastic of this cover is a little thinner than our clear solar covers and don’t let as much sunlight pass though to your water.

Our MagniClear swimming pool solar covers are 14mil. Clear swimming pool solar covers allow more sunlight to pass through to the water and since they are a little thicker, they should provide more insulation. They are heavier than a blue cover, so you need a high quality reel if you have a large pool.

At Megapoolandspa.com, you’ll find plenty of sizes at cheap prices.

We have cheap inground swimming pool solar covers and swimming pool solar covers for round and oval above ground pools.

    What is Wall Foam for Above ground swimming pools and how do you put it on?

    May 20, 2008

    Gladon Pool Products makes a lot of quality products for your above ground swimming pool vinyl liner replacement job.

    When you replace your pool liner, you should consider floor padding such as Happy Bottom Pool Pad to make the pool floor nice and comfortable to add a layer of cushion and protect the bottom of the pool.  Swimming Pool Cove sticks are placed at the bottom of the pool wall to protect the pool frame from the weight of the water.  But, don’t forget about the walls…..

    Gladon also makes a product called “Waveless Wall Foam”.

    The Above Ground Swimming Pool Wall Foam that we sell makes your swimming pool walls nice and smooth.   Another benefit of using wall foam is that it creates a little bit of insulation to keep heat from escaping your pool water temperature.

    The wall foam is 1/8″ thick, 48″ tall, and comes in several sizes.  At http://www.megapoolandspa.com, we have great prices on 65 , 75, 85, and 100 foot lengths.

    Our Wall Foam is flat, high quality, and easy to apply.   With the Gladon Foam Bond Adhesive Spray, you can bond the wall foam to swimming pool walls and almost any surface; including concrete and wood.  The foam bond comes in a aerosol can with a  high volume spray nozzle.  The blue foam lets you see where you’ve sprayed it and is easy to clean.

    Do I need to use an air pillow with an above ground swimming pool winter cover?

    May 18, 2008

    An “air pillow” is a common accessory when closing your aboveground swimming pool for the fall and winter months.  When you close your pool, you need to cover your pool with a winter pool cover.

    An air pillow is placed under the cover in the center of the pool.  The pillow raises the center of the cover and gives you two benefits.  First, rainwater and snowmelt would not puddle in the center of the cover, making it easier for you to get the standing water off your pool.  Also, the air pillow should help protect your pool walls because the freezing water as it expands and contracts would push up against the air pillow instead of your pool walls.

    Our above ground pool covers can withstand normal water settling on the center of the pool cover, so it’s not necessary to get an air pillow to simply keep the water off the center of the cover.

    Megapoolandspa.com sells cheap winter air pillows for above ground in various sizes.

    What is Pool Cove and do I need to use it when replacing a swimming pool liner?

    May 18, 2008

    Peel and Stick Pool Cove for Above Ground Pools is an important step when you change or put in an above ground swimming pool liner.

    Pool cove keeps the vinyl liner in place on the bottom of the walls. Without cove, the weight of the water can push the liner against the wall causing stress to the pool itself or under the frame.

    In the past, people had to use sand or dirt to build up the area. This is labor intensive and the dirt can easily washout leaving you with a liner failure. Gladon solves this problem with their Peel N Place Pool Cove. The swimming pool cove is made from a foam like material and has a tacky adhesive backing so you can stick the cove in place.

    The cove is economical, lightweight, flexible, and easy to install.
