Caring for your Solar Blanket

• Maximum recommended temperature for storage in the shade is 35 C.
• To help prevent damage to the bubbles, the Blanket should not be dragged over abrasive pool decks, or any sharp rough surfaces
• If the Blanket is removed for trimming or cleaning remember its solar heating ability. THE LAWN CAN BE BURNED IN LESS THAN ONE HOUR IF THE POOL BLANKET IS LEFT ON ONE PLACE.
• Water temperatures above 30 C may also shorten the life of the Solar Pool Blanket and, incidentally, could damage a painted pool as well. During summer, if pool temperatures rise above 30 C, the Blanket should be removed and stored in a shaded area.
• Most dirt and leaves can be hosed off the floating Blanket directly into your pool skimmer. Run the circulation pump during such hosing to send minute debris into the skimmer and through the filter instead of into the pool. If necessary the leaf basket or trap can be implied after hosing. Water and soft brush are generally all that is required to remove heavier grime and algae from the Blanket. A CLEAN BLANKET ALLOWS FOR MAXIMUM SOLAR ENERGY HEATING
•  After cleaning the Pool Blanket it is best to roll it up from one end. It should then be stored in a shaded or protected area below 35 C
  The Blanket will help maintain normal chlorine levels. Fixed dosing can result in higher than normal concentrations.
• This may reduce the life of the Solar Pool Blanket if left unchecked. Cyanuric acid will drastically deteriorate the life-span. This is typically found in floating chlorinators. Salt water chlorinators will also reduce the lifespan of the blanket.
