Solar pool covers work by trapping solar energy through thousands of air-filled bubbles that act like tiny magnifying glasses, while creating an insulating barrier that prevents heat loss and evaporation.
Yes, pools can leak due to structural damage, equipment failures, or plumbing issues. Most pools lose 1/4 inch of water daily from evaporation, but losses exceeding 1/2 inch daily typically indicate a leak.
Pool blankets are beneficial for most pools, reducing chemical usage by 35-60%, heating costs by 50-70%, and water evaporation by 95%. The decision depends on your climate, pool usage, and budget priorities.
