It uses a clear, bubble-textured sheet to trap warmth from the sun and insulate the pool surface at night, lowering heat loss and slowing water loss. The cover is simple to lay on top of the pool and remove when you want to swim, and it helps reduce the frequency of chemical adjustments by keeping contaminants and evaporation to a minimum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the INTEX solar cover warm and protect my pool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover's air-pocket (bubble) construction captures and transfers solar energy into the pool while forming a barrier against wind-driven evaporation and airborne debris.
