What is the difference between the clear and the blue solar blanket?
Reply
First, the clear solar blanket is thicker than the blue; the clear is 14 mil thick while the blue is 12 mil. Secondly, the clear allows the sun to pass through the blanket thus heating the water better. The blue blanket tends to absorb the heat itself so the blanket gets hot, not the water. Lastly, the clear blanket has a 6 year warranty as opposed to the 5 year warranty for the blue.

Does the solar cover come with an overlap like a winter cover does?

No, the solar cover does not come with an overlap. A solar cover is designed to sit on top of the water's surface and fits on the inside perimeter of the pool wall.

Is the warranty a 6 year full replacement warranty or full for a period say 2 years and then partial after that period. Is there actually a written warranty that one can read before buying?

Hi Jim, Here's a copy on how the 6-Year Warranty is broken down.

My pool size is 10' x 28'. Do you have anything that size? Is the clear more efficient than the blue solar blanket? Is the 14 mill the heaviest solar blanket you carry?

Good afternoon, yes this would be the closest size blanket to your pool. You can trim down to fit.
