1	Place your pool blanket on the surface of your pool with the bubble side facing downward.

2	Before trimming your pool blanket it’s important to float it on your pool for a few hours. This allows packing creases to settle.

Then it’s ready to cut. The blanket should be cut 5-7.5cm over the edge of your pool and up the tiles. Take care that it remains below the rim of your pool. Your cover will float on the pool surface with the edges curved up the tiling, creating a dish-like effect and preventing debris from entering the pool. Cut a small flap, approximately 5cm, so you can hose debris that collects on your cover into the skimmer box.

Note: When cutting the blanket to shape, cut oversize and allow to settle for finesse trimming later

4	Once your blanket has been cut to size, it doesn’t need weights or ties to keep it in place. With the bubble-side placed downward on the surface of your pool, it will float in position through both heavy winds and rain.

Installation of your Sancell solar pool blanket should be a simple procedure and with care it should fit neatly on your pool, effectively cutting the costs of heating and cleaning.

Cleaning and storage All you need to clean your Sancell Solar Pool Blanket or Thermal Pool Cover is a soft brush and clean cold water. Any time you plan to store your cover it’s important to make sure you hose it off with clean cold water. This will prevent chlorine build-up which can be damaging. Although not as damaging, mildew or algae build-up can be easily removed with a light scrubbing. When storing your cover for a long period of time, such as over winter, allow it to dry first to prevent the growth of mould and mildew. Your solar pool blanket should be protected from high temperatures and direct sunlight. All plastic materials will naturally deteriorate when exposed to sunlight, and your swimming area is one of the harshest environments for any plastic product: sunlight, chlorine and heat will all take their toll on the UV stabilizing system in your pool cover. So take care of your pool cover and it will have a longer life.
