Not only do Solar Sun Rings keep your pool a toasty temperature, they are much safer than the average pool cover. The circular shape leaves open space as opposed to a solid cover that someone could become trapped beneath or tangled in. The discs are also held in place with magnets on the sides of each one, connecting them as if they were one cover. In the event of an accidental fall the magnets would separate.
Another added benefit to using Solar Sun Rings is water and pool chemicals cannot evaporate through the layers of heavy weight vinyl. This means that you not only make use of the suns natural energy, but you also conserve water and save money on treatment chemicals. Better for the environment and for your wallet.
These have actually turned out to be a better heating source than the traditional pool heat pump. More huge savings in comparison to running the old heat pump, which ran all day every day to keep the pool a nice warm temperature for the kids to swim in. Solar Sun Rings actually kept the pool about 6 degrees warmer on average. An amazing difference from such a small change in how we take care of the swimming pool.
When the heat of the summer is over and your pool is empty your Sun Rings can be stacked for easy storage, taking up much less room than your average pool cover. Take care not to stack them in direct sunlight, because they will end up permanently stuck together.
My only complaint with the is that inflating the rings can be a little tricky. I know they look flat in the pictures, right? They do require some inflation before use. The inner grid gets inflated slightly, and the outer ring needs to be inflated until its firm and holds shape. Inflating the first few was a bit frustrating, but after a little practice the process goes quickly.
