Part # SADDLE5

Product Description


The First Easy-Handling Solar Blanket Storage System 

The Solar Saddle is a unique and simple storage solution for above ground pool solar blankets.  Tired of that soggy solar blanket lying on the deck or the ground?  Or maybe you've been struggling to roll it up on a solar reel.  With the Solar Saddle, you can quickly fold up your blanket and store it right on the side of the pool, within easy reach for the next use.

Easy to use, simple to install, and affordable!

The Solar Saddle features a set of five flexible mounting brackets that attach to the top rail of your pool, giving you the freedom to install the saddle exactly where you want it. Easy to position out of sight on the back side of the pool.  Once installed, you simply fold up your solar cover and rest it in the brackets.  This folding method keeps your pool much cleaner than solar reels which allow collected debris from the top of the blanket to dump right into the pool.  The Solar Saddle turns removing and replacing a solar cover into a one-person job whether you are in or out of the pool.  Includes five mounting brackets and all hardware.

Features

  • Easy installation takes about 30 minutes
  • Strong yet lightweight
  • Able to hold the largest size above ground pool solar covers
  • Makes it easy for one person to quickly remove cover
  • Helps to keep your pool cleaner
  • Prolongs the life of your solar blanket
  • Much more affordable than a bulky solar reel

Typical installation setup of Solar Saddle onto top rail of above ground pool

Solar Saddle hardware includes:

  • 5 Mounting Brackets
  • 20 Stainless Steel Bolts
  • 5 Hex nuts
  • 5 Mounting Pins

Installation requires two holes per bracket to be drilled in the top rail of the pool. Each bracket extends out from the side of your pool 18" and down the edge of the pool 19".

Will this work on an Intex Brand 2 Metal Frame pool?
 Reply

Unfortunately this will not work with the Intex pools. These have to be attached to a top rail.

Are there different instructions for a larger pool? If not, how much farther apart should the saddles be?
 Reply

A  Answered on 5/4/2013 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Unfortunately the manufacturer doesn't have any other instructions for a larger pool. Per the manufacturer: Note: If your pool is 28 foot or larger you just fold the solar cover back on top of the outside saddles, or you may want to purchase single saddle kits that are readily available.If the brackets are spaced farther apart than the recommended distance, the weight distribution will become uneven and may cause premature failure.

This product was very easy to install for our 30 foot above ground pool. It worked great all summer to keep our solar cover clean and off the grass. The solar saddle made taking the solar cover off and on so much easier than any other product we have tried!

We installed the Solar Saddle brackets with the stainless hardware provided by drilled holes in the top rail of the pool and putting in the hardware to hold the brackets that hang on the side of the pool.
