How does the Coverfree work in the swimming pool?
Reply
Coverfree creates an invisible barrier that helps retain heat in the swimming pool similar to a solar blanket. Surface tension allows it to remain in place or reform during swimming.

Pool is no longer used. No longer heated. Interested in saving water. How often should I add Cover Free to the pool. Or do you recommed a blanket?

I have a salt pool here in SW Florida. We can use our pool all year round so it's important to stop rapid evaporation in our dry season. It's also important to stop heat loss at night. We do get some cold nights.
I started using Natural Chemistry Cover Free a few years ago. I do not use it during the warm rainy months, no need, so I start putting in the pool around the end of October. I've found it works to stop the "steaming" loss of pool water and heat. You put it in while it's steaming and as it spreads you can watch that steaming stop. Love the product. Note it works better as the weeks progress after the initial weekly application.

Natural Chemistry Cover Free appears to aid in mitigating water evaporation from swimming pools. It won't eliminate it totally but it will slow the process down a bit. The cost of the 1 gallon container from INYO is very reasonable. You'll have to determine for yourself if the added cost to your water bill for re-filling your pool is more than the cost of this product. If so, it's definitely worth it. A capful or two once a week is all it takes. I add it directly to the skimmer basket but it can be spread on the surface of the pool. If your evaporation appears excessive, you may want to do a bucket test to determine if you have a leak. Skimmer areas are a good first place to check.

(5 out of 5 stars) Great liquid solar cover
Reviewed By: Pam C. from Oxford, MI ()
We used this product last summer for the first time and now would not go back to a regular solar cover again. Using this product reduces heat loss as well as water evaporation, which saves on chlorine as well. Without the need for the regular solar cover our pool stayed far cleaner than any previous season. I would highly recommend this product.

(1 out of 5 stars) Natural Chemistry Cover Free is NOT for Arizona
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
I am located in Southern Arizona. Evaporation is a major cost here as we can lose one to one and a half inches daily. I inquired InyoPools support team for a recommendation to an alternative to solar blanket to keep from losing so much water due to evaporation. The solar blankets definitely reduce the evaporation but in turn heat the water to unusable temps. The support team recommended Natural Chemistry Cover Free. I have used it as recommended for two weeks at this point but have not realized any reduction in water loss. I am sure it is due to the extreme heat and lack of humidity here in Southern Arizona. I am not complaining about the product simply warning anyone else that it is not effective for evaporation in Arizona.

(2 out of 5 stars) Not For Indoor Pools
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
I have an indoor pool with a cartridge type filter system and tried the product for 4 weeks and saw no change in evap or temp stability. I also had the head pressure go up on my pump system and had to hose off to get the pump pressure back to normal. My conclusion was this is not for indoor pools or Cartridge Filter systems. Looks like I wasted $65.00, Allen

(5 out of 5 stars) Stops Water and Heat Loss
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
This product stops loss of water due to evaporation. He keeps the temperature of the water up over the cold nights. We got down to the 40's last night here in SW Florida and my pool only dropped about 3 or 4 degrees.

This product is about one quarter the cost of a similar product at my local pool supplier. I just started using it and can not attest for it effectiveness but it appears to be doing the job.

So far so good. It has been really rainy lately so not a huge warm-up yet but it doesn't seem to be losing much heat overnight.
