Is this jus a reel and not a cover as well? Do you have to get the solar pool cover separate?

It is the reel only. Works very well - but not on pool with fence mounted to it. :-(

This is just the reel. You so need to purchase a solar cover. I would recommend a 12 mil cover or thicker. A

Yes, this is just the roller. you need to buy a solar cover separately. i believe we paid around $100 for our cover give or take a little and we have a 24 foot round pool.

You need to purchase a solar cover separately , this is the reel system only. It has the reel, long pole type system that holds the cover, and other parts and pieces. Seems hard to figure out and mine is not installed yet and it was purchased last summer!

The cover is meant to hold heat in. You can't expect it to effectively heat your pool although with it in place on a sunny day it will add some heat if the circulating pump is activated.

The storage bin is removable. You have to remove it in order to attach the hose to the reel.

Basically yes, but it's a very strong, durable material. My issue with it was just that my pool cover is large so the effort ended up being too great to reel it all in.

I used it for one season and then got rid of it because it was a pain to use and parts would break often. May be easier with a rectangle pool, mine was odd shaped, which makes finding a cover difficult. Now I made my own solar rings out of a solar cover and tubing....much easier to use.

Your solar cover should be fine. We have a 12 mil for a 16x28 pool. My 8 year old can roll it up and 12 yr old helps me lift it completely off when needed. If to a second post, my 8 yr old can do this too. Only recommendation is to buy a 'clip' or two for each end as the liner likes to unroll both at the same time. The aluminum rod is light weight but seems very strong.

I just went outside and looked at my pool. It still has the cover on it. I dont recommend it. The 16 foot pool might have less poles to anchor the cover to. It's not going to get as tight when you tighten it with the trap

Hi Barry, This pool does come with a cover, however it does not come with a wall skimmer, this model pool stopped doing that the year before last. Thank you Customer Care Splash Super Center

No. You'd need a solar cover for that. This just keeps leaves and debris out of the pool. My water stays nice and cool, even though the pool sits out in the Florida sun

no you do not need a reel, however the underside of the cover will not last as long...I have found you get about half the life of a cover if you drag it off and pile it then re-use it

It's pretty heavy so I recommend a commercial grade reel. http://www.amazon.com/Commercial-Grade-In-Ground-Pool-Solar/dp/B003K1AESO/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1400548015&sr=8-10&keywords=solar+blanket+reel

I am noy sure, I do not use a solar blanket on my pool. PoolSkim removes surface dirt so the water needs to move fteely for PoolSkim to work. The must be operational and cirulating the water. Hope this helps.

You mean "solar" as in to heat the pool, above the pool ? Because my pool also came with the top cover for when not in use and mine stays plenty warm just from the sun. I live in California and I am actually thinking about putting a canopy over mine so it won't get so hot.

It comes with a light weight cover. I would seeno problem having it by a pool, but would cover it to prevent build up if water

I found that I can roll the cover up myself without over-stressing the reel but my solar cover will wrinkle and roll up poorly unless I start rolling on one side, then walk around the pool and finish on the other to pull the cover tight as it rolls up. This reel is the best one I've used. When I put it away this year, I also found that it's best to lower it all the way. That way, I could roll it from the pool to the garage much easier.

Yes it is but it didn't work on my pool, I have the above ground pool that has the metal poles on top that connect and the liner goes through the poles and holds it all together, this liner that I purchased does not have the holes to stick the poles through, it is a different type. I still have the liner if you are interested because I never returned it
