    Your video is more helpful than the official GLI. Thanks a lot!

    The instructions that came with the kit were super cryptic. Thanks for helping me understand the basic process.

    I got one that fits on the end of my pool. I love it.

    This is the concept I was looking to find, however my plan is to put it on the end of the pool. I do have a question...What made you decide to go with the 4" vs the 3"?

      Because I got the 3 inch and it was not sturdy enough to support the weight of this heavy cover. So I had it sent back

    I have a few questions on the solar cover install.. I have a 24 foot round above ground pool. I'd like to install it on some wood beams like you have in the video. How far off the pool should it be and how high above the railing should it be? Thank you.

    • @myboringchannel

      I would have to measure mine. I think I put mine a little bit too high.

    I ordered the 3 inch tube. installing it this week on my 18x32 ft pool. hopefully the 3 inch is strong enough so it doesnt bow with the weight of the cover. ugh :(

    I was a little concerned about the mixed reviews, but I used it last year and hooked it up again this year and it was great ruclips.net/user/postUgkx-izdrK3eF-HMvjzeBOxToD6Fx-4ulJUh . I couldn't get my 10' Intex pool above 76 degrees the year prior and last year I got it to 90 and had to put ice in it. This worked so well! I have just 1 mat hooked up to a 1,000 GPH Intex pump and it makes a significant reduction in the flow rate coming back into the pool, but that is to be expected with how far the water has to travel through the mat.

    • @myboringchannel

      My water is significantly warmer with the cover. Haven't tracked it, but it's a VERY noticeable difference.

      Bubble side should always be facing the water. That is how it's made to heat up correctly

      Go5 mine on sale for $299 this week. Making my own portable side rails so I can actually move the cover reel it'll be out of wheels
