What to do with solar cover

[tenax]

ps- i took a look at the cover and like the idea of it being completely enclosed with it, but i have exactly that plastic stand and i'd be concerned about the ends being open..i guess i could put a hefty bag around each end..maybe cheaper to buy a tarp, though

roll it up and put it in a SPACE BAG

well, i'm going low tech but i think it will be ok..picked up a industrial duty painting plastic sheet..10 ft x 25 ft..more than long enough to fold back under and put bungies on..i don't see why it wouldn't work..not as high tech as a bag..but 10 dollars versus 60 and shipping..i've spent a lot of money on stuff this year and i'm tired of it (this year, anyhow)

I am thinking of the same thing, with bungies, plus covering each of my ends with contractor size garbage bags, sealed with duct tape. My Horizon HV-2000 reel can't come apart and I have nowhere to store it other than outside.

Thanks for all the help- all season- does anyone know if you can leave your solar cover under the winter cover? I was looking at a KEEPER KLEEN and it seems like the same thing. Thanks

The Keeper Kleen is simply a black solar cover yes. We used one for the first time last winter, and it seemed perfectly fine when we opened the pool. I really have no idea how many years we'll get out of it.
