What customers say
This solar blanket excels at its primary function, delivering significant heat retention and reducing water evaporation, which customers confirm lowers heating costs. The 12-mil thickness offers superior insulation and is easy to customize for various spa sizes. However, the core concern centers on long-term durability. Many users report the material degrades too quickly, often showing brittleness and delamination within eighteen months. While it provides excellent energy savings initially, this short lifespan diminishes the overall value perception for those expecting multiyear performance. It is a highly effective short term energy saver, but buyers should anticipate limited longevity.
