Hi,
On various websites I read that 70% of the heat loss of a pool is by evaporation, whereas up to 85% of the solar radiation can heat an uncovered pool.
We use 22mm thick black color EPE panels to cover our pool.
On a sunny day, is it better to cover the pool or to leave it uncovered ?
In other words ;
Is the reduction of heat gain (because of the EPE panel cover) compensated by the reduced heat loss by evaporation ?
Thanks for your help
Chris
