Conclusion: Solar Covers do really work! Both to retain heat and reduce humidity, and when used on outdoor pools, they also add heat to the pool (Liquid Solar does not add heat). There’s no apparent shortcut, the larger, bulkier solar pool covers just do a better job! Even if they are a pain in the neck.
