    It's a fairly new product from Smartpool.

    It works along the same lines as any other liquid solar blanket. As long as you have direct sunlight to the pool for several hours per day, then it should help increase your temperature a few degrees.

    Do you have a link to a retailer? I'm trying out the Solar Fish and they seem to be helping on heat loss over night to some extent. I have concerns about the kids disturbing the fish which just sit in the pool so this might be a better alternative.
