Re: Pool covers (solar)
Go for it! My own experience with auto-covers seems to be that darker is better for heat generation. Auto-covers don't let the light pass through so not good for comparison there.
However, I went from a light color to dark (same thickness) and subjectively, there seemed to be a greater heat increase with the dark.
