The color has some effect but not a whole lot. Darker covers will absorb more heat and impart it to the water it floats on. A clear cover allows solar absorption by the bottom or structure of the pool and heats the water in a similar fashion.
The huge benefit of a cover is it minimizes the wind on the surface keeping the heat in the water. This is the main benefit to a cover and will work whatever the color of it is.
You're welcome!!Putting a clear sheet of plastic over a swimming pool helps keep the water warm during dry weather. Explain.?
well, since its clear, the sun is still reflecting off the water to some extent which helps it stay warm. also, putting a surface over it prevents the water from evaporating.
-hope i answered your question for you :D
