Is it time to replace the pool cover?
Having a swimming pool, means you should have a cover for it. Using a pool cover diligently will offer many benefits for your pool and here are a few to consider.
- Keeping the pool free from airborne contaminants
- Acting as an additional layer of safety to keep children and pets from falling into the water
- Traps in any heat
- Slows the rate of evaporation which may mean you can use fewer chemicals to keep the water clean
- Keeps dirt and debris from the water and from being trapped in the filter
Consider a pool cover an investment in the pool and the money you’ve spent. A pool cover shouldn’t be an afterthought or an accessory. A pool cover, truly is a necessity to protect your pool, save money on pool chemical usage and to help cut back on evaporation.
If you have children or pets in the house, a pool safety cover will add an additional layer of protection between them and the water. Decide what type of cover you want, talk with us to assure you have the correct size and then determine whether you need a pool cover lifter device to aid in its use.
