A pool cover is one of the most practical accessories you can buy for your pool. Not only will it help keep maintenance down by preventing twigs, leaves, dirt, and other wind-blown debris from your pool, but a pool cover is also the single most effective way of reducing pool heating costs.
In addition to approved pool fencing and door alarms, a well-maintained swimming pool cover from poolenclosures-poolcovers.co.uk/automatic-pool-covers adds another layer of safety in preventing drowning.
Here are the top nine reasons you should install a pool cover:
Keeps debris and snowmelt out of a pool
Cuts down on chemical use
Eases the load of the pump and filter
Saves water by reducing evaporation; good for drought-prone or hot regions
Saves energy by reducing heat loss from evaporation and heat radiation
Saves money by lowering costs of heating and energy
Saves you or your pool cleaner time; less mess means the job goes more quickly
Eliminates the need for a dehumidification system
Acts as a protective barrier if it’s a properly installed solid safety cover; like a horizontal fence or wall
Not convinced? Calculate the savings you can accrue with the pool cover savings calculator, which helps estimate the cost and savings of a pool cover for heat and chemicals, with or without a cover, for the city or region in which you live.
Now that we’re on the same page, determining the type of pool cover is up to you. Swimming pool covers can come in multiple covers to match your decor or decking and can be tailored to fit custom-shaped pools.
