Elevate Your Swim Season: Essential Pool Upgrades

As the seasons transition and temperatures warm, pool owners might think it’ll be easy work opening up the pool for the swim season. However, the offseason is the perfect opportunity to upgrade essential pool equipment without disrupting your summer enjoyment. Not only can these upgrades protect your investment, but they can also lead to a more enjoyable, efficient, and safe swim season next year.

Pool Equipment Upgrades for Efficiency

Reducing your pool’s energy consumption is not just good for the environment—it’s good for your wallet, too.

• Energy-efficient pumps and filters. Replacing outdated pumps and filters with energy-efficient models can significantly reduce your pool’s energy usage.
• Variable speed pumps. These pumps automatically adjust their speed to meet different pool operation needs, conserving energy and saving you money in the long run.
• LED pool lights. Switching to LED lighting is an easy upgrade that offers greater energy efficiency, brighter lighting, and longer bulb life than traditional pool lights.

Upgrades for Water Quality

Maintaining crystal-clear water doesn’t have to be a full-time job. You can automate much of the work and ensure consistent water quality with the right equipment.

• Saltwater chlorine generator. This device converts salt into chlorine, ensuring a steady distribution of chlorine and reducing the need for manual chemical balancing.
• UV sanitizer. A UV sanitizer uses ultraviolet light to kill algae, bacteria, and other pathogens, reducing the amount of chlorine necessary to keep the pool clean.
• Robotic pool cleaners. These convenient devices automate the pool cleaning process, ensuring thorough scrubbing and filtration without elbow grease.

Safety Upgrades

Your pool should be a haven of relaxation and fun, not a source of worry. Upgrading your pool’s safety features during the offseason creates peace of mind and a secure environment.

• Pool covers. Robust, secure pool covers can prevent debris from entering your pool while serving as a safety barrier to protect children and pets.
• Pool alarms. Install alarms that notify you if someone enters the pool area or the water surface is disturbed.
• Safety fences. A sturdy and reliable fence around your pool area can prevent accidents and unauthorized access to the pool.

Maintenance and Convenience Upgrades

Spend more time enjoying your pool and less time working on it by incorporating technology designed for your convenience and the pool’s longevity.

• Automatic pool covers. With the push of a button, these covers can protect your pool from debris and reduce evaporation.
• Smart pool controllers. Manage your pool conditions from anywhere using your phone, thanks to WiFi-enabled pool controllers.
• Pool automation systems. Integrate filtration, lighting, heating, and sanitizing into one controllable, automated system.
