Swimming Pool Covers Help You Save Money, Energy and Water
Have you put “get a pool cover”
at the bottom of your to-do list? Maybe you should be moving it up on your
list. There are many reasons to use a pool cover, About.com
reports in its Pool & Patio section. Here are just a few ways:
Save Energy: Pool covers hold
in the heat, so your heater uses less fuel to keep it warm. According to the U.S. Department
of Energy, savings of 50 to 70% are possible.
Conserve Water: Pool covers
reduce evaporation by 90 to 95%, so you use less water. According to the Las Vegas Valley Water District,
an uncovered pool in their region could lose 50 to 70 gallons of water per
square foot each year (that’s 10,000 – 14,000 gallons each year for a pool with
a surface area of 200 feet).
Use Fewer
Chemicals: Pool covers can reduce your chemical use by 35 to
60%.
The more you learn about pool
covers, it becomes clear that they are arguably the most multi-faceted aspect
of any poolscape. They keep debris out, water in, retain heat and can serve as
a safety measure -- preventing people from falling into the water -- plus so
much more.
With all the possibilities, it’s
easy to see why a pool cover could be the next great investment you make in
your pool.
