Tipton Pool builders, serving Knoxville, TN explain pool cover benefits
Both above ground and in-ground swimming pools benefit from the diligent use of swimming pool covers. They perform myriad functions and should be part of the budget when you make the decision to invest in a swimming pool — they should not be an afterthought. The swimming pool contractors from Tipton Pools explain to their clients the reasons for having a cover and help them determine the best cover for their unique family needs.
They share here the reasons why a pool cover is worth the investment:
- They trap the heat. If your pool is exposed to sun all day, putting on a cover before the sun goes down can trap the heated water and make it more pleasant for swimming.
- A cover will slow down the amount of water lost to evaporation.
- Another benefit to not losing to much water to evaporation is that your pool contractor may need to use fewer chemicals because of the lack of water loss.
- You or your contractor may have to spend less time cleaning the pool. Why? Because a cover will keep dirt and debris from getting into the water and this means you won’t be out there with a leaf skimmer or having to empty the skimmer basket of fallen debris.
- The correct cover can act as an additional layer of protection to keep children and pets from falling into the water if they happen to breach the fence or other security measures you have in place.
