Tipton Pool Builders, serving Knoxville, Tennessee explain what a pool enclosure is

Have you ever wanted an indoor swimming pool, but just don’t have the space for it, or the budget? If you’ve ever wondered what a swimming pool enclosure is, the swimming pool builders from Tipton Pools explain it is a structure that covers the entire pool. If you’re trying to picture it, think of a greenhouse that is protecting your pool from the elements. A swimming pool enclosure can be completed as part of a new swimming pool construction project or as a stand alone project. You will lose use of the pool while the project is going on so plan it for a time when you won’t lose a lot of the precious summer swim season.

There are many benefits of a swimming pool enclosure. Ask us for more information about them and what the potential cost could be to enclose your swimming pool.

What is a swimming pool enclosure?

Items to consider when thinking of a swimming pool enclosure:

  • It will make having access to your pool year-round a reality
  • You will still get the benefit of the heat of the sun, without being completely exposed to potentially harmful UV rays
  • Because the enclosure covers the entire pool, you are adding to the safety and security of the pool
  • Your pool maintenance and service costs may be lowered
  • If you’re not running the pool heater to keep the water warm, your utility bills may be decreased

Are there any cons? A few:

  • They are expensive
  • They take up yard space
  • It needs to be properly ventilated to prevent mold growth
