Protect Your Swimming Pool Cover From Winter
A swimming pool consumes a lot of energy and adds to your utility bills and using a pool cover can help save you money and energy. Water is lost from your pool in many ways, but the largest loss is through evaporation; a cover slows evaporation. If you heat your pool water and don’t use a pool cover you lose both heat and water.
Covering the pool when it’s not in use lets you reduce energy keeping the pool at a swim-friendly temperature. Proper pool cover use could net you 50% on heating bills.
Pool cover types:
- Low tech large, thick plastic sheet. It’s not the best option because it’s not easy to put on, take off or store. In a pinch you could use one but for the long term, it’s not the best choice.
- Solar covers which are easy to put on and take off and help trap the heat from the sun. They don’t provide a safety layer
- Safety covers are ideal for keeping children and pets from falling in.
