It seems like everything is automated these days, making it easier to manage your life and home. So it makes perfect sense to apply this new technology to your pool maintenance. Pool automation allows you to manage the care for your pool through a remote device, even if you are not at home. Not only does this make it easier, there are some very tangible benefits to investing in this technology. Here are some of the benefits of using pool automation:

  • Sanitization. Through pool automation, you can monitor the PH balance of your pool simply, ensuring your pool keeps a safe level of sanitization. This can save on chemicals by helping you more efficiently manage the PH balance and sanitation levels.
  • Temperature. Control your pool and spa’s water temps easily, cutting back on energy use. You can turn heat on and off as needed, even when you are away from home.
  • Features. Even your pool features can be automated. Set your waterfall or lights to turn on and off at specific times to save on energy. Even your pool cover can be set to close at certain times to protect your pool.

With pool automation, you can save time, money and energy off your pool maintenance. Plus, you get the convenience of having everything right at your fingertips. Some systems come with their own control panel while others can be managed directly through your computer or smartphone.

Talk to your local pool service company about upgrading your pool to an automation system. It is time to make caring for your pool easier and more efficient with the use of pool automation.

5 Reasons to Renovate Your Pool This Summer

Comments Off on 5 Reasons to Renovate Your Pool This Summer

Does your pool look old, dingy and outdated? It may be time to plan a pool renovation. Pool surfaces become worn, stained and faded over time and need to be resurfaced to protect your pool and improve the aesthetics. If you are hesitant to spend the money into a pool renovation, here are five excellent reasons why it is worth the investment.

  1. Protect your pool. If the surface on your pool is ten or more years older, it most likely needs resurfacing. The surface of your pool helps protect the shell or cement underneath for a longer lifespan.
  2. Rejuvenate an old pool. Nothing can transform a pool quicker than resurfacing. Adding a new surface that is brilliant in color or texture can make an old ugly pool look new and beautiful again.
  3. A home oasis. You deserve an outdoor area that is your oasis from the world. Adding a spa or waterfall feature to your pool can help create your own little paradise in your backyard.
  4. Value. Your pool can add or subtract from your home’s value. An old pool can lessen the value of your home when it comes time to sell. Keep your pool looking great to maintain a higher value for your home.
  5. A new surface for your pool can help reduce slips and falls. You can also enhance other aspects of your pool through renovation to increase the functionality.

Keep your pool looking great with a remodel this summer. Talk to your local pool renovation specialists to find out about all the options available to give your pool a makeover.

Where Is Your Pool Leak?

Comments Off on Where Is Your Pool Leak?

Are you concerned that you have a pool leak? If you have done the tried-and-true bucket test and found you are losing water, you know you have a problem. But how severe is it and where is the leak? When it comes to pool leaks, there are a plethora of areas that can be to blame. Here are a few of the places where you could be leaking water from your pool:

  • Fittings and drains. One of the most common places for pool leaks is around any type of fitting or drain. Anywhere a seam is needed between the pool cement or shell can lose its seal and begin to leak. Lights, drains, skimmers and other fittings are always a good place to start looking for leaks.
  • Plumbing. Although less common, your plumbing to the pool could be the source of your leak. Unfortunately, many of these pipes are often underground, but you can inspect the pipes and plumbing you do have access to.
  • Shell or pool walls. If there is a crack in your pool that is leaking water, you have a major issue on your hands. This can be indicative of bigger problems with your pool and needs professional attention immediately.

Pool leaks will not get better without a repair, so finding the source is the first step in fixing the issue. Most pool owners will have a hard time finding a pool leak on their own, much less fixing it. If you have a leak, call your local pool service that offers leak repairs. They can quickly find the source of the leak and give you repair options to get it stopped.
