Your pool is a wonderful luxury to enjoy, making your free time at home cool and refreshing. Whether your pool is large, small, rectangle or curved, there are optional features that make even more enjoyable to own. Here are a few cool features you may want to consider adding to your home pool.

  1. Make it as simple as possible to maintain your pool with an automation system. You can control different features, temperatures and monitor the chemical balance, all from one control panel or your smart phone. This can save you time and money off your utility costs.
  2. Ozone generator. Stop dealing with the smell and harsh effects of chlorine by upgrading to an ozone generator for your pool. Your skin, hair and swimsuit no longer need to be exposed to chlorine every time you want to enjoy your pool, giving you a more natural swimming experience.
  3. Underwater lighting. Your pool is a great place to cool off on a hot day, but it can also be the centerpiece of your outdoor space at night with underwater lighting. Create a beautiful, glowing pool with colored lights that will make the neighbors jealous.
  4. Waterscapes. Waterfalls, flowing rivers and other waterscapes can add beauty to your pool area, as well as a relaxing sound effect. Listening to the sound of moving water is a great way to unwind after a long day.

Give your pool a few upgrades that will make it easier to maintain and more enjoyable. Call your local pool remodeling company to learn more about these features and other options you can add onto your pool to improve its beauty and function.

Ozone Generators

Are you tired of that chlorine smell in your pool?  Do you wish there was a way to keep your pool sparkling clean without high levels of chlorine that leave your skin dry and bleach your bathing suits?  If so, you will be happy to hear that you can have a clean, sanitized pool with much lower chlorine levels by having an ozone generator installed.

Chlorine is an excellent pool sanitizer, but it has a few drawbacks, especially the annoying chlorine smell and its tendency to dry your skin.  Ozone generators are becoming increasingly popular ways to sanitize pools.

Ozone safely kills bacteria, viruses, mold, mildew and other contaminates in your pool water.  It is completely safe to use in your pool and leaves your water clean and fresh smelling.  Ozone generators are installed in the pools plumbing and inject ozone into the water.  They are usually put on timers to run for a few hours twice a day.

Ozone dissipates very quickly, usually within an hour or two, so it cannot completely replace chlorine.  Your pool will still need some chlorine to act as a back up to the ozone and keep mold and mildew from growing. However, since the ozone generator is doing most of the work of sanitizing your pool, the level of chlorine needed is much lower.  You should be able to use about 50% to 90% less chlorine in your pool with an ozone generator.

A good reputable pool service can help you choose an ozone generator that is properly sized for your pool.
