WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AN AUTOMATIC POOL COVER?

Pool owners can see dramatic savings in the operating costs of their pool in the following areas by adding an automatic cover to their pool.

  • Pool Heating: Because an automatic safety cover is so easy to use, your pool can be covered when it’s not in use. Covering your pool will dramatically reduce water evaporation and heat loss by up to 70%.
  • Pool Chemicals: Automatic covers help keep the pool chemistry in balance. Pools loose chemicals through water evaporation. An automatic cover seals the water in, reducing chemical loss by up to 70%. 
  • Electricity: Automatic covers reduce the amount of energy needed for the filtration of the pool. Electricity is required to run the pool pump and filter. An automatic cover keeps dirt and debris out of your pool, saving up to 50% on electricity because the filtration equipment can be operated much less frequently.
  • Water: An automatic cover reduces water evaporation by up to 90%. Keeping the pool covered when not in use eliminates the need to constantly add water to the pool.

There is no better way to conserve important natural resources than an automatic pool cover. It’s like a roof for the pool that helps keep the undesirable things like dirt, leaves and insects out while keeping in the good things, like heat, pool chemicals and water.

HOW LONG DOES IT TYPICALLY TAKE TO BUILD A POOL?

Fiberglass pool by Thursday Pools generally take three weeks to complete from the day we break ground. A Vinyl Liner pool generally takes four to eight weeks to complete from the day we break ground.

HOW OFTEN DO I NEED TO REPLACE A VINYL LINER?

The lifespan of a vinyl liner is greatly impacted by water chemistry.  It is important to keep the water balanced throughout the year to extend the life of a liner.  Generally, a vinyl liner will last 8-12 years before it needs to be replaced.
