The Ultimate Guide to Pool Covers

Invest in Peace of Mind and Savings: The Ultimate Guide to Pool Covers

At Hawaiian Pool Builders, we know your pool is an investment, and protecting it is a priority. That’s why we strongly recommend using a pool cover, a versatile tool that offers a multitude of benefits throughout the year.

Peace of Mind: Safety Comes First

A high-quality pool cover acts as a crucial safety barrier, especially for families with young children or pets. Solid safety covers, typically made from a strong mesh material, prevent accidental falls into the pool when it’s not in use. These covers are secured with a system of hooks or springs, ensuring they remain firmly in place.

Savings All Around: Energy, Water, and Chemicals

Pool covers are money-savers in several ways. For heated pools, a cover acts like a blanket, trapping heat and reducing energy costs associated with maintaining comfortable water temperatures. By minimizing evaporation, covers also help conserve water, reducing the need for frequent refilling and minimizing chemical top-offs. Less water evaporation means a more stable chemical balance, saving you time and money on pool maintenance.

Keeping Your Pool Clean and Pristine

Pool covers act as a shield against leaves, twigs, dust, and other debris. This not only reduces the amount of time you spend cleaning your pool but also helps prevent the growth of algae. A clean pool is not only aesthetically pleasing but also provides a healthier swimming environment.

Choosing the Perfect Cover for Your Needs

There are various pool covers available, each designed for a specific purpose:

  • Safety Covers: Prioritize safety with a strong mesh cover that prevents accidental falls.
  • Winter Covers: Protect your pool during the off-season with a durable cover made of polypropylene that can withstand harsh winter elements.
  • Leaf Nets: These lightweight mesh nets sit on top of your winter cover, catching leaves and debris before they reach the pool itself.
  • Solar Covers: Made from a special bubble wrap-like material, solar covers not only keep debris out and minimize evaporation but also trap heat from the sun, providing additional “free” heat for your pool.

Making Pool Cover Use a Breeze

While manually applying and removing a pool cover can be a chore, consider investing in an automatic cover reel system. This convenient option allows you to effortlessly cover and uncover your pool at the touch of a button.

The Benefits of Consistent Cover Use

We recommend using your pool cover whenever you’re not swimming, even for short periods. While taking the cover on and off may seem like a hassle, it becomes a good habit to form, maximizing the cover’s benefits and extending the lifespan of your pool.

Invest in Your Pool’s Wellbeing

Pool covers are more than just a seasonal accessory; they’re an investment in the safety, cleanliness, and longevity of your pool. They can save you money on energy bills, water usage, and pool chemicals. With a variety of cover options available, you can find the perfect solution for your needs and style.
