A swimming pool is great for cooling down and having fun, but it can also run up your bills! Get smart about water with these tips from our Coastal Hardware team.
1. Cover your pool
You can save up to 95% of water lost through evaporation when you use a pool cover. A covered pool also reduces the growth of algae, saving you the time and money needed to get rid of algae.
2. Check for leaks
Fix water leaks to prevent unnecessary water loss.
3. Top up your pool water level
Your pool pump and filter cannot operate properly if the water level is too low. Increase the water level to avoid this problem.
4. Turn off water features
If you have a water feature in your swimming pool, turn it off to reduce water evaporation.
5. Regular backwashes
Backwash and rinse your swimming pool filter every 2 weeks or when your automatic pool cleaner becomes sluggish.
6. Regular maintenance
A regular pool care routine helps prevent problems that could cost you more.
7. Manage your pets
Pets are fun to swim with, but you will need to do extra filtration and backwashing afterwards. To save time and money, try not to allow your pets into the swimming pool.
