Living in Florida we get the luxury of keeping our pools open year-round. However, as the daylight hours start to dwindle and we get closer to the end of the year, the tolerable temperatures go away. Here are some easy steps to stretch out your pool season!

1.       Robot technology

Does your pool get heavy debris between service making you unwilling to use the pool? Perhaps look into getting a surface-cleaning automated robot or an automated robot for cleaning the bottom of the pool. Is your pool not equipped for this? They do offer stand-alone robots as well to get your job done.

2.       Wireless and wi-fi technology

Waiting for your pool to heat can be a hassle causing you to skip using the pool all together. Getting control of your pool through a phone or tablet gives you the power to operate your pool before you’re ready to use it.

3.       Warm your pool up

As the water cools down to unbearable temperature consider investing in a pool heater to stretch out your swimming experience by months! A few ways to heat your pool are:

·         Gas Heaters– They typically run on natural gas or propane and are the most common/fastest way to heat your pool and spa

·         Heat Pumps– These devices work by using ambient air outside to heat up your pool water.

4.       Utilize Pool lighting

Choosing a fun color or theme can maximize your pool experience. When the kids are off to school and the day hours are gone, pool lights have the potential for a nighttime pool party or a sunset private swim.

5.       Maximize Heat Retention

Using a liquid solar retainer or a solar blanket can help retain up to 70% of your swimming pool heating cost. This will prolong your swim season by prolonging your heat!
