Use A Solar Cover
There are numerous benefits of using a solar cover for your above ground swimming pool. These are strong covers that are great at protecting your pool from debris, leaves, dirt and other objects that could cause damage. More importantly, solar covers are great for raising and maintaining warm water temperatures. They trap the heat your pool collects from the sun and attracts additional heat, which means much lower heating costs.
Always Keep Chemicals Balanced
As a pool owner, you know how expensive water chemicals are. To save money, check your pool’s alkalinity, pH and calcium harness levels on a regular basis. Battling your water chemistry takes more time and money than simply keeping your chemicals balanced in the first place. Read more about caring for your pool’s chemicals.
Run Your Pool Filter At Night
Running your pool filter is necessary to keeping your water clean, but it’s also one of the most expensive aspects of maintenance. To help slash your electric bills, run your filter during off-peak times. Electric companies may have slightly different peak hours based on your area’s particular use, but generally running your filter at night can help you save money.
Close Your Pool Yourself
At the end of the season, hiring a professional to close your swimming pool may seem like the easy thing to do, but it’s not budget friendly. Pool closing services can cost around $300 so why not winterize your yourself? When you winterize your pool correctly, you’ll keep it safe during the off-season and make it easier to open come summer.
Winter Check Ups
Have you ever thought about how caring your pool during the off-season can help you save repair costs once you open it in the summer? In order to keep your equipment functioning smoothly and repair costs low, it’s important to check on it even when closed. Be sure your winter pool cover is clear of branches, water and other objects that could damage the cover or cause your walls to cave in. In addition be sure to perform a mid-winter check up, where you look over your filter, pump, water, cover and any other equipment for possible damages.
