4 Tips For Making Your Swimming Pool More Environmentally Friendly

Is your swimming pool environmentally friendly? HFS Financial knows the more eco-friendly you make your swimming pool, the more money you save! It is a win-win situation that every pool owner should take advantage of. Finding some simple steps to get you started is more accessible than you think. If you are considering building a pool, doing these things from the start will save you money in the long term. HFS Financial is here to help you finance all of your grand swimming pool dreams.

Use Your Swimming Pool Cover to Keep Your Pool More Environmentally Friendly

You may be surprised at how much pool water is lost due to evaporation. Because a pool has a large surface area, there is a greater opportunity for the sun to “steal” your water. You will need to refill your swimming pool more frequently if you leave your swimming pool uncovered. The more water you use, the more significant your impact on the environment. 

You will also need to use your swimming pool heater more if you leave your pool uncovered. Heat can escape more rapidly with the cover off. A pool cover will keep your pool more environmentally friendly. You can even include this in your pool loan if you add one when building.

Fix All Leaks to Keep Your Pool More Environmentally Friendly

Even a tiny leak can cause you to lose gallons of water over time. If you spot a leak in your swimming pool, fix it as soon as possible. A minor leak can grow, and then you will have more significant problems. Hundreds or thousands of gallons of water can be lost in short amounts of time — meaning more expenses for you in both water replacement and repairs. Watching closely for leaks and maintaining your pool will help to keep your pool more environmentally friendly.

Use LED Pool Lights for Pool Lighting

Does your swimming pool lighting utilize traditional incandescent bulbs? Another way to make your swimming pool area more environmentally friendly is to transition to LED bulbs. They will help you save money on your energy bills since a fraction of the electricity is needed to power them. Using less power makes them better for the environment. This is one of the easiest upgrades you can make.

Use Solar Power or a Heat Pump and Make the Pool More Environmentally Friendly

Finally, using a solar-powered pool heater or heat pump will make your pool more environmentally friendly by saving even more energy. We all know using the sun’s power and ambient air is an excellent alternative to other fuel sources. Utilizing these for your pool will save you money while making your pool more environmentally friendly!
