Why Choose an Insulated Above Ground Pool from Radiant Pools?

With the return of warm weather, lots of homeowners begin to think about installing a new pool in their backyard. Above ground pools offer a number of advantages, not the least of which being that you can get them setup very quickly. While an inground pool might not be ready in time for summer, you can easily install an above ground pool in your backyard in a short time frame.

But why might you want your above ground pool to be insulated?

Why Choose an Insulated Above Ground Pool from Radiant Pools?

First, what’s the difference between an insulated pool and a non-insulated pool? An insulated above-ground pool is a pool that has insulated walls. What this does is reduce the amount of heat loss your pool experiences.

Pool Heat Loss

During the day, the sun heats up the water in your pool. But at night, the water loses this heat. Some of it is lost directly through the air and some is lost through the walls, up to 10 degrees.

Pools owners use things like solar covers to reduce heat loss to the air, but what about the walls? This is where the insulation comes in.

Pool Insulation

An insulated above ground pool reduces heat loss through the walls because they’re filled with insulation. This allows your pool to retain more heat from the sun. So what does this mean for you?

First and foremost, it means you don’t have to use as much energy to heat your pool with a pool heater, because you’re effectively making the sun the primary heat source for the pool. According to Radiant Pools, a manufacturer of insulated above ground pools, “This will save you up to 30% on your annual swimming pool heating costs…With these energy savings, over time, a Radiant Pool will pay for itself!”

In addition, it also means that because your pool will be warmer faster, you can extend your pool season by up to 2 months. This means you’re getting even more value for your money!
