Common Mistakes Homeowners Make When Swimming Pool Shopping

Choosing the right swimming pool, along with the right installers, can be a challenge. There are many factors to consider and you want to know you are getting the highest quality for your dollars. Avoid these mistakes and the process of gaining a new relaxing space in your home will be something to enjoy, not dread.

1) Don't over think the process - Trust an expert, like Adams Swimming Pool, Inc. with the details. You will always be in charge of what you want in your swimming pool, but an established, respected quality installation team will create exactly what you envision.

2) Each pool is unique - If your neighbor or brother has an in ground swimming pool you like, remember, your pool will be similar, but not the same. Unlike swing sets and patio furniture, no two swimming pools are the same. The placement of your swimming pool, the landscape and soil condition, as well as the quality of the materials, will all have a large impact on your swimming pool.

3) What you see is only a part of the pool - You'll need to keep in mind there are many facets to a backyard swimming pool and you don't see all of them. Costs cover pumps, valves, pool chlorination, prepping the grounds, and many other unseen processes. Be sure to factor into your monthly and annual budget, the cost of a swimming pool repair for the unexpected costs of owning a swimming pool.

4) Not asking enough questions - Before your Nashville swimming pool contractor comes to your home, write down as many questions as you can think of. Never be afraid to ask questions. The purchase of a swimming pool is a large financial investment.

4 Ways to Keep the Heat in Your Swimming Pool

As the summer ends and the autumn begin, many homeowners would like to keep their pool open into the cooler weather. This must involve heating the water for maximum enjoyment. Contact Adams Swimming Pool for help extending a summer favorite into the end of the year and beyond.

Pool Covers - Contact a swimming pool service, Nashville, TN and the first thing they suggest is a pool cover. It is the most economical and efficient solution to heating an in ground pool. Choose from mesh, reinforced vinyl, and other materials for ease retention heat and comfort. A winter safety cover will also reduce your utility bill, prevent unauthorized visitors in your pool, and keep the pool clean.

Solar Blankets - Solar blankets perform two great services for your pool. First, they heat the pool through the air-filled bubbles using the sun. Expect about 10-15 degrees warmer water, depending on the sun exposure and outdoor temperature. Next, solar pool blankets keep the water from evaporating.

Solar Sun Rings - These are similar to a solar blanket, yet heavy duty and stronger. You can purchase this item through a swimming pool repair company. The rings are smaller than a large solar blanket making them easier to navigate on and off the pool. They each have magnets so you can connect them for more coverage.

HeatSaver (Liquid Solar Blanket) - This is a newer invention by a Canadian company and is an amazing product. Using a special mixture containing isopropyl alcohol, the solar blanket is virtually invisible. The solution floats to the surface, creating a layer of microscopic heat, which is only a few particles thick.
