Summer is fast approaching and many homeowners are taking the opportunity to really enjoy their swimming pools. A swimming pool is a fantastic way to unwind and relax with the whole family, yet often it demands a lot of maintenance which can be off putting in itself. If you enjoy having a swimming pool but not the maintenance and safety concerns that come with it, then you should definitely consider swimming pool covers. To give you a clear understanding of the advantages a swimming pool cover could provide, we have teamed together here at The Swimming Pool Store to offer you some much needed clarity on the benefits.

Reduce Your Swimming Pool Maintenance

Often, after a long and arduous winter the joy of diving into the cool crisp water of your swimming pool in summer is marred by the fact that there is floating debris. Regardless of whether the debris is made up of leaves, branches, mud or dead insects, their presence can be unpleasant and off-putting. Yet, a swimming pool cover eliminates the hassle of swimming pool maintenance Oxford, leaving you more time to sit back and enjoy your summer.

Increase Pool Side Safety

For many of us, particularly those with children, pool side safety is a major concern. The risk a swimming pool presents is very real and certain precautions should be taken to keep these risks to a minimum. Aside from pool side fencing we would recommend swimming pool covers to all of our customers as a way to increase safety. We have two types of automatic swimming pool covers here at the Swimming Pool Store, the Automatic Safety Cover and the Slatted Automatic Cover. Both of our covers offer effective safety, as both can withstand the weight of a child or pet on its surface.

At The Swimming Pool Store we offer invaluable advice regarding all aspects of swimming pools and hot tubs. As such, we have various equipment available for you to purchase, including swimming pool covers.

Those that are fortunate enough to own an outdoor swimming pool will understand the benefits it can bring; from a place to unwind after a stressful day at work, through to somewhere to relax and entertain during the summer months. Unfortunately, the time an outdoor pool can be used for in the UK is often determined by the weather. However, if you want to get the most out of your pool all year round then it’s important you install one of the above ground swimming pool heaters available from us here at The Swimming Pool Store.

As with choosing air conditioning for your home, the right swimming pool heater will depend on how often you want to use the pool and the budget you have available. Fortunately, our knowledgeable team are on hand to offer impartial yet honest advice about which swimming pool heater would be best for your needs.

The three main forms of heaters we offer are:

Electric Heaters:

Electric heaters are often the heater of choice for many pool owners as they’re extremely cost effective meaning that you won’t see a large increase in your utility bills. It’s also often seen as a more environmentally friendly option compared to other heaters.

Although they’re cost effective, electric heaters can often take longer to heat the pool than other heating options.

Heat Pumps:

Heat pumps also work using a small amount of electricity which enables them to transfer heat from the air into the water, providing a comfortable water temperature. A heat pump is cost-effective, easy to operate and requires little maintenance due to its durability.

Gas Heaters:

Our gas heaters come in two options – natural or propane. Both of these options are seen as a more cost-effective solution compared to electric heaters, as they’re designed to quickly and effectively heat your pool to an acceptable temperature, are easy to use and require minimal maintenance.

Each of these swimming pool heaters offer a variety of benefits and choosing the one which will work best with your swimming habits could see you increase your swimming season by up to 25%. For more information surrounding the heaters available, feel free to call us on 01494 483652.
