Simple Tips to Reduce the Costs of Your Pool & Spa
By Karachiwala Shamoil
Reducing the energy your pool and spa use is not only wise for your wallet; it's also good for the environment. There are simple things you can do to make your pool and spa more energy efficient without using compromising your comfort and convenience.
78 Degrees is Safe & Efficient
According to the National Swimming Pool Institute and the American Red Cross, the most healthful swimming temperature is 78 degrees. Reduce your thermostat to maintain a constant 78 degree or lower temperature. Not only will this ensure a healthy pool, it will also help you conserve energy.
Customize For Savings
If your pool gets most of its use on weekends, lower your thermostat by at least ten degrees during the week. You can also add fences, shrubs, gazebos and cabanas to protect swimmers from winds and reduce the need for additional pool heat. Also adjust your pool filter so that it runs during off-peak hours. Also, remember to turn off your pool heater when you go on vacation.
Update Your Equipment
Today's pool heaters are much more energy efficient than the heaters made just a few years ago. Over the lifetime of the heater the savings could more than pay for the cost of a new heater.
Inspect Annually
When reopening your pool for a new season, make sure your pump and filter are working properly before adding chemicals to the water.
Replace Your Cartridges
Clogged cartridges put unneeded stress on your pool pump and lower the efficiency of your filter. Replace your filter cartridges before they reduce the quality of your filtration. Poolfilters.biz provides high quality replacement cartridges at the lowest possible prices.
