Scottsdale, Arizona swimming pool contractors, SwimRight Pools, offers environmentally friendly pool tips 

Pool owners in Arizona, quite frequently are looking for ways to conserve water, especially in the height (and heat) of summer. The swimming pool contractors from SwimRight Pools offer these tips to be more environmentally friendly with your swimming pool:

1. Use a swimming pool cover. First and foremost this will keep any heat trapped in, keep dirt and debris out and also help slow the rate of evaporation. These can all lead up to your having to use fewer chemicals to keep the pool water clean.
2. Use a variable speed swimming pool pump. With a variable speed pump the pump will run faster and harder when it has to and slower and easier when the task is only as simple as circulating the water throughout the pool as opposed to running the pool vacuum.
3. Invest in Energy Star rated pool equipment as this will make the running of your pool more energy efficient.
4. Ask us about ways to cut back on chlorine use while still keeping your pool water clean, clear and free of bacteria. Add chemicals when the sun has gone down.
5. Look for plants, especially in Arizona, that are drought resistant and require little to no watering.

Another way to save money and be more environmentally friendly is to use energy efficient lighting both in and around the pool. Talk with us the next time we pay a service visit to look for ways in which your pool can be more environmentally friendly.
