Hello World! Welcome Friends! It is perfectly feasible to be able to enjoy all of the benefits of having your own pool and manage the running and maintenance of it in an eco-friendly way.
The answer is often to engage pool builders who have the same mindset and can help you to create a swimming pool that has excellent green credentials and can be maintained in a way that is mindful of environmental issues.
Here are some useful maintenance tips to help you achieve your goal of having an eco-friendly pool.
A Safer and Friendlier Way to Clean Your Pool
One of the biggest dilemmas you might have as a pool owner who wants to be as eco-friendly as possible is how you keep your pool clean without using chemicals that are often considered to be harmful to the environment.
A good solution would be to use a robot cleaner. This enables you to extract debris and remove sediment from your pool in a very clean and efficient way without using chemicals.
It works by floating around your pool and collecting floating debris using a regular maintenance schedule. It even tackles grime by loosening it with a brush before collecting the waste. You simply empty the waste in your garbage. Allowing you to enjoy a clean pool without using chemicals.
A Better Alternative to Chlorine
A good option to consider as an alternative to chlorine would be saltwater chlorination.
Using dissolved salt to pass through your pool’s chlorination system, generates hypochlorous acid, which is a milder and more eco-friendlier alternative to chlorine.
Use UV Light to Get Rid of Contaminants
Investing in a UV cleaner can improve your green credentials. It uses UV light to remove contaminants from your pool and is considered to be a green product that allows you to keep your pool safer and healthier without resorting to chemicals.
Ultraviolet pool sanitizers are designed to produce a high-intensity germicidal light ray. This has the ability to alter or disrupt the DNA of organisms such as bacteria and algae. This method also helps eliminate the formation of chlorine by-products, which are considered dangerous to your health.
Improve Your Knowledge
Another simple but effective strategy to improve your green credentials would be to commit to learning more about what each product you are using does. Learning how it works and what it contains will improve your pool management skills.
It will also help you to identify products or maintenance tasks that you need to evaluate and find safer alternatives if your current methods don’t tick the right boxes.
Find the Best Way to Heat Your Pool
Last but not least, it makes a lot of sense to take a good look at what pool heating options you currently use. It may be that there are better alternatives that are kinder to the planet and could also be more cost-efficient when it comes to how much you pay to heat your swimming pool.
Solar energy is an obvious option. It is always worth seeing what eco-friendly heating options are currently available so that you can check to confirm if you can improve on your current setup.
If you review these eco-friendly suggestions you may well find a way to enjoy the use of your pool with a greater degree of confidence that you are doing what you can to protect the environment while enjoying the fun and health benefits that come with pool ownership.
