Advanced Pools, Inc. contractors in Memphis, Tennessee offer the top swimming pool options of the season
A the beginning of the swimming pool construction season our clients will ask us, “what are the most popular swimming pool options and accessories of the year?” While some things remain constant in the swimming pool construction world, trends do come and go.
Here, from your pool contractors from Advanced Pools, Inc. is some information on what the top pool accessories and add-ons for your pool are:
A salt water chlorinator. These devices allow you to have bacteria-free pool water without having to use chlorine to keep it that way. A salt water chlorinated pool is still using some measure of chlorine as the generator turns the salt into chlorine to clean the pool. To use one of these pieces of equipment you need to add bags of granulated salt to the pool at the beginning of the season. A chlorinator can cost up to $2,000 and the salt you use will cost about $100 per season. To clean your pool with typical chlorine it will cost around $350 per season. While the long-term costs are essentially the same, the upfront cost of a salt water chlorinator is an investment but mos pool owners find it worthwhile because they are swimming in a pool that requires less ongoing 
maintenance and they are not swimming in pure chlorinated water.
Security swimming pool covers are a great way to protect your children and your pets. These covers also keep dirt and debris out of the water and help slow the rate of evaporation. Using a pool cover could also mean you have to use fewer chemicals to keep the water clean. Security covers can support the weight of a child who may slip away from his parents and make a beeline for the swimming pool. These covers are an ideal second layer of protection for swimming pool owners.
Swimming pool lights. If you love swimming at night, it’s safest to have underwater pool lights installed. These lights make it easier to see in the depths of the pool and add a layer of security for anyone using the pool at night. In addition, pool lights add to the beauty and aesthetics of your pool. Ask us about installing LED lights because these bulbs will burn for close to 10,000 hours and that means a long time between having to change them.
Trends in swimming pools come and go so make certain you’re making decisions on what to install in your pool based on your family’s unique needs, not on a trend.
