Energy loss is Expensive!!

“Covering a pool is the most effective means of reducing energy costs. Covering a pool = energy cost savings of 50% - 70%.” - US Department of Energy

An estimated 70% of energy loss is attributed to evaporation. By simply covering an indoor pool when not in use, you can instantly enjoy savings of 50-70%. This proactive measure also leads to a reduction in chemical consumption, resulting in annual savings of approximately $5,000 - $7,000. Additionally, the amount of makeup water needed is decreased by 30% - 50%.

Furthermore, covering the pool contributes to a less corrosive environment within the building, extending the lifespan of fixtures, windowsills, paint, beams, and exposed metals. This not only reduces maintenance costs but also enhances the overall durability of the structure. Moreover, lower heating bills and reduced strain on HVAC equipment are additional benefits of implementing this simple yet effective practice.

♦ Save 50%-70% on energy costs with consistent use ♦
♦ Save $5k - $7k annually on chemical consumption ♦
♦ Reduce make up water by 30%-50% ♦


“When we built our first 6 lane 
25-yard pool our heating and water use bill for the month of November was over $5,000.  We invested in pool covers.  We used them every night.  Our water and heating bills never exceeded $1800 from that point on.”
