Keeping Pool Water Cooler In Summer..How To..
by Peter
Water does actually get way to hot in the Australian summer. Thanks Peter Thanks for the question Peter There are a couple of ways to cool your pool in the Summer, but with heat and sun, the pool water will evaporate and chemical use will rise. This is like the Law of Gravity, and there's no way around it. First, you can install a spray system on your pool. Your question doesn't say whether it's an above ground or inground pool, but I'll assume it's an inground swimming pool. Most inground pools have a built in sprayer system just for this. They are mounted on the sides of the pool and can be turned on during the day to cool the pool while it's in use. The sprayer system causes the water to evaporate a bit quicker, but it also catches the heat rising from the pool and puts it in the air. Another way to have some kind of pool fountain, either floating or installed. Pool Fountains..Swimming Pool Fountain..Water Features.. This works in the same manner as the water sprayer system. A 3rd system is called a Pool Cooler from Mist Cooling. While I've not have personal experience with this kind of pool cooling system, I've heard from others that they seem to work pretty well. It might be something to look into. Another way is obvious, to load up your pool with massive blocks of ice, but this is not cost effective, nor is it a long-term solution. The other ways to cool your pool might be the best. Hope this helps and have a great Summer Robert |
