Environmentally Friendly Swimming Pools
Not "green" water; but, an Eco-Friendly pool!
As we become more conscious of the environmental impact of our homes and gardens, we should also consider our swimming pools. A "green" pool pays attention to energy efficiency and water and resource conservation.
A salt system converts salt into chlorine, eliminating the need to transport and handle chlorine tablets or powder. Though it is effective at keeping your pool clean, chlorine is a toxic substance. Pool water that is sanitized by a salt system feels clean and refreshing and won't burn your eyes, ruin hair color or fade bathing suits the way chlorine does.

A "Green" swimming pool:
Minimizes the use of chemicals
Use a salt-sterilization system instead of chlorine. Pools generally need chlorine concentrations of 2 to 4 parts per million to stay sanitized. The chemical generally is added weekly and in high quantities.A salt system converts salt into chlorine, eliminating the need to transport and handle chlorine tablets or powder.

Minimizes energy consumption for pumping and heating
Use a more efficient pump and filter. In environmentally friendly states like Florida and California, pool owners have moved to cartridge filter systems. They eliminate the need to backwash and are easy to keep clean. We also recommend energy efficient LED lighting. LED lighting systems cost half to operate than conventional lighting and have a much longer bulb life.Reduces reliance on fresh water by minimizing evaporation
Eco-friendly swimming pools use pool covers. Swimming pool covers keep the pool cleaner, and help reduce chemical and filter maintenance costs. A pool cover also reduces the amount of water and chlorine lost to evaporation. Covers can also minimize heat loss, keeping your pool water comfortably warm, miminizing pool heater usage and possibly extending your swimming season.Added Benefits
Going "green" for your swimming pool lowers the operating costs and time spent maintaining the pool, leaving you with more time to have fun!For more information or a free "Green" survey, contact Dolphin Pools at 318-340-0001.
