Top 5 Reasons to Enclose Your Pool

Top 5 Reasons to Enclose Your Pool

You have the perfect swimming pool installed to combat the Tampa heat. However, you have one problem. You don’t have it enclosed! Recently, you’ve noticed that many of your neighbors have invested in one. Tampa, Florida, boasts a bright sun, sweltering heat, buzzing bugs, and tropical storms all year round. Do you know that these can cause serious issues for maintaining your pool?

These are the best 5 reasons for a customized pool enclosure:

1. Control the Hot Temperature – Florida is about tropical heat and year round sunshine. Use screen materials that can keep your pool cool enough to be enjoyed. Installing one will absorb up to 70% of the sun’s heat and glare. It acts as the best buffer against the burning heat.

2. Add Real Estate Value — Did you know that an enclosure can increase the real estate value of your home? When it comes time to sell your home, having the pool screen means selling your property for a higher price. A screened pool increases the overall size of your home by adding circumference to the outdoor area. Designing a screening enclosure creates a much more aesthetically pleasing property.

3. Keep Unfriendly Visitors Out — You want to make sure your pool is not a zoo. The wildlife has a tendency to creep into the water for the same reason you do—to stay cool and enjoy the water. Build a barrier for your pool and keep out frogs, snakes, raccoons, opossums, and alligators. Let’s face it, these animals are not known for their cleanliness. They are also not safe around your children playing by the pool. Insects are also a major problem. Hornets, wasps, and mosquitoes can cause bodily harm and carry diseases. The West Nile Virus is a very real threat for Tampa residents. A screen safeguards you, your family, and pets.

4. Cut Down On Energy and Maintenance — A clean pool requires proper upkeep. Chemicals to regulate the water, cleaning agents for filthy, tiles and overall energy costs to light the terrace area all pile up when you have a usable pool year round. Screen enclosures drastically lessen time and energy expended cleaning leaves, debris, grass clippings, dead insects and paying for pest control because an alligator decided to live in your pool. Without outside forces dirtying the water in general, the budget for cleaning agents and services is cut down considerably. Furthermore, it’s great for the environment!

5. The Joy of Quality Aluminum — The best material for enclosing your pool is undoubtedly aluminum. We will build a custom design which will match the aesthetics of your home. The material is resistant to Florida’s tropical heat and storms which can weather and damage fences made up of lesser materials. Moreover, the material is strong enough to withstand animal intruders as they attempt to claw their way into your pool. The highest grade materials will save you money in the long run. They are more durable and will not be replaced any time soon.

As a Tampa homeowner, a pool is a great addition but requires extra responsibility. A pool enclosure is an excellent investment for protection, comfort, and affordability.
