The benefits of the installation of pool enclosures are many. They start with the amount of money saved to heat the water and the increased security and safety they provide. An enclosure will also allow for year round swimming no matter what the weather conditions are. Enclosures help reduce water evaporation, reduce the amount of chemicals needed, and simplifies then maintenance.
Several things should be taken into consideration before buying and installing a system. You will want to think about which type of system you want, one that is trackless or one that is tracked. The convenience of a tracked system is that it takes only one person to open and close it while the trackless will need two people on either side to push or pull evenly and simultaneously to make certain it does not go offline.
You will also need to consider where your pool is located and if the area is subject to wind. If the enclosure is to be installed in an open area it is best to consider a low profile system or one that is securely fastened to the ground. If the location is sheltered from the wind, than a higher system will be fine.
Also pay particular attention to the surrounding grounds. If there is a raised lip around the pool or the area surrounding it is limited, you will need to make sure your measurements take these things into consideration since you want the system to set as close to the edge as possible. The installation of the system has to be made past the raised lip.
In addition, take into consideration the condition of the ground surrounding the area. To make sure that the system will operate efficiently, the surrounding ground must be somewhat level and smooth. This is of particular importance if the enclosure being installed is not a tracked system.
When using a system that is tracked, it is not as important for the surrounding area to be as even. However, if the area is extremely uneven it will be necessary to think about evening it out so the system will work smoothly. Also consider the amount of space you will need between the pools edge and the system to access filter covers and to allow room for cleaning. When measuring for installation, especially a tracked system, access points will need to be considered.
The area must also be accessible for the delivery of the enclosure and there must be enough room for its installation. You will also want to consider whether to install the system yourself, or pay to have it installed for you. Keep in mind that the larger systems are usually pre assembled so they require more room than a low profile enclosure.
Prior to purchasing a system, make certain to check with the local planning office in case there are permits needed to install pool enclosures. Lastly, consider how much it will cost to install a low profile system and the larger system. It i a good idea to comparison shop to make sure you get the best price for the system you want.
For both residential and commercial clients, custom built structures open many different spaces up to the sun, air and stars. These include pool enclosures and operable skylights for pools, atriums, patios, water park design, anywhere that a truly open space is desired.
