Many people today want to be more energy-efficient to save money and be ecologically responsible. There are a number of ways to make your pool more energy-efficient. The benefits of installing an energy-efficient pool make it worth serious consideration.

1. Upgrade Your Pool Pump

Although an energy-efficient pool pump is more expensive than a regular pump, it can save you a good amount of money over its lifetime. Not only does it save energy, but it also lasts longer. Its speed varies depending on the pool’s operation. It essentially pays for itself in about two years, and you can save up to 80 percent on your energy bill.

2. Automation Systems

Automated pools can be programmed to prompt various operation modes, and this can save you up to 70 percent in energy costs. Automation can suit various backyard environments and routinely performs pool operations. The programming flexibility and technology helps the equipment function at peak proficiency with minimum energy usage.

3. Proficient Plumbing System

The pool plumbing system plays another key role in minimizing energy consumption. The proper size and placement of lines and elbows can reduce resistance in the hydraulic system. When hiring a plumbing subcontractor, make sure he or she is an expert in energy-saving plumbing.

Making a pool energy-efficient may be a large investment, but doing so saves money in the long run. This includes big savings on energy costs and pool equipment that lasts longer. In addition, there’s the benefit of knowing that you’re playing a part in protecting the environment. Visit Sequoyah Swimming Pools in Knoxville for more information.
