HOW MUCH DOES A SWIMMING POOL COST TO HEAT AND RUN?

There are a number of factors to consider, heating source, filtration time and chemicals. For an example, a Desjoyaux Pool only needs to run for 14hrs per days filtering your pool due to the flow rates and water turnover, saving you money on running costs. We also have no requirement for backwashing compared to traditional systems, your not wasting your nice clean, heated and treated water to clean your filter system out. With an air-source heat pump, 80% of the heat produced for your pool is provided free of cost.

SHOULD I COVER MY SWIMMING POOL?

Yes! Initially to reduce heat loss and reduce running costs. At the same time from a security perspective, your pool can be completely secured with a slatted deck cover with NFP90-308 safety standards. A basic blanket or bubble cover will offer a high level of heat retention, but if you’re looking to increase the water temperature then a solar slatted cover will do exactly that, a polycarbonate slat will increase pool water temperatures between 5 to 8° during spring and summer months.
