The different energy consumption items of a swimming pool

Before you start building your swimming pool , it is important to understand what can cost you dearly when maintaining your swimming pool :

• Water: In addition to filling your shell pool before starting it up , you should know that you will need to regularly adjust the water level due to evaporation and possible splashes caused by swimming. Hydraulic cleaning of the sand filter , also called “backwashing”, also requires the use of water. This essential step for the good health of your pool should be carried out every week or month, depending on the volume of your pool and the environment.
• Electricity: filtration pump, heating or even electrical treatment devices , all of these devices need electricity to function properly. The cost associated with electricity varies and depends in particular on the technical characteristics of your pool.
• Maintenance products: to enjoy healthy and clean water in all circumstances, regular maintenance of your pool is essential. Chlorine, stabilizers, and other maintenance products must therefore be used on a recurring basis to disinfect the water and thus prevent the proliferation of bacteria and germs inside your pool.

The different characteristics to take into account for an economical swimming pool

As you will have understood, to build an economical swimming pool , you will need to think about the characteristics of your pool before the project. The size, shape and exposure of your pool will need to be taken into account if you want to save money on water, electricity and maintenance products.

In terms of dimensions, ask yourself the right questions: what will my pool be used for ? If you mainly want to swim and enjoy family bathing moments, it may not be necessary for it to be deep. Keep in mind that the larger your pool, the more energy it will consume, whether in terms of water requirements, maintenance products or heating time.

To save money, also think about the location of your shell pool and its exposure. Preferably, install your pool in a bright space that benefits from long periods of sunshine. Ideally, it should be exposed to the sun during swimming hours, i.e. between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. In this way, you will avoid heating your pool , which represents the largest source of energy consumption.

Your pool is already built and you still want to reduce your energy costs? It's possible! Practiced regularly, these good practices will allow you to make some savings:

• To avoid having an under-filtered or over-filtered pool, be sure to find out about the filtration time required for your pool. This will depend in particular on its water volume, its temperature and the number of swimmers.
• To avoid buying cleaning products , regularly check the condition of your water. As the saying goes, prevention is better than cure!
• To limit the evaporation of your water, do not hesitate to equip yourself with a cover . In addition to reducing your water consumption, you will also save money on the maintenance of your pool !
• Do you want to light up your pool so you can enjoy it as soon as night falls? Consider installing LED bulbs , which have the advantage of being more economical!
