The month of October marks the transition to autumn and brings with it the worry of starting to prepare homes and gardens for winter. However, we're talking about a season that still has many warm days in store for us, especially in parts of Portugal, Spain, Italy, France (southern region), and even in parts of the United States, such as California and Florida.
Even when the temperatures start to drop, there are solutions that allow you to extend the bathing season. This scenario of enjoying your own pool all year round might seem like a luxury reserved for those living in warmer climates, but no! With technological advances, it is possible to extend the diving season for longer, thus keeping the water temperature pleasant, even in colder areas.
In this blog, we'll give you some tips on how to enjoy your pool even in the coldest seasons of the year.
HEAT PUMPS
A heat pump is a piece of equipment designed to capture heat from the ambient air and transfer it to the water. This product uses a thermodynamic cycle to take advantage of the heat present in the air and raise the temperature in order to heat the pool water.
By investing in a heat pump, you can enjoy your pool for more months of the year, increasing the return on your investment and preventing your pool from being unused for so long. This is a more economical and environmentally friendly solution.
THERMAL COVERS
Thermal covers are placed over the surface of the pool water and are designed to reduce heat loss and keep the water temperature more pleasant. They prevent heat from dissipating through evaporation, while at the same time preventing cold air from entering the pool.
We know that during the months of October and November, temperatures can drop a lot at night. The purpose of these covers is precisely to prevent heat loss from the pool water during these colder nights. In addition, these covers help keep the pool clean by reducing the amount of leaves and debris that can fall in during autumn.
At iot-pool, we believe that autumn doesn't have to be the end of using your pool. With the right technologies, such as heat pumps and thermal covers, you can continue to enjoy your pool even when the temperatures start to drop. October still has plenty of warmth to offer, and we're here to make sure you can enjoy your pool for longer. Visit our website or contact us to find out more about extending the pool season!
