It’s time to go GREEN!!!

Recently, the term Equipment Upgrade got an eco-friendly meaning, with the development of pumps, heaters, filters, cleaners, controls etc. that are energy efficient and at the same time they meet the heavy demands of clean water flow.

Equipment that automates many of the processes you perform manually nowadays, will reduce the required maintenance and lower operation costs. Any equipment purchased after the initial installation of the equipment set is considered an Equipment Upgrade.  

One popular upgrade is the Salt Water conversion.There is no doubt that it's convenient to have a pool that makes its own chlorine it's also environmentally sound. Saltwater pools have a chlorine generator to produce a steady flow of chlorine, preventing them from being without. This reduces the algae build-up in the pool and helps preserve the life of the pool.

Salt is also softer on your skin than chlorine, no longer will you have to suffer red eyes, itchy skin or discolored hair, which often occurs from Chlorinated swimming pools. Saltwater pools practically sanitize themselves and require much less chemical additives than chlorine pools. Which means you do not have to store and handle toxic chemicals or suffer the odor of chlorine anymore.

Let Vacation Pools, Inc. help upgrade your pool experience. We want to maximize your enjoyment, while minimizing your daily maintenance and your energy bill. Below are a few options.

1. Variable Speed Pumps: A well designed variable speed pump can reduce the energy costs of running a swimming pool by up to 90%. Most variable speed pumps can be programmed to operate at set speeds to deliver the correct flow for each task they preform, such as operate a suction-side pool cleaner, waterfalls or spa jets. No matter what kind of pump is being used, slower pump speeds save energy. They also dramatically reduce the noise level associated with traditional pool pumps and reduce wear on not only the pump itself but also on filters, heaters, chlorinators and other equipment that water flows through.

2. Heat Pumps: Heat pump pool heaters are the most energy efficient way to maintain warm pool water temperatures in the early spring and into the early fall and they cost significantly less to operate than gas pool heaters. With heat pump pool heaters you can extend your swimming season and keep your pool open longer, without breaking your budget or significantly increasing your energy costs.

3. Solar Systems: A solar pool system harnesses the sun's energy and puts it to work heating your swimming pool. The best feature of Solar systems, is that they are absolutely FREE to use! Solar systems are durable and expandable, meaning the solar heating system will last several years. When it comes to being environmentally conscientous, there are few better investments than Solar.

4. Ice Breaker Heat Pump: Continues to heat in freezing temperatures to minimize heat loss, and best of all, this versatile heat pump can cool your pool to a refreshing temperature, making this the ideal heat pump for warmer climates.
The patented counter-flow water management system with titanium heat exchanger heats water faster, more efficiently and is impervious to chemical corrosion. The accurate, easy to read control panel features a bright blue display with on-board self diagnostics for simplified operation.
