Installing pool enclosures have many benefits. To start with, the amount of money spent on heating the eater is decreased while security and safety is increased. Also, an enclosure makes it possible to swim throughout the year regardless of the weather. Water evaporation is also reduced as well as the amount of chemicals that are needed, and general maintenance is easier.
There are quite a few things to be considered before investing in or the installation of an enclosure. One of the first things to decide on is whether to purchase an enclosure that is trackless or tracked. The convenience of a tracked system is that a person can open and close it without help and a trackless system necessitates two people to evenly pull or push both sides at the same time to keep it from getting offline.
You will also need to consider where your pool is located and if the area is subject to wind. If the enclosure is to be installed in an open area it is best to consider a low profile system or one that is securely fastened to the ground. If the location is sheltered from the wind, than a higher system will be fine.
Also pay particular attention to the surrounding grounds. If there is a raised lip around the pool or the area surrounding it is limited, you will need to make sure your measurements take these things into consideration since you want the system to set as close to the edge as possible. The installation of the system has to be made past the raised lip.
In addition, take into consideration the condition of the ground surrounding the area. To make sure that the system will operate efficiently, the surrounding ground must be somewhat level and smooth. This is of particular importance if the enclosure being installed is not a tracked system.
It is less important for the area to be even when a tracked system is installed. However, an area that has ground that is very uneven will make it necessary to take steps to even out the ground to ensure that the enclosure works properly. Also evaluate how much space there is between the edge of the pool and the system for accessing the filters and to clean. These access points should be considered when measuring for installation, especially if a tracked system is being considered.
Also consider if there is enough room in the area for delivery of the enclosure and the amount of room available for installation. Think about whether it will be installed for you or you will be able to install it yourself. Keep in mind that the larger systems usually come pre assembled and need more space than the low profile enclosures.
Before buying a system, it is important to check with your local planning office to see if there are any permits that are needed for installing pool enclosures. Finally, you will consider the cost of a low profile or a larger system. Do some comparison shopping to find the best price for the system that will meet your needs.
