What are the benefits of a pool remodel?

One of the biggest benefits of a pool remodel is that you always get your money back. So besides enjoying family time and quality time with your kids, it’s a good investment.

Consider the money you plunk down on a new iPhone every year or every other year for essentially the same thing. Sure, it might have more storage or a better camera, but ultimately, it’s the same thing. And then look at what you can get with a pool remodel—increased safety, upgraded technology, and a bevy of features that are bound to make your pool sparkle.

While some may balk at the cost of a pool remodel, let’s look at what you really get for your money.

Safety

• Chemical controller systems regulate pH and disinfectant levels so that pool water is always optimal. If either is out of range, bleach or acid are pumped into the system until it reaches the proper range.

• Anti-entrapment drain covers ensure children do not become trapped underwater by falling victim to the suction of a drain.

• Leak-detection apps do exactly as the name applies. If there’s a leak, the homeowner will be alerted to prevent a costly repair.

• Pool alarms and motion sensors detect surface disruption to indicate if a child or pet falls into the pool.

• Baby gates prevent accidental drownings. They usually come with an advanced locking system that is outside of a child’s reach.

Lighting

• Fiber-optic pool lights operate via LED lights, which are much lower in cost than traditional incandescent lights. Also, every pool is required to have a light, so it’s wise to do an upgrade that costs less.

Technology

• Control features like lighting, heating, filtration, cleaning, and basic water chemistry with the click of a button.

• Safety Vacuum Release Systems (SVRS). These operate as a backup to drowning systems and will turn off automatically if a child becomes entrapped.

Features

• Water bowls and fire features add a touch of elegance to any outdoor pool setting.
• Perimeter lighting. Set the mood, change the color, and create ambiance with perimeter lighting.  

But it’s not just aesthetics that change over time. A pool that was originally constructed more than a decade ago likely does not conform to the current building codes. While it might be tempting to fly under the radar to save money, you’re also taking a gamble creating major repairs that could have been minor had you not ignored them. So a cosmetic remodel might turn into a structural overhaul, but rest assured it will deliver on beauty and functionality when it’s complete.
