Eco-Friendly Pool Upgrades: Smarter, Cleaner, and More Efficient

No doubt about it—you love your swimming pool. But have you considered how your pool impacts the environment? Advances in pool technology have made it easier than ever to reduce energy use, cut down on chemical usage, and make pool ownership more sustainable.

Here are three key upgrades that will make your pool more efficient and eco-friendly.

1. Switch to a Saltwater System
Traditional chlorine pools require regular additions of liquid or tablet chlorine, which must be manufactured, transported, and stored—adding to environmental strain.

A salt chlorine generator provides a more sustainable solution.

  • Uses common table salt (NaCl) to generate chlorine naturally

  • Reduces the amount of chemicals poured into the pool

  • Provides softer, gentler water that’s better for your skin and eyes

With a salt system, you’ll enjoy crystal-clear water with fewer chemicals and less maintenance. Plus, the gentler water helps prevent red, irritated eyes—especially for kids who love to swim with their eyes open.

2. Smart Pool Automation for Energy Efficiency
Did you or your guests forget to turn off your pool heater or pump? With a smart pool control system, you can manage your pool’s settings remotely from your phone.

  • Automate heating, filtration, and lighting for maximum efficiency

  • Reduce unnecessary energy usage and lower your utility bills

  • Improve convenience with real-time remote access

Perfect for vacation rental property owners, smart pool automation ensures your guests enjoy a comfortable swim while you maintain control over energy costs—no matter where you are. By upgrading to a smart system, you’ll cut energy waste and make managing your pool easier than ever.

3. Upgrade to a High-Efficiency Heater (and Claim a $400 Rebate!)
Older gas pool heaters are energy hogs, consuming excessive fuel to keep your pool warm. Newer high-efficiency gas heaters use significantly less energy, saving you money and reducing emissions.

  • Heat your pool faster with less fuel

  • Lower your monthly energy costs
