As you probably know by now, all Laguna Beach pool owners must place a pool cover on their pool or face fines. That’s because when the Laguna Beach Council lifted the moratorium on new pools, they placed new regulations on the owners of existing pools. Pool builders may be off the hook, but for existing pools, a Laguna Beach pool cover is a must have item. If you don’t have a cover, you face a fine. Beachside Pool Service doesn’t want you to get fined. Here’s what you need to know.

Pool Covers Reduce Evaporation

Each day, your pool loses a small amount of water from evaporation. The amount of evaporation depends on the exposure to the sun, humidity levels, wind speed, and temperature. While the amount of water that evaporates from one pool in one day may not be significant, when you multiply this by every pool in Laguna Beach and then multiply that by every day of the year that it does not rain, you are losing a significant amount of water in the area. During a drought, the amount becomes even more significant. It’s almost scary! Pool covers reduce the exposure of the surface of the pool to the elements that contribute to evaporation. Pool covers make a significant reduction in evaporation.

Pool Covers Conserve Heat

In addition to saving water, pool covers conserve heat as well. By conserving heat, you save on the energy required to heat the pool. Less energy used equal more money saved. The US Department of Energy estimates that a pool with a cover in this area uses 81% less energy.

 Solar Blankets Can be Used as a Laguna Beach Pool Cover

The downside to physical pool covers is that they are expensive to purchase and install. While they may save money in the long run, they do make cleaning your pool harder and they take away the aesthetic appeal of a pool.

Fortunately, physical pool covers aren’t the only type of pool covers. Liquid pool covers are an additive that when applied to your pool forms a solar blanket that reduces evaporation and saves heat; just like a physical pool cover. However, it is much less expensive. The product can be added to your pool every week at the time of your regular pool service.

Beachside Pool Service recommends the use of the CoverFree Solar Blanket by the Natural Chemistry company. When properly applied, the CoverFree Solar Blanket forms a single, protective layer on the surface of your pool. The ingredients are not toxic and the product is completely safe to use around your pets and children. Beachside Pool Service is more than happy to provide the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for CoverFree Solar Blanket upon request.
