Many manufacturers have taken it upon themselves to be leaders in energy efficient equipment and environmentally friendly chemicals, and Sunset Pools & Spas is happy to partner with them. Please read below about the ways you can improve your pool's efficiency and reduce its carbon footprint. One of the biggest breakthroughs in pool equipment has been with the introduction of variable speed pumps.

If you haven't used your pool or hot tub in a while, it may be in need of some maintenance. Below are a few tips that will help you prepare your pool before summer begins and aid you with maintaining it during the season. When closing your pool at the end of the season, don't make the mistake of emptying the pool entirely. The only reason you should empty your pool is if you have no other choice. For example, if you need to have structural work done or there is too much debris at the bottom of the pool, then you have little choice but to empty the pool.

Unfortunately, the same types of situations can occur with a swimming pool.

When to open and close your pool is really up to you. However, we recommend closing the pool before Chicago gets hit with freezing temperatures. Although the plumbing will be fine with the pump on, there is always the risk of losing power, which could lead to serious damage to the pool's filtration equipment. The best way to prevent your pool from turning green is to open your pool in early spring, such as April, and to open and close your pool when the water temperature is 65 degrees or less. Closing your pool at this temperature will help to minimize or prevent algae growth during the colder months when the pool is not in use.

An inground pool is so much more than a place to swim. It's a lasting investment in both your home and in your life.

When you think of luxury pools, you certainly don't picture a standard concrete rectangle. It's the subtle differences that separate the truly distinctive swimming pool designs, and we'll tell you more about how you can have one on your own property. If you're thinking of redesigning your current pool in Chicago or starting from scratch, you have a lot to think about from now until the time when you take your first dip. To create a luxury pool, it takes careful planning. Your space will have to be considered in conjunction with any personal vision you may have.

Pool construction gets complicated quickly, and just the thought of that effort can cause property and landowners to abandon the idea before they even understand what's necessary. First things first, you'll need to ensure you can actually have a pool on your property. You will need to adhere to the building laws laid out by the state of Illinois to install a pool, so you'll need to complete the forms before you go any further. Building officials will be checking to ensure your pool installation won't interfere with things like septic tanks, wells, or water or sewer lines, and filling you in on the exact parameters and specifications of safety regulations.

So you have a pool that's not exactly inviting. Maybe it's out of date or out of order. Maybe it's just plain boring. With some creativity and our help, you can remodel that eyesore and turn it into an oasis that everyone will enjoy. Interior resurfacing can give an older concrete pool a fresh new look. With interior resurfacing, we can restore a pristine white surface to its original condition or change it up by adding some flair. Consider colored, stain-resistant plaster; durable pebble surfaces; custom tile for lining the top few inches of the pool; or a stunning inlaid mosaic.
