Pool water evaporates faster in high heat, especially when exposed to constant sun and wind. Using a pool cover is the most effective way to reduce water loss. You can also plant windbreaks or use shade structures to help regulate surface temperature. Minimising evaporation helps conserve water and maintain chemical balance.

A variable-depth pool offers more versatility, with shallow zones for relaxation and deeper sections for exercise or diving. It can cater to different age groups and usage preferences in one cohesive design. These pools often require custom construction but provide excellent long-term value. Proper planning ensures safety and accessibility across all depths.

Yes—rain can dilute chemicals, change pH levels and introduce debris or contaminants into the pool. After heavy rainfall, it’s important to test your water and rebalance sanitiser and pH. If runoff enters the pool, it may also raise phosphate levels, encouraging algae. A quick post-rain service helps keep your water healthy and clear.

Ozone and UV systems reduce reliance on chlorine by neutralising bacteria and organic matter through advanced oxidation. They produce fewer by-products, offering cleaner, gentler water. However, they still require some residual chlorine to maintain sanitisation in the pool itself. These systems are a great upgrade for health-conscious or sensitive swimmers.
