Geo-Conscious

Happy Earth Day!!

Here is just another reason why Crystal Palace Pools are Geo-Conscious!

Fiberglass pools in general act as a natural insulator. Your filter and heater will potentially run dramatically less than equipment on vinyl/gunite pools. Depending on the climate and size of the pool, a homeowner can save up to $225.00 per month on their pool maintenance with our pools versus other types of pools (vinyl/gunite). With more and more people concerned about our environment, our Geo-Conscious pools are already the pool of tomorrow. Not only do out pools use less chemicals and energy, our pools never been to be re-plastered, nor do they have a liner to replace – thus resulting in less waste in our landfills.

Geo-Conscious

 

Here is reason number 2 why Crystal Palace fiberglass pools are very Eco-Friendly!

Due to the on-porous finish on our pools, fewer chemicals are needed because algae is less prone to attach to smoother surfaces. Additionally, less cleaning will have to be performed using automatic pool cleaners saving electricity. When automatic pool cleaners are used, the time it takes to clean the pool will be reduced, saving additional energy.

Geo-Conscious

In celebration of Earth Week Crystal Palace Pool would like to share with you why our fiberglass pools are Eco-Friendly.

As fiberglass pools do not rely on steel panels or steel mesh/rebar for structure, they do not have the potential to leech chemicals and rust back into the groundwater as a more conventional constructed pool would.
