And, if you decide that a pool enclosure is, indeed, in your best interest, then Tripod Aluminum is here to make that happen!
Myth #1: Pool Enclosures Are Too Expensive
Many people believe that pool enclosures are too expensive and not a luxury they can afford. Tripod Aluminum professionals will share the enclosure options we offer. We will take your budget into consideration and help you find a solution that fits your budget. All our enclosures are built with high-quality materials, and we have options that are budget-friendly without compromising quality.
While there is the initial cost of the enclosure, it will also offer financial benefits in the long run. You will save on pool maintenance costs as pools with enclosures require fewer chemicals due to less evaporation and less debris. A pool enclosure can also add value to your home.
Myth #2: Pool Enclosures Are Ugly And Ruin The View
We offer a variety of styles for pool enclosures. Everyone has unique tastes, so pool enclosures cannot be a “one size fits all” home investment. They come in different styles and sizes. If you are worried about them being ugly or ruining your view, then consider our panoramic pool enclosures. Without the traditional horizontal bars, our panoramic pool enclosures offer an unobstructed view while protecting your pool from debris and pests. These are the perfect solution for those who simply don’t like the look of traditional pool enclosures, as well as those who have a water view or view of the woods or wetlands.
Myth #3: Pool Enclosures Only Help With Bugs
While pool enclosures do keep bugs out allowing you to enjoy your outdoor space without pesky flies or bee stings, they are also helpful in a variety of other ways. They can protect your pool and family from larger pests too. If you prefer not to find a gator going for a dip in your pool, a pool enclosure is the perfect solution!
As mentioned above, they save you money with less pool maintenance too. Keeping debris out of your pool is a huge way to save on pool maintenance. Leaves and other debris that blow into your pool can quickly upset the balance of chemicals. If you feel like you are in a constant fight with Mother Nature to keep your pool from turning green, then a pool enclosure is what you need.
Pool enclosures help maintain a more constant temperature in your pool allowing for more comfortable swimming and possibly even extending your swimming season. Additionally, they help guard against the sun’s harmful UV rays, although you should still wear sunscreen. It is Florida, after all.
Myth #4: Pool Enclosures Are Difficult To Maintain
Where did you hear this myth? Probably not from someone who actually has a pool enclosure. Any maintenance required far outweighs the hassle of cleaning a pool full of the neighbor’s oak leaves after a tropical storm has blown through! If you have ever had thousands of oak leaves at the bottom of your pool, clogging up your skimmer, sweeper, and filters, then you understand.
Our pool enclosures are extremely low maintenance. They are made of aluminum which is rust-resistant – perfect for the humidity in Florida. They are easily hosed off if you see they have gotten dusty or dirty. If you ever experience a tear in your screening, you can give us a call because we not only install screen enclosures, we also do screen repairs.
Myth #5: Pool Enclosures Cause You To Lose Usable Space
Actually, you will probably find that you spend much more time outside once your pool enclosure is installed. It provides a space that is bug-free and offers sun protection. Those are valuable commodities in Florida! Instead of losing space, you can view your pool area as additional living space. Get some patio furniture, throw a table and chairs out there for family game night, hang some lights, and you have got yourself a whole extra, usable living space. With the amazing weather here in Florida, you will get a ton of use out of your enclosure.
