A cost not to be forgotten when building a swimming pool

Having a swimming pool at home is a common dream for almost half of all French people. It’s a place where relaxation, conviviality and entertainment take center stage!

This is an undeniable plus for any property. Choosing to build your own swimming pool will increase the value of your property. It’s a real investment.

Depending on your situation, you’ll need to think about the costs of earthworks, drainage, transport and, depending on the type of pool to be installed, the cost of concrete or the construction of your pool house.

Don’t forget the cost of the electrical connection. We recommend that you ask for a clear quote and use the services of expert, recognized pool specialists, so as to avoid any surprises and benefit from their sound advice.

Cost of electricity consumption for a swimming pool

The main cost of owning a swimming pool is electricity consumption. In fact, various tools are essential for your pond, such as the filtration pump, heater, pH regulator pumps and lights: all powered by electricity.

Consumption will depend not only on the running times of these tools, which are essential for optimum pool maintenance, but also on their power!

To heat your pool, the cost will of course be higher if you want to reach a warmer temperature. The region in which you live will therefore have a major impact in this respect.

Here again, your pool specialist can advise you on all the issues involved: don’t hesitate to ask!
