If you are entertaining the idea of new in-ground pool construction, you have probably already decided on the size and materials. What you may not have considered is additional equipment for your pool. You can add numerous components that will increase the aesthetics, your value, and your enjoyment. One of these components is a pool heater. There are multiple reasons to add one. The best time to do so is during your pool construction. 

Heaters Will Extend Your Swimming Seasons

Most people do not enjoy swimming in cold weather. Choosing not to swim when the temperatures drop below a certain level means having a limited season when your pool is open. 

A pool heater will allow you to decide how long you and your family can swim. By choosing to increase the temperature of your water after the surrounding air and ground have cooled down, you can extend your swimming season. 

Depending on where you live, you may extend your season year-round. If you leave your heated pool open to enjoy, you never have to worry about going through the closing process. Most pool heaters on the market today are cost-effective. You can leave your pool open without worrying about a massive jump in your electrical costs. 

Heaters Optimize Your Investment

New pool construction can be a significant investment to get everything you want in a pool. A boost in your property value will return some of this investment. But the more substantial investment can be the additional time you spend with your friends and family.

A pool heater creates the perfect temperature in your pool year-round. You don't have to worry about planning pool parties only to find your pool too cool for your guest's enjoyment. Just choose your temperature, set your dial, and enjoy your swim.

Heaters Are Low Maintenance

One of the best parts about pool heaters is their lack of maintenance. The heaters require very little care or repair. Visual inspections of your heater and occasional servicing will allow your heater to last for many years. 

Heaters Increase Your Fitness Options

Swimming is one of the most beneficial physical activities you can enjoy. It is low-impact, easy on the joints, and provides tremendous cardiovascular benefits. Adding a heater to your pool construction allows you to increase your pool's temperature, providing even more physical benefits. If you choose, you can raise the temperature until your pool is jacuzzi warm.
