Frank Bowman Designs - Raleigh Saltwater Swimming Pools

Saltwater Swimming Pools

Did you know that if you already have a conventional chlorine swimming pool, it can be switched over to a state of the art saltwater pool in no time at all? It's true saltwater pools can save the average homeowner hundreds of dollars per year on chemical costs as well as provide your friends and family an enjoyable swimming experience. No more chlorine smelling hair, itchy skin, forgetting to fill the chlorinator, trips to the store to pick up chlorine orforgetting and having the pool turn green...it all can be replaced with a saline based pool water that generates its own chlorine for you. The salt level is kept extremely low...only about 2800 - 3300 parts per million. Some people say they can taste, some people say they can't. But I think it's that you expect to taste chlorine and you don't, so you assume you are tasting salt. Either way talk to someone that has a saltwater pool and they will let you know that it is the only way to go for ease of maintenance and enjoyment.

Let's turn your pool "Green"

Everywhere you look more and more people are going green when it comes to their household purchases. Frank Bowman Designs is taking the green movement by storm with the introduction of "Green" products for your swimming pool.

The old standard residential swimming pool uses an alarmingly high amount of energy to run. With the cost of pools going down and more and more people jumping on board the swimming pool bandwagon, going Green is really the only way to go.

According to Green Living Online, "With just over eight million Pools in the U.S. and more than 600,000 in Canada, there is a growing awareness that residential pools may not be the most environmentally friendly form of recreation." They use a lot of electricity and gas with pumps to circulate the water through filters and heaters, typically running 24 hours a day. This is unnecessary when the average pool owner only spends about an hour a day swimming.

Frank Bowman Designs is aware of this and is in full swing with a variety of Alternative and Low Energy Efficient products for pool owners looking to "Go Green". According to their website this, "North Carolina based swimming pool design and construction company encourages the use of environmentally responsible swimming pool products by incorporating healthy, resourceful, energy-efficient products, materials, and methods in the design and construction of swimming pools"

Going Green with your swimming pool is not just a hot trend, it will save you money. They offer products such as the Pentair Intelliflow Variable Frequency Swimming Pool Pump that will reduce energy costs by at least 60% utilizing its internal electrical design system and self-adjusting pool filter run-times year-round. Pool Owners' can become less dependent on high output products using outdated technologies. They can upgrade to more environmentally friendly, cost saving, "Green" products.

According to Frank Bowman Designs, "Almost every manufacturer has developed enhanced products with low Amperage or Solar pumps to decrease energy bills from homeowners and to increase the value of homes living green,"

Even if you don't live in Raleigh, North Carolina you can check out their website for updated consumer information and Energy Saving tips for pool owners.

With Americans jumping on the green living bandwagon they are preparing to see a huge increase in consumer actions searching for Energy related Pool products.
