The Best Above-Ground Pool Accessories

Summers are for taking advantage of every single minute in your pool. Indeed, all pool owners wake up and look outside in order to see if they can take a dip in their clear blue waters! But if you’re a pool owner, you know that there’s much more to owning a pool than simply swimming in it. That’s why, below you’ll find the best above-ground pool accessories so that you can take your enjoyment to the next level this summer. 

A Retractable Cover Float

As enjoyable as summer may be, it’s still important to protect yourself from the sun’s harmful rays, and sometimes sunscreen just doesn’t cut it. We’ve all lost track of our time in the sun, forgotten to reapply, and turned into a human-sized lobster. That’s where a retractable cover floaty comes in! Not only will you be able to enjoy lounging around on your pool floaty all day long, but will also be able to ensure that you won’t be harming your skin while doing so! The fact that they’re super cute and comfortable are a definite bonus. Some of them even have cup-holders so that you never need to worry about having to get up to hydrate yourself! 

A Waterproof Bluetooth speaker

Nothing feels better than relaxing in your personal oasis and listening to your favourites tunes. Since it’s extremely unwise to bring any old speaker near your pool, that’s exactly why you should invest in a waterproof bluetooth speaker! Though it may sound fancy, you don’t have to worry about the price tag! Many waterproof bluetooth speakers are actually extremely affordable. And don’t be fooled by their size — they still pack a punch and are easy to carry around with you! 

Above Ground Pool Lights

Pool lights are an amazing option for above ground pools! Not only do they spruce up your backyard, but they can also allow you to enjoy your time in the pool after the sun sets. They’re especially useful if you’re the kind of person that loves to have pool parties that last until the early hours in the morning! You can even get lights that change colours for extra pizzaz. When it comes to purchasing pool lights, the best decision you could make is to go with LED lights. Led lights are ideal because they’re easy to install, can last up to 25% longer than incandescent lights, and they use much less energy. Magnetic led lights for your above-ground pool are pretty easy to find, but if you’d rather a more permanent fixture, then halogen light kits are the perfect choice for you!

Above Ground Pool Cover

Although this may seem like an evident must when it comes to pool accessories, many overlook it. Big mistake! Choosing the right pair can be a little confusing since there are different types of covers. There are safety covers made of heavy-duty polyethylene to prevent accidents from occurring, solar covers to prevent water evaporation, basic covers for keeping debris from entering your pool and messing with its chemistry, and there are winter pool covers. Like safety covers, winter covers will also prevent accidents, but they’re also a bit more durable so that they can withstand the weight of heavy snowfalls. 

Above Ground Pool Skimmer

Above ground pool skimmers are also an important accessory to have in order to keep you pool clean. They’ll also be useful in terms of keeping you from having to vacuum your pool as often. When it comes to above ground pool skimmers, your best bet is to go with an aluminum one since they’re more durable. 

Of course, pool accessories mean nothing if your pool isn’t well taken care of. If you would like to enjoy your pool to the fullest, and aren’t sure how to maintain your pool properly, don’t hesitate to contact a pool expert. Your pool expert can either do some weekly maintenance for you, or can teach you everything you need to know in order to keep your waters crystal clear!
