Can I Upgrade The Swimming Pool Of My Rental Property?

by Anton Leinonen

If you rent a property that comes with a swimming pool, you might assume that any repairs made to the swimming pool are the responsibility of the owner of the pool. However, certain types of repairs might actually be considered to be "non-structural" and any repairs would be your responsibility. Fortunately, if you need to have non-structural repairs made, you do not necessarily have to perform these repairs yourself because you can hire a non-structural pool contractor to perform the repairs for you.

What is Considered a Non-Structural Pool Improvement?  

Any repairs that you would have to do to your swimming pool would not actually be a part of the building. For example, the walls of the swimming pool would be considered structural but the filtration system may not be considered a part of the structure. 

What Can I Upgrade with My Swimming Pool?

A pool contractor will be able to upgrade and replace the equipment used by your swimming pool. This can include the pumps, filtration system, and UV water treatment system. You might want to replace your existing pumps with a newer type of pump that is more efficient. Better equipment will be able to keep your swimming pool clean and will also make it less expensive to maintain your swimming pool. 

How Can I Make My Pool More Efficient?

A common swimming pool improvement is to add a solar panel to the pool so you can take advantage of non-renewable energy. This can be used to heat your pool so you can still enjoy your swimming pool even when it's cold out. However, unlike when using electricity from the power grid, which causes your electric bill to go up, the solar panels will allow you to keep your pool warm virtually free.

Covering your pool when it is not in use is always a good idea. However, you might want to add a functional swimming pool cover that will keep your pool completely sealed and will also be automated. With the press of the button, you can have the cover extend over your swimming pool or retract when it's time to care for your pool or go swimming.

Who Should I Hire for Non-Structural Pool Upgrades?

A professional non-structural pool contractor will examine your swimming pool and will then determine the best way to go for upgrading your pool. The contractor will then add improvements to the pool as efficiently as possible while working around your schedule.

The only thing that was missing from the home that my husband and I bought was a swimming pool. I knew that I wanted one before we sold our last house and purchased the new one. Not having a pool wasn't enough to keep me from buying the new house because I knew I could customize a pool to be installed. If you are considering having a custom-built pool installed on your property, this blog can give you some ideas that will help you create a wonderful setting for you, your family and all of your friends to enjoy.
