Good pool companies provide a range of comprehensive services. Whether you are looking at a new pool installation or want to upgrade your current pool, trusted pool companies have the solution. Here are some signs that it is time to upgrade your pool.

1. Structural Damage

According to the Improvement Center, an in-ground pool can last about 25 years, after which it will start to deteriorate. If your pool is showing signs of structural damage, it is a sign to consider upgrading your pool. If you are making repairs annually, upgrading or updating your pool can be more cost-effective than continuing to invest in repairs.

2. Outdated Features

Pools evolve, and newer pools have features better suited to today's lifestyle. If your pool lacks modern amenities like energy-efficient lighting, automated controls, or other wanted features, it may be time to consider an upgrade. Newer pools and pool equipment also deliver the added benefit of energy efficiency.

3. Outdated Look

If your pool is detracting from your outdoor aesthetic, it is a sign it's time for an upgrade. Newer pools are sleeker and more modern looking. They deliver an upgrade to the aesthetic of your outdoor living areas. A pool that looks outdated can detract from the overall appeal of your property.

4. Water Quality

If your old pool filtration system is not circulating the water properly, the water quality is poor. It can lead to cloudy water and an increased need for chemical treatments. This can make your pool more costly to operate. It can also mean you must dedicate more time to maintaining your pool. It's a sign you need an upgrade.

5. Safety Issues

While all the other signs on this list are valid signs you need a pool upgrade, there is no more important sign to look for than safety issues. If your pool doesn't have modern safety features like proper fencing, anti-entrapment drain covers, and slip-resistant surfaces, it is a safety risk. Safety upgrades will improve your pool and keep everyone safe.

Having a pool is a wonderful opportunity for gathering, exercise, and more. An upgraded pool will bring years of enjoyment. Learn more about all the upgrades you and your family can benefit from. Call today at LTC Construction, Inc.
