The goal of green design is to create the most energy efficient swimming pools possible. Often called “sustainable design”, it is a comprehensive and integrated approach to the art of designing and operating swimming pools. It ensures conservation of energy, water and natural resources. It promotes a healthier environment, which improves the quality of life.
We have an obligation to design and engineer our projects responsibly. We take the environmental and energy impact of our work very seriously and strive to be leaders in the area of energy efficient design. Both new and existing swimming pools can be made to meet energy efficien. We are members of the USGBC LEED Green Building Program and are commited to being part of the solution.
Solar Pool Heating
Solar heating drastically reduces pool operatingcosts by lowering electricity usage. By capturing the energy from the sun, heating your pool becomes cost-free and temperate for most of the year. For year round comfort, hybrid systems consisting of solar and electrical heaters may be implimented still offering a drastic savings over electrical heaters alone. Solar pool heating maximizes pool usage while minimizing ecological impact and as a USGBC Member, Elite-Weiler reccomends them.
Salt Cholrine Generator
Salt Chlorine Generators use 100 percent natural salt to sanitize your swimming pool. Eliminating the need to add toxic chlorine altogether, these generators make your pool eco-friendly without lowering the quality of your swimming pool experience and are virtually maintenance free.
Variable Speed Pump
Programmable pump uses smallest amount of electricity necessary to circulate pool water, thereby reducing electrical operating costs by as much as 90%. To maintain a healthy pool environment, your pool must circulate its water constantly, with a variable speed pump, the water will circulate as needed and no more.
Pool Equipment Timers
Pool equipment timers can be added to all autonomous features of your pool and lower electrical operating costs by reducing the time equipment stays turned on unnessicarily.
Swimming Pool Covers
Retains heat in pool water, thus reducing use of pool heater as well as lowering evaporation rate. Reduces electrical energy and the use of additional chemicals.
