How can I prevent water from evaporating from the pool?

• <div><p>Evaporation causes up to 70% of outdoor pools’ energy losses, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. While you can’t completely prevent evaporation, different types of pool covers can help a lot. Pool enclosures, however, don’t do much to stop evaporation—and the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-build-swimming-pool-enclosure.htm">cost to build a pool enclosure</a> likely won’t tempt you to try.</p></div>

Q: Can I walk on top of my pool enclosure?

• <div><p>You should always check your user's manual for the weight capacity of your pool enclosure. In most cases, it is not safe for someone to walk on their enclosure. Professional pool installers will have more experience in repairing enclosure roofs and how to scale them without risking injury.</p></div>

Q: What is the safest pool fence?

• <div><p>The safest pool fence depends on what you&rsquo;re trying to protect against. If you&rsquo;re concerned about children and pets, a fence with gaps between or under the material isn&rsquo;t advisable, as they could get through it. Mesh fences tend to reach the height requirements needed for pool fence safety, although they are not the most durable. Solid fence types, such as wood, concrete, or stone have the best chance of protecting the surface area around a pool, so long as they are high enough to discourage anything, or anyone, from climbing over them. </p></div>

Q: How long do pool enclosures last?

• <div><p>Your pool enclosure&rsquo;s lifespan will depend on the type and materials, but on average, you can expect it to last <b>10 to 15 years</b>. The climate and level of maintenance will also affect how long your pool enclosure lasts. </p><p>If you&rsquo;re unsure of how your pool is doing in general, you can always get a pool inspection to make sure everything&rsquo;s running smoothly.</p></div>

Q: Can a retaining wall be a pool fence?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-retaining-wall.htm">retaining wall</a> can only function as a fence if it&rsquo;s high enough on all sides to prevent someone from accidentally falling into the pool. However, most retaining walls retain dirt, which means their purpose is not related to safety. There would need to be nothing on the other side of the wall for it to be considered a fence, but in that case, it wouldn&rsquo;t retain anything and would cease to be a retaining wall. </p></div>

The experience was terrible. The product installed was not what was ordered and they refused to do anything about it. They either made a mistake and refused to fix it -or- it was bait and switch. Long story short, this company should be avoided at all costs.

Everything was as you would expect from a Lowes. They loaded the washing machine up. They offered delivery and installation, but we needed it that day so we took a trailer up there and got it ourselves because it would have been another day to get it.
