Extend Your Swimming Season.

A swimming pool is an expensive investment, so why not get the most use out of it that you can. how about a relatively inexpensive option that can also save you money. Try a Solar Cover from Swim Clear Pool Supply.

Solar Pool Covers heat by day and insulate at night. If left on when the swimming pool is not in use during the day, the solar pool covers allow the sun's rays to pass through the bubbles to heat the pool water during the day. Leave the solar pool cover on at night and the bubbles act as an insulator minimizing heat loss. Our heavy mil solar pool covers use the sun's energy to give your heater time off and help slash fuel bills. They will raise your existing water temperature by 10 to 15 degrees while reducing evaporation of water and chemical consumption. Easily trim all of our solar pool covers with scissors to fit any pool.

Fall Approaches (Part 1)

Summer, believe it or not is almost here, which means one thing. Get ready for Fall and leaves. The next few posts will give you some great ideas to save you time and head ache this fall season.

In Texas, with the drought that has been going on, leaves are already falling. You might want to use that pool a few more times prior to covering but your skimmers and pump baskets are filling up. Replace those baskets with an Extra Heavy Duty Basket. The normal baskets you buy from the retail outlets are generic cheap baskets that the first time they over load they split sending a potential clog right through the pipes. These extra heavy duty baskets from valpak are designed to keep the leaves where they are caught. Check them out at Swim Clear Pool Supply.com

It's only July and my pool is as hot as a bath tub!



Hot dry weather turning that cool oasis in your back yard into an unconfortable out door bath tub? Swim Clear Pool Supply has the affordable answer.






The Glacier Pool Coolers are the perfect answer to uncomfortably warm swimming pools. Our swimming pool chiller is designed to solve the problem of hot pool water. The Glacier Pool Cooler is a solution that is affordable, easy to install, and inexpensive to operate. Our coolers are electric fan cooling systems that require no Freon or gas to operate.


Residential pools come in all shapes, sizes, and finishes. Glacier Pool Coolers has created a unit to fit your pool’s needs.


The ICE CUBE (GPC-23) is designed for small play pools less than 10,000 gallons.


The ICE BLOCK (GPC-25) will efficiently cool a pool up to 20,000 gallons.


The ICEBERG (GPC-210) can cool larger backyard pools up to 30,000 gallons.


However, if your pool has a pebble finish (any color), quartz, tile, or any dark colored plaster bottom and your pool volume is close to the gallon limits above, you should go up one size when choosing your unit.Not only will your pool be refreshing during those hot summer months but your pool water chemistry will be easier to maintain.A 10 degree drop in water temperature (95' to 85') can result in a savings of 20-25% on chemical consumption.

How your water chemisrty effects your pocket book.

See what happens to you when you do not check your water chemistry!!!



Normally the first thing that comes to mind with improperly balance swimming pool water is algae. And rightfully so, which obviously impacts the pocket book trying to treat the algae.




How much did you spend on the last algae treatment?




Improperly kept water chemistry can affect you another way a you may not even notice. As the heat rises so does the chemical usage but here is a helpful tip, have all the chemical levels tested and balance them. A good example of of how it can cost you is seen most often in salt water pools. Unlike using tablet chlorine which adds a "top off" of cyanuric acid (Stabilizer) with each tablet, in a salt unless you are subsidising with more stabilizer then the level will drop. With a lack of an adequate amount of stabilizer the chlorine in the swimming pool burns out faster thus the more need for chlorine, thus the burning sensation in the pocket book.
