Pool Water Evaporation in Winter Florida

Thu, 28 Jan 2021 01:35:14 GMT

Why does my pool lose so much water during the winter season?

The temperatures overnight are between 40-50 Fahrenheit and the pool temperature is around 80-85 Fahrenheit. This strong difference will create heavy evaporation. You can avoid this by using a solar cover or any similar type of pool covers. The location of your pool also plays a big role as to how much water will evaporate over time. For example, the exposure of the pool. Is it more covered by shade and trees around your property or is it exposed directly by the sun light during the middle of the day? Below have 5 main reasons listed that could answer your question.

5 Main Reasons why your pool is losing so much water

Low rainfall
Stronger winds
Cold temperatures
Pool Heater running
Decrease in humidity

How much water should my pool be evaporating?

An estimated 2 inches per week is a normal evaporation size. This depends how large your pool is, pool Heater running, heavy winds or humid air.

You can use this calculator to estimate your evaporation. https://www.leaktools.com/evaporation-estimator.html

Is my pool affected by a leak? (Bucket test)

Any of the previous mentioned reasons should help in determining if your pool is leaking. The easiest way to test a leak is buy conducting a bucket-test. Place a bucket on your pool steps and use heavy stones to keep it down. Then mark your water level on the inside and outside of the bucket, this way you can easily check if the water level drops. After a day you should be able to tell a difference. In case the water level outside of the bucket is lower than on the inside the bucket, you have a leak.

How do I keep my pool water level up?

The pool service will arrive weekly at the property to readjust the water level of your pool. In case the water evopartion is stronger, we advise the guests to use the nearby hose and fill it up by themselves. We have installed mechanical pool hose timers. They work like an egg timer, simply twist the dial to around 30-45 minutes and let it run. After the time has expired, it will turn off automatically.

Is there any way to keep my pool heated?

You can keep your pool pump running all night by turning off its timer. Therefore the pool heater keeps running and pumps hot water into the pool. It may help to maintain the temperature, but it really depends on your size, you can't beat the physics. Another solution would be to get a pool cover, which you can roll down overnight and back up during the day. It's like a blanket for the pool.
