The main benefit from the low profile enclosures is that they are more discreet, both when opened and closed. The other major benefit of the low profile enclosures is that the heat retention is far more effective, as there is less air space between the pool and enclosure roof. This is also of greater benefit when it comes to heating the pool through sunlight, as more heat energy is used to heat the water, not the air space.

With regards to the standard height enclosures, the benefits here are more about actually creating a room space where you can actually walk around the pool, yet still keep under cover.

Research What to search for?

So having considered what's important regarding your pool usage, and enclosure design style, it's time to do a little research on what's available. Apart from just going to the search engines for answers, it's always worthwhile getting a view point from either your pool installer, or maintenance company, as well as asking around any friends who may have also considered an enclosure. When looking on Google or Yahoo consider being specific with your search term, such as 'low profile swimming pool enclosures'

Budget You don't need to spend over £10,000

Doing research on the internet is great, however you need to have a budget in mind before going too far. Unfortunately not many companies publish their prices on their web sites so gauging how much enclosures cost can be quite difficult. In defining your budget, you should consider the value an enclosure will give you, both in terms of cost savings, but also in terms of being able to use your pool for a far greater proportion of the year.

Swimming pool enclosures can in fact vary in price considerably. Until more recently having a pool enclosure was very expensive, requiring a budget of £20,000-£30,000, however the low profile enclosures now on the market have changed this picture considerably and can be purchased from as little as £3,000-£6,000.

Buy direct Self assembly can save you even more!

The internet has brought a far greater choice to the pool owner, in terms of pool enclosure design and price. And, rather than buying through a pool shop or reseller, who will add their margin to the cost, you can now in some instances, buy enclosures direct from the manufacturer, and save a considerable amount of money. In addition to this, if you really want to get the best value, consider buying a self assembly enclosure. These are specially designed products, which can easily be put together is less than a day by a couple of people, and are as good as anything which requires you to buy an installation service, which can add considerably to the overall price.
