In
addition to being beautiful and luxurious, fiberglass pools by
San Juan Products save homeowners time and money over the life
of the pool, with the major savings coming in reduced outlays
for maintenance, pool chemicals and electricity. Homeowners who
choose a San Juan pool will save as much as 70 percent on
chemicals and 30 percent on electricity costs.
Due to their sturdy
fiberglass construction, San Juan fiberglass pools never need to be
resurfaced. By contrast, a typical concrete pool will require
periodic resurfacing, meaning extra outlays of cash for many years
to come. The bottom line is that while a San Juan fiberglass pool
may cost more up front than a vinyl or cement pool, homeowners will
more than make up the difference in savings over the life of the
pool.
The smooth fiberglass surface of all San Juan pools makes
them easier and less expensive to maintain than concrete. They
also never require acid washing, and unlike concrete pools with
their porous surface, offer no haven for algae and other
undesirable elements. This means fiberglass pools are also
healthier than concrete pools.
The gel-coat surface of a San Juan pool is a polyester
MPG-Isothalic resin with color pigment mixed in. This gel-coat
is chemically bonded to the fiberglass and becomes an integral
part of the pool. The 30-32 mill gel-coat finish is nonporous,
chemically inert, and extremely resistant to acids and
oxidizers. Algae cannot penetrate the finish, and any stains
which may form on the gel-coat can easily be removed by adding a
stain remover to the pool water.
