10 Reasons You're Better Off With a Champagne Pool

 |
From the time when Peter Manley first opened the doors, the goal has always been to provide the highest quality pool possible to fit within a customer’s budget. Compromising on quality or ease of maintenance is never an option. That's why Champagne Pools includes the following items as standard features on all their pools:
Efficient pool plumbing - Pool piping can comprise 20% of total electricity use.
- High efficiency oversized-filters keep your pool cleaner, require less frequent cleaning, and use less electricity. Smaller filters make the pump work harder, use more electricity, and suffer more wear and tear. Where most other builders use a 100 ft.³ to 250 ft.³ filter, we use a minimum of 340 ft.³ filtration system on every pool.
- Smaller pipe is cheaper for the builder, but will cost you more in the long run. Where most builders will run 1 1/2 inch plumbing, we use a minimum 2’’ plumbing on return sides, and 2 1/2’’ on all suction sides.
- Our new energy efficient multispeed pumps save as much a 70% compared to the typical 1.5 hp single-speed pumps that most pool builders use.
- Our "Passive solar heating” circulation system provides better heat distribution and chemical distribution. This is built-in at the time of construction at no extra cost to the homeowner.
In-floor cleaning and many other low maintenance features are available on all our pool designs.
