What good is owning a pool if you don’t have all the fun accessories to enjoy? Are some pool accessories more essential than others? We’ve put together a list of accessories every pool owner needs to buy so that you’re ready for that next pool day.
Water Toys
What pool is complete without water toys every member of the family can enjoy? There is such a variety of toys on the market that you’re sure to find something for everyone. The list includes:
Water blasters
Pool noodles
Pool loungers and rafts
Pool rockets and rings for diving
Any inflatables
Water volleyballs and beach balls
Don’t forget about the pets, too! Grab them their own pet life vests if they need them and a few frisbees for your dogs to enjoy fetching while they leap into the water.
Pool Cover
A pool cover is an essential accessory every pool owner needs to buy. It will keep the debris from dirtying the water and clogging the drain. It will also prevent wild critters like rabbits, squirrels, birds, snakes, frogs, toads, and other animals from entering your pool. A pool cover could also save the life of a child or anyone else who accidentally falls into the pool unsupervised. Ensure you’re securely fastening the cover; otherwise, it could become a hazard.
Towel Rack
This item seems obvious, but most pool owners don’t think about it until they need one. It’s also nice to have when you’re having a party. You’ll have a designated space for all the towels, and people will know whose towel is whose.
Waterfall
If you want to up the luxury factor with your pool, install a water feature. Waterfalls provide a soothing and serene quality to your swimming pool to help relax you on the busiest of days. They make you feel like you’re on vacation right in your backyard. Waterfalls are also beneficial because they help circulate the water, among other reasons.
Fire Pit
A fire pit is another accessory every pool owner needs to buy that will create a luxurious, resort-like experience in your backyard. It’s perfect for those chilly evenings after a lazy day of relaxing in the pool. Roast some s’mores and gather all your friends around the fire.
