			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Adding a water feature to your pool is just one of the ways that you can enhance the look and sound of your pool. There are several different types of water features that can easily be added to your already existing pool and at the same time be affordable. One of them is a sheer descent; a sheer descent is designed to go into a raised area of a pool to give a nice sharp sheet of water that flows into the pool. There are several types of sheer descents that can be used whether your raised area is straight or curved there is a sheer designed to fit every pool. Another water feature that you can add to your pool is a wok pot, these wok pots are designed to sit right on your deck and have an opening that spills into the pool. The wok pots also come in several colors and designs. There is stone, concrete and even brass wok pots available and they also come in different shapes as well. Another fun option while remodeling your pool deck is by adding deck jets to the pool. Deck jets spray a stream of water out of your deck right into your pool. Each of these added features also helps to aerate your pool to help cool the water on those hot Arizona summer days. Please call and make an appointment with one of our designers to decide what water feature would best fit your swimming pool needs. 480-539-7700.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When remodeling a pool there are several options for decking; how is the best way for you to choose the best decking for you and your family?</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Budget:</span></strong> Decking has a wide variety of options to choose from in any budget. Decking ranges from your lesser expensive deck as an acrylic lace deck to the higher end natural stone decking. Please meet with one of our estimators to get pricing on what best fits your budget.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Colors:</span></strong> When choosing a color for your decking you always want to keep in mind that the darker the color of the deck the hotter the deck is going to be on you, your child’s and your pets feet. The lighter the deck is always better for heat resistance. Although keep in mind that being in Arizona there is no deck that is actually cool to the touch in the summer, the term cool or kool deck received it’s name only because the pockets on the surface of the deck are there to help your feet because the whole pad of your feet is not touching the deck all at once, however unfortunately in the heat of the summer there is no deck that will be cool unless it is wet, so don’t let the name cool or kool deck fool you.</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Elevations:</span></strong> When choosing to remodel the decking on your pool and you are determining if you want to change from a poured concrete deck to a natural stone deck, one thing to keep in mind is that it is not always possible to just lay stone or tile on top of the existing concrete. Our designers are trained to look at what you have existing in your yard to give you the options of what will work best and the most cost effective way to convert your current deck into the decking of your choice.</p>
<p>CDC Pools, Inc. is here to help you make your decision as easy and affordable as possible. Please feel free to contact our office to make an appointment for one of our estimators to come visit you for an in home estimate. 480-539-7700.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Each year we receive several phone calls about concerned pool owners thinking that their pool may be losing water and may have a leak. We would like to explain to you step by step one way that you can check to see if your pool is losing water; a “Bucket Test” is the easiest way to determine if your pool is losing water or not.</p>
<p>Step 1:  Start by turning off your pool equipment and if you have an automatic water leveler turn that off as well.</p>
<p>Step 2:  Get an empty bucket and fill it with about 6” of water and take a colored marker and mark the inside of the bucket where the water level is. Leave the bucket out near the pool where it is getting ample sunlight as your swimming pool.</p>
<p>Step 3:  Inside of your skimmer mark with a marker where the water level is at.</p>
<p>Step 4:  Wait 24 hours and with a ruler measure the amount of water the bucket has lost as well as measure the amount of water the pool has lost. If the pool and the bucket both have lost close to the same amount of water your pool does not have a leak. However if your pool has lost significantly more water than the bucket your pool is losing water and you should either have a leak detection company come out to determine where the leak is or you can contact CDC Pools, Inc. to come and evaluate your pool.</p>
<p>Step 5: Turn your pool equipment and automatic water leveler back on after the test is completed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Customers ask us “How can I save money when we remodel our pool?”</p>
<div class="no-border"><img class="alignleft" title="variablespeedpump" src="http://www.redoyourpool.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/variablespeedpump-300x113.png" alt="variablespeedpump" width="300" height="113" /></div>
<p>One  way customers are saving money — on average $500 per year — is by  installing a new, energy-efficient variable speed pool pump.  <strong>This will save you money, year in and year out, for two reasons:</strong></p>
<p>1.  Most pumps we see installed in back yards are larger than the  pool requires.  It’s like paying to operate a V8 engine in a car that  only needs a four cylnders — it costs you too much money!</p>
<p>2.  These new, energy-efficient pumps operate at variable speeds: one  speed to run your pool cleaner; and a lower speed to circulate your  water.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WFOcRDCdus0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WFOcRDCdus0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>There are <strong>two more benefits</strong> to a variable speed pump:</p>
<p>3.  Cleaner, clearer water.  You’ll push water through your filter  more slowly at the lower speed.  This improves filtration. Better  filtration equals cleaner, clearer water.</p>
<p>4.  Circulating your water at a lower speed means you can run the  pump longer and still save a substantial amount money.  Better  circulation means better suspension of chemicals in your water (when a  pool sits idle in the sun you lose your chemical balance faster).</p>
<p>Lastly, if you are an APS customer, <strong>APS will give you a $200 rebate for installing a variable speed pump</strong>.   A $500 per year savings, clearer water, more efficient chemical use and  a $200 rebate!  Make sure you ask your CDC Pool Specialist for all the  details.</p>
<p>You can even calculate your own savings on Pentair’s cost savings calculator.  <a href="http://www.pentairpool.com/pool_pump_calc/index.htm" target="_blank"><strong>Click here</strong></a>.</p>
