When Is The Best Time To Buy A Pool?
Autumn
Winter
The same goes with a winter installation, generally sales are quieter so you won’t have to be part of the scrum at a showroom. It means there’s more flexibility with a timescale to have it installed as well.
You’re likely to find a good deal as price increases usually take place at the start of the new summer season.
Spring
Once spring has sprung, everyone’s thoughts turn towards the fun to be had in their own personal family swimming pool, the longer evenings are just crying out for poolside barbecues and get-togethers. A pool is one of the best ways to bring a family together.
If you buy in spring, it gives you time for the water to warm up as outside temperatures start to rise and you’ll have many months of use before winter sets in.
Summer
The best time for swimming is of course the worst time to install a pool as everyone wants one. Those who already have a pool are having pool parties and enjoying the water, and pool suppliers can be kept busy meeting demand and there may even be a waiting list to get it installed.
The children can cool down in the pool over the long school holidays. Once they’re back in the classroom in February, they’ll look forward to a refreshing dip after a school day has finisheed.
Should I Wait?
It’s your choice when to buy. For some people, the thought of installing a pool and then having to wait half a year before they can take the plunge, is just too much to bear. Others who are more patient may well believe that the wait is worth it if they can save money. Remember you may not necessarily get the best bargain out of season.
Be mindful that you may have to wait to have one installed as slots can book up quickly, so it pays to start planning your new pool as early as possible. Whatever season you build in, once your pool is built and ready to use, you’ll wish you’d jumped in years ago.
