Your main pool equipment is best stored in a pool house. This includes the vacuum, pool skimmer, cleaning brushes, chemicals, and testing kits for your pool. In our experience, adding shelves, wall hooks, and racks inside the pool house makes storage easier. Having these items in your pool house will allow you to organize your equipment better and protect it against damage from the New Jersey weather.
What to Store in a Pool House
Pool houses are extremely beneficial to pool owners, as they allow them to organize all their equipment. Having a pool house provides you with a space to store items, get changed, and entertain guests. These structures are especially important to have during the winter to store all pool items while it’s cold outside. Many New Jersey homeowners may be wondering what they should be storing in their pool house. Jed’s Sheds’ pool houses are made to enhance your backyard with their storage and entertainment abilities. Here is everything you need to know about what to store in a pool house.
Pool Equipment
Proper Chemical Storage
Chemicals need to be stored in a secure area. Store your chemicals separately from everything else, as they can react and cause fires or release hazardous gases. Keep them in their original containers away from any direct sunlight. For added protection, store them in designated chemical storage cabinets. When storing chemicals in a pool house, we recommend that the structure be cool, dry, and very well ventilated to ensure no hazardous fumes build up.
Pool Toys and Necessities
Toys
Toy storage is vital when you have a pool. Your pool noodles, floaties, sinking toys, and more should be stored in a designated area so your pool area does not get cluttered. When you leave your toys around, they can be a tripping hazard next to your pool. Your pool house is a great place to store your pool toys by allowing you to keep everything out of the way when not in use.
Necessities
Along with toys, there are a couple of items that are generally necessary when using your pool. Things like towels, sunscreen, hats, and flip-flops are commonly used at the pool and would be more conveniently stored in a pool house. We recommend storing these items in the pool house, so you don’t have to go back inside your home for sunscreen and towels. When kept in your pool house, your pool necessities are closer and easier to access.
Snacks and Drinks
Grill Equipment
A pool house is a great place to store your grill equipment. Many homeowners have grills on their pool patios for parties, and you can store all your grill supplies in your nearby pool house. You can designate a storage area for your grilling utensils, plates, and grill cleaner. If your grill is gas operated, we recommend storing extra gas outside or around your pool house. Gas for your grill is best stored outside, as vapor could escape the can, and the fumes could build up inside the pool house.
