Cypress, TX pool build re: water color

12 years ago

Hello - My husband and I just signed today for our first pool to be built. My question is regarding water color. I tend to like the "deep blue" color as opposed to the bright turquoise or light blue. We will have lunaquartz as the bottom of our pool. Any suggestions as to color? Thanks.

I like the look of the deep blue as well, but went lighter on my last pool and will do so on my new one too. Several of my friends with the darker colors find that the water temp gets pretty warm. Even with a light bottom given the temps we had last summer my pool wasn't what I would call refreshing by the time August rolled around, but thats the exception to the rule.
