Pool thermometers

• A digital pool thermometer detects the water temperature and displays it on a screen. As a general rule, these models include a submerged probe that continuously monitors the water temperature and shows both the current temperature and historical trend graphs. They are particularly useful for pools fitted with pool covers, as you can check the temperature even with the cover on.
• Analogue pool thermometers feature a mercury strip that expands or contracts according to the water temperature. These floating pool thermometers are the most commonly used because they tend to be cheaper and more familiar to most users.

Pool thermometer prices

Before choosing one type or another, it is important to consider the cost, as prices can vary considerably.

• Digital pool thermometer prices: you can find them from €20 to €100. The price varies depending on the extra features included in the chosen model.
• Analogue pool thermometer prices: these are much cheaper than digital ones; you can find them from approximately €2 to €30.

What are pool thermometers used for?

These devices do not only measure the water temperature — they also play a crucial role in the proper care and maintenance of your pool:

• Temperature control: They allow you to monitor the water temperature accurately, ensuring the pool is at a comfortable temperature for swimmers.
• Heating system adjustments: Thermometers are also useful tools for adjusting the pool heating system, as you can efficiently regulate the temperature and optimise the system performance.
• Compliance with safety regulations: In certain locations, safety regulations establish specific temperature ranges for pool water. Using a thermometer allows you to ensure compliance with these regulations, guaranteeing a safe swimming environment in line with local standards.
