Will having a inground pool make the backyard/back porch cooler? Im thinking when the sun sets? I live in Az?
Question:I have a house with no pool at the moment and I was just out back at around 7pm and it was still kinda hot where you dont even wanna be out there. We are planing on buying a house and I really want an inground pool. Will this make it cooler in the backyard? I notice when I drive by water or a lake it seems so much cooler.
Anyone notice this from their porch by the pool?
Answers:
No not unless you jump in. I never noticed any difference. In Az for 12 years now you can try a mist system/
The coolness you notice is from the wind blowing over a large body of water. This would be a much larger body of water than could be held in any swimming pool. Planting trees would provide more of a cooling effect. We have a large pool and the only coolness we experience is from getting in it.
