When it comes to creating the perfect poolside oasis, every detail matters. From the lounge chairs to the landscaping, every element plays a role in crafting a relaxing and inviting space. One often overlooked aspect of poolside design is the ground flooring. While traditional options like concrete, stone, or natural grass may seem like the go-to choices, there’s one option that stands out above the rest: artificial grass.
Why Artificial Grass Around the Pool is Great
Artificial grass offers numerous benefits that make it the perfect choice for poolside landscaping. At Smart Turf, we’ve taken artificial grass to the next level with integrated Microban technology. This innovative feature inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew, while also reducing odors by an impressive 99%. This exclusive feature is important for areas that may be exposed to moisture often. With Smart Turf artificial grass, you can enjoy a clean and hygienic pool area without the hassle of constant maintenance.
Aside from its hygienic benefits, artificial grass offers several other advantages that make it the ideal choice for poolside landscaping. Unlike natural grass, artificial grass stays lush and green year-round, regardless of weather conditions. This means no more muddy patches or tracking mud into the pool! Additionally, artificial grass is very comfortable underfoot, providing a comfortable and safe surface for lounging and playing.
Why Microban Antimicrobial Technology Matters
When it comes to your poolside oasis, cleanliness is key. That’s why Smart Turf with integrated Microban antimicrobial technology is so important. This innovative feature inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew, and reduces odors by 99%, keeping your pool area clean and hygienic for you and your family to enjoy.
With Microban technology, you can rest assured that your artificial grass is providing an extra layer of protection against harmful bacteria and odors. This is especially reassuring around the pool area, where friends and family may be lounging and enjoying the sun.
Artificial Grass is a Stain-Free Solution
Pools can easily stain, especially new builds. From rust and mineral stains to algae and chemical discoloration, maintaining a stain-free pool area can be a challenge. Traditional ground flooring options like concrete, stone, or natural grass are all susceptible to staining, which can detract from the beauty of your poolside oasis.
Artificial grass, on the other hand, provides a stain-free solution that will keep your pool area looking pristine year-round. Unlike natural grass, artificial grass will not absorb water, chemicals, or other substances that can cause stains. This means you can enjoy a clean and beautiful pool area without worrying about unsightly stains ruining the look of your landscaping.
Other Ground Flooring Options Around the Pool
While artificial grass is an excellent choice for poolside landscaping, there are other ground flooring options to consider as well. Here are a few alternatives to artificial grass:
• Concrete: Concrete is a popular choice for pool decks due to its durability and low maintenance. However, concrete can become hot to the touch in direct sunlight and may crack over time.
• Stone Pavers: Stone pavers offer a natural and elegant look that complements any pool design. However, they can be expensive to install and may require regular maintenance to prevent weeds and shifting.
• Wood Decking: Wood decking provides a warm and inviting look that adds a touch of luxury to your pool area. However, wood decking requires regular sealing and maintenance to prevent warping, rotting, and splintering.
While these options may have their advantages, artificial grass offers a winning combination of durability, low maintenance, and aesthetic appeal that is hard to beat.
