re: Must have pool features

A pretty awesome feature some friends of ours have is a retractable cover. They press a button to open it in the morning or close it at night to keep the leaves/pollen out and to make sure the dogs don't fall in. It can also be automated to open and close on its own.

They also had some nice articulating umbrellas installed on the side. Can rotate the position and angle of the umbrella depending on where you want the shade.
