Swimming pool floats come in a variety of sizes, shapes and materials. Regardless of this variety, the floats are all soft, light in weight and in need of drying after use.
One type of pool float is inflated with air. This type of float includes mattresses, chairs, etc. Another type of pool float is made of foam. The higher quality foam floats have a rubber or plastic coating over the foam.
Equipment owners typically store the floats in a dry place, out of the pool, between uses. This extends the useable life of the floats, which can be shortened due to exposure to pool chemicals and sunlight. Most equipment owners merely stack the floats one on top of another. Foam floats stowed in this manner bend or become indented. The bends and indentations may remain in the float for long periods of time when the float is removed from storage.
Also, stacking the floats may not allow the floats to adequately dry, leading to mildew problems.
Thus, what is needed is a low cost rack for storing pool floats when the floats are not in use.
