BG Pools Promotes Summer-Ready Outdoor Living in UAE

13 May 2026 CW Team

BG Pools + Landscape is promoting year-round outdoor living in the UAE through advanced pool technology, climate-adaptive landscaping and shaded architectural design. The company says outdoor areas, once largely used during winter, can now be planned for comfort even during the peak summer months, when temperatures often exceed 40°C.

The company uses pool chilling systems to maintain comfortable swimming temperatures during summer. It also incorporates climate-adaptive planting that retains visual appeal throughout the year while reducing irrigation needs. According to Khalil Zayat, Director of Business Development, clients are increasingly asking how outdoor spaces can be used across all 12 months rather than only in winter.

BG Pools + Landscape also highlighted sustainability as a core part of luxury outdoor design. The company said intelligent outdoor spaces are becoming more resource-efficient, with homeowners seeking designs that balance comfort, aesthetics and responsible water use.

With summer approaching, BG Group has encouraged homeowners to plan outdoor renovations early, as integrated outdoor living projects typically take three to six months from concept to completion.
