In a solar pool-heating system, the existing pool filtration system pumps pool water through the solar collector, and the collected heat is transferred directly to the pool water. Solar pool-heating collectors maintain the temperature of the pool 10ºC to 15ºC above ambient temperature.
Our Swimming Pool system is designed to heat your pool by harnessing the suns natural energy in a very cost effective manner.
The Solar Panels the size of which would be approximately 30% of the surface area of the pool can be installed in the most sympathetic area, either roof mounted, on a wall or in the pool area. The panels are connected through a sealed circuit to a specially designed chlorine resistant pool heat exchanger.
In general the swimming season is lengthened allowing owners to use the pool in colder weather. A pool cover significantly reduces heat loss in a cost-effective manner and helps maintain warm temperatures for long periods.
How a Solar Pool Heating System works
Sunpower Solar's pool heaters will turn your cold swimming pool into a warm oasis of fun. Our pool heating systems will keep your pool warm even when it is cool outside.
Bright sunshine is not needed to heat your pool. The solar system works even on a hazy or cloudy day when it finds the right amount of solar energy. Your pool pump sends pool water to the solar collectors. As the water flows through the collectors the sun's energy heats it. The solar-heated water then flows back to your pool. This simple cycle continues until your pool reaches your desired temperature.
Savings
The cost of installing a solar pool heating system for larger in-ground pools may equal those of other heaters. However, they return the cost difference in fuel savings in the first year or two. You will always save money when you heat your pool with solar energy.
Reliability and safety
Solar systems just keep heating your pool quietly, safely and reliably, year after year.
Protect the environment
You can enjoy the comfort of your solar heated pool, knowing that you are using an environmentally friendly energy source, while you conserve our natural resources.
