Solar Pool Heating
Solar pool heaters can extend the swimming season with no additional operating costs after they are installed. When properly sized they can raise a pool's temperature 10 to 15 degrees F. The system that we offer has an expected lifetime of at least 20 years, and the parts come with a pro-rated warranty of 18 years. The product is a flexible EPDM rubber mat material with small tubes formed inside it, and is extremely durable, and can be easily repaired if perforated by rodents, etc. It is designed to be installed on a sloped surface or on a roof, and uses the existing pool pump to circulate pool water to be heated through the solar collector. All of the parts used in the system are replaceable.
This product has been made in North America since 1979, and is a modular design so that additional panels can be added later if required. The system has an expected lifetime of at least 20 years, and the parts come with a pro-rated warranty of 18 years. It is friendly to the roof, and tends to increase the lifetime of asphalt shingles underneath the pool heater's collectors.
For an outdoor pool the size of the recommended collector area should be 50 to 75% of the surface area of the pool to be heated.
This is mounted on a purpose built sloped surface instead of on a roof. The panels are modular, and are 1' wide and either 8, 10 or 12' long. The long direction runs down the slope of the roof. Panels can be assembled into assemblies as wide as required.
We also offer the Enersol pool heaters as a kit for a DIY installation, if your prefer to minimize your costs. If you run into problems, we will provide consulting services at an hourly rate to assist you if required. A DIY install can typically be done in a weekend.
Pool Pumps
Pool pumps run for many hours a day all through the pool season, to turn over the pool water for filtration. This can result in a significant electricity cost. We can measure the power used by your pool pump,and can calculate the electricity costs for a season of use. Or you can call us, and we can tell you how to measure your pool pump's actual power usage, and then we can calculate the electricity used per year. Our line of pool pumps are designed specifically to be powered by three 250W solar electric panels. Our solar powered pool pump can eliminate that cost, for a one time investment.
