Solar Swimming Pools

Solar swimming pools are growing in popularity throughout the United States. In the desert southwest we don't typically heat our swimming pools. We usually get about six months of warm weather. It is extremely expensive to heat a swimming pool. However,with a solar panels, we can add another 6 months to our swimming season. This is a win win proposition.

What is a solar pool heater?

A solar pool heater uses your pool's filter pump to make water flow through solar collectors where it is heated to the desired temperature and then directly returned to your pool. There is an automatic control that senses any change in sunlight or water temperature and this information is passed on to the control valve.

Is this expensive?

The initial cost of putting in a solar pool heater is about the same as installing an electric heat pump. And of course there are no operating costs as the Sun is free. .

One of the benefits is that having a solar swimming pool heater is that it can increase the value of your home.

Avoid the mistake of spending money on expensive equipment that is not designed for swimming pool heating. Unglazed collectors that are less expensive can heat your pool best.

The biggest problem with using water solar panels is leaking and detieriation of the panels.

Consider using electric to heat the pool.

Residential solar photovoltaic applications now not only help us become energy independent but also make economic sense. With utility companies giving 30% plus of the cost of a solar system the Federal Government and the State of Arizona giving tax credits over 20% plus it is the perfect time to invest in the future. We have competitive financing available which makes going solar easy and profitable plus we have designs that make going solar fun.
