Solar Pool Heating

Summer fun in the pool is a great way to spend time with family and friends, and homeowners can extend the use of their pools by up to six months simply by utilising the sun’s free power. Solar pool heating systems are energy-efficient and cost efficient. Our locally made solar pool heating collector allows families to enjoy their pool longer each year, and it increases the overall value of their home.

Solar heating systems significantly decrease the cost of pool warming and typically have low annual operating costs. They consist of a solar collector, a filter, a pump and flow control valve. A solar heating system can also be used to cool a pool in hot environs by circulating the water during the cooler evening hours.

Installation of a solar pool heating system requires the expertise of a professional who will be able to evaluate the site, determine the right size system for the pool, and calculate the roof positioning and orientation of the solar collector. The experts at Green Star Solutions are cognisant of the local laws, ordinances and permit requirements.

Installers must consider a variety of parameters when establishing a system. Conditions that affect the size of the solar heating system depend on the size of the pool and its directional orientation for the solar collector. The desired temperature of the pool, the average length of the swimming season and regional temperatures are all factors. The use of a pool cover will also affect the efficiency and energy costs of the system.

If maintained properly, a solar heating system for a swimming pool can have a life expectancy of 10 to 20 years. Collectors require little maintenance, provided the pool’s filtering system and chemical balance are checked and monitored regularly. Solar collectors can be mounted on your rooftop but may need to be cleaned in environments that receive little rainfall to rinse panels clean.

A swimming pool is a major cost, and a solar heating system takes advantage of the free power provided by the sun. The heating systems at Green Star Solutions allow families to enjoy their investment longer each year. Pools are a popular source of entertainment, exercise, and relaxation. Our solar heating system at Green Star Solutions allows families to enjoy all the benefits of their pool long after friends have packed theirs up for the year.
