Solar Pool Heaters

Swimming Pool Solar Heating

Solar pool heaters help heat your pool water using clean, renewable energy from the sun. Solar powered heaters can lower your heating costs while also being better for the environment than gas or electric heaters.

Solar Dome Pool Heaters 

 

A solar pool heater system uses solar panels to collect energy from the sun. That energy is then used to heat the pool via a solar heating system, usually consisting of dome shaped units. 

Solar powered heating systems are made up of a solar collector, a filter, a pump and a control valve. The water from the pool is pumped through the filter to remove debris and is then passed through the solar collector, where it is heated before being returned to the pool.

What Solar Pool Heater Do I Need? 

 

The type or number of solar heaters you’ll need will depend on a couple of things: 

  • - Pool size
  • - Average regional temperatures
  • - Desired pool temperature
  • - Site’s solar resource
  • - Type of pool cover that’s used 

Note that the efficiency of solar heaters will be linked to the climate conditions where they’re installed – if you have less sunlight, they won’t be able to heat your pool as much. 

For this reason, you may choose to use your solar water heater in tandem with another heating system, like one of our swimming pool heat pumps, which offers another cost-effective and energy-efficient solution. 

Above Ground Pool Solar Heaters 

 

Our solar pods are ideal for smaller pools like above-ground pools as you will need fewer units to help heat your water sufficiently. Solar dome heaters can simply sit on your poolside and help you start saving on your heating bills!
