Sun Solar Pool Heating extends your swimming season
Whether or not you have an existing heater, you can keep your pool warmer and open longer with free energy from the sun. In most areas of southern Australia, a solar heater used in combination with a solar pool cover can add four to twelve weeks to the beginning and end of the swimming season. You get a longer swimming season and more enjoyment out of your pool for free.
Sun Solar Pool Heating equipment is durable
Solar equipment often lasts longer than gas or electric heaters. With proper yearly maintenance, you can expect fuel heaters to last seven to 10 years. Most gas heaters have a two year warranty, and quality heat pumps can carry one to three year warranties with a five year warranty on the compressor. Solar panels have a minimum 10 year warranty and generally last 15 to 20 years (or even longer).
Sun Solar Pool Heating requires less maintenance
Unlike gas and electric heaters, which should be serviced by a technician every year, a solar heater requires very little servicing. Again, that means less cost and less hassle for you the pool owner.
Sun Solar Pool Heating is good for the environment
Burning fuels release carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide (which can cause the formation of smog in urban areas). Using solar energy, instead of fossil fuels, can help reduce this bio hazard. Replacing a natural gas or propane heater with a solar heater can prevent the release of three to 10 tonnes of carbon dioxide (about the same amount produced by operating your car for one year) from entering the atmosphere each swim season. |
