SOLAR SWIMMING POOL HEATING
Swimming pool collectors are designed for outdoor pools. In most of the country outdoor pools are used six to nine months of the year. Pool collectors are normally made of polypropylene, a high temperature plastic that can consistently operate in the 200°F range. The collectors are black in color and should normally keep a pool in the 80°F range throughout the pool season. The same pump that filters the pool is used to circulate pool water through the collectors. A quick rule of thumb for pool design sizing is one square foot of collector surface area to every two square feet of pool surface area. This can give you a good idea of how large a pool system is required. You will need more collector surface area if your pool is left uncovered, especially in the spring and fall. The pool collectors should face within 30° of true south and are tilted at an angle of latitude minus 15° from horizontal. Virtually all of the pool systems we install today use a simple mechanical timer to control the pump. You simply filter and heat the pool during daylight hours. Outdoor pool systems probably have one of the quickest returns on your investment of any solar energy equipment. In most cases it is simply foolish not to consider heating an outdoor swimming pool with solar energy.
The Sun Swim collector is the only one that you can purchase that has been successfully heating pools since 1976. It has been engineered as a completely integrated system to exacting specifications and quality control to provide you with extended trouble free performance. It contains superior components, including stainless steel hardware for greater strength. It is the only solar collector to ever survive a 23 year life expectance test in the Arizona desert. Made in the U.S.A. and constructed of specially formulated polymer compounds.
