Poolsolar - Solar Heating for your Swimming Pool

Solar heating is a great way to heat your pool. It can be used in isolation or combined with other heating methods (i.e. heatpump, electric/gas). Some advantages include:

  • Utilise the sun’s natural energy
  • Save money and the environment at the same time
  • Extend your swimming season
  • Easy to install on any surface
  • EPDM High quality rubber
  • Maintenance free
  • Immediate delivery
  • Full Poolsolar 5 Year warranty
SOLAR HEATING is a low cost alternative to heating your Above or Inground swimming pool throughout the Summer months.

In this country, unheated swimming pools only reach a pleasant temperature for a few days a year. Installing a Poolsolar system will enable you to increase your pool temperature to a pleasant level that will result in you enjoying and using your pool more than ever before, and what’s more, it’s free.

If you are an existing pool owner who already has a pool heater in some form or another and are fed up with paying excessive utility bills, then utilising the sun’s energy for free is an ideal alternative. Poolsolar can be attached to any existing filtration plant. What better way is there than using the sun’s energy to heat your pool.

AVAILABLE IN 2 SIZES 4M2 AND 5M2. ALL IN ONE BOX.

Poolsolar - How it works

How does Poolsolar heat up your pool?

How does Poolsolar heatUp your pool ?
By simply passing filtered pool water through stripsof E.P.D.M quality P.V.C Solar Matting which isheated by the sun’s rays. The matting is pre-fittedto P.V.C Manifolds that are connected to each other.The manifolds must be plumbed directly to the filtration plant. The amount of Poolsolar you require will depend upon the size of your pool.
Where is the best place to install the PoolsolarSystem?
Poolsolar can be installed almost anywhere - on theroof of your house, garage, porch, summer house,pergola or directly on the lawn. The only importantrequirement is a sunny place i.e. south facing to ensure maximum heat absorption.
Under normal conditions you need to use only half the surface area of your pool as the collector surface i.e. a 30 x15’ pool is 450 sqft, therefore approximately 225 sqft of Poolsolar matting is required. For south-east and southwesterly facing positions in cooler climates the Poolsolar matting should be increased by 35-40%.

Poolsolar Swimming Pool Solar heating - What size? What price?

Some pool sizes result in requiring an additional half box, but this is not possible to supply. Therefore, we have shown the minimum and optimum number of rolls required. For above ground swimming pools we have reduced the amount of solar collectors by 20% to allow for heat absorbtion through the steel wall structure.

Note. You will need to purchase enough solar matting to cover 50% of the pool surface area.

If a heat retention cover is not to be applied overnight you will need to double the quantities below.
