Solar Pool Heating: Enjoy Quality Time In The Pool Even When The Weather Is ColdYour Best Option There no doubts that solar pool heating is your best option because of the relatively inexpensive solution that it provides and because it keeps the environment clean and does not add to the emission of greenhouse gases either. With solar pool heating, you can enjoy your time in the pool without feeling guilty that you are polluting the environment or having to contend with high energy costs. Of course, if you choose to use commercial pool heaters, it would set you back a couple of thousand dollars, though building one on your own would cost but a fraction of that cost. If you do choose to go it on your own, makes sure to have the essential elements included and check that you have all the materials required listed and have instructions on how to proceed further and also have crisp as well as clear diagrams, though you need not worry about complicated engineering requirements or special skills for welding or drilling. Essentially, solar pool heating works on the principle of passive solar use and you would need to flow pool water through flexible tubing that are suspended where reflectors receive as well as transmit warmth from the sun to water held in the tubing, which (tubing) must be protected from any chilly winds and using polythene sheets is recommended in this regard. You can also use reflectors and also a not very large pond pump or even a pump run on solar electricity, which though costlier is more environment friendly and this pump should be able to deliver at least ten liters per minute and which should also raise water to a height of 1.6 meters. The tubing, reflectors and also the cover can be assembled into the solar panel whose size should be such that it handles the load well and also provides most efficient heating, and you can also use more than one panel for your solar pool heating needs. The panels need to be placed so that they receive the maximum amount of sunlight, and to get best results, point them to where the mid day position of the sun is and also they need to be placed vertically on the roof or failing that, on a fence. Also, to get the most out of your solar pool heating, you may want to use the solar pool heater along with a solar blanket, and once everything is in place you can go ahead and enjoy your swim in a pool heated by the sun. |
