Pool Solar Heater

Make a Swimming Pool Solar Heater and Save

Solar energy is an excellent way to heat your swimming pool for next-to-nothing.  A solar water heater will let you enjoy a longer swimming season and keep your pool warm during cooler evenings without having to worry about the heating costs.

Swimming pool solar heating systems can heat a large amount of water each day, and are quite capable of keeping the pool temperature in the 80 – 85 degree range even in moderate climates.

Installing a swimming pool solar heating system also adds value to your home.

Buying a ready-made solar water heating system could cost you anywhere from $2,000 to $4,000 depending on the size of the collectors and the installation charges. However, you can make your own solar heating system for an average-sized pool for less than $200, including materials, plans and expert guidance.

Solar pool heaters are connected directly to your existing pool filter system.  During the day while the filter is operating, the pool water is passed through the solar collectors and returned to the pool.  It is possible to have a system without any moving parts, such as a recirculating pump, but this is governed by the daily sunshine activity locally.

The solar collectors are often mounted on roofs to get the best exposure to direct sunshine. Ideally the collectors should face the mid-day sun and be at an angle equivalent to your latitude less 10 to 15 degrees. The total area of the solar collectors will depend on various factors, but it will be at least 50% of the pool surface area. This will be at least 75% if the collector panels are laid flat or facing west.

In some cases, where there are significant shade or strong prevailing winds, the collector area can be as much as 100% of pool size.  Because solar collectors tend to take up a lot of space, it is often advisable to fix them to a ground frame or even a suitable fence.

These are some factors which need to be considered in the design of a swimming pool solar heater:

• Climate and sunshine levels.
• Building codes and safety issues.
• Pool size.
• Duration of the swimming season.
• Desired pool temperature level.
• Collector efficiency.

This is why you should consider getting some guidance in designing your swimming pool solar heating system, because only someone with professional experience will be able to put forward the best solar pool heating system for your particular circumstances.

It is very easy to make and fit your own swimming pool solar heating system and you need no special skills or tools. All materials are available from local hardware stores and garden shops.

But, as we have already mentioned, getting professional input will ensure that you make a good-quality job making your solar pool heaters.  For less than $200, including all plans, instructions, materials and expert guidance, you can have a fully working and professional solar water heating system for your swimming pool – that is an inspiring idea!

Swimming Pool Solar Sun Rings -( SSRN , Solar Sun Rings ) $19.99 What Are Solar Sun Rings? The Solar Sun Ring is a passive solar swimming pool heating device made from two sheets of heavyweight U.V. resistant vinyl. The upper clear layer holds insulating air and focuses sunlight on the blue colored lower layer. The blue layer absorbs about 50% of the sunlight and converts it to heat. The balance of the sunlight is allowed topass through for deep water heating. Each Sun Solar Ring generates 21,000 BTU per day. Rings are 60" in diameter.How Do Solar Sun Rings Work? At night the contained air acts as an insulating blanket to retain heat gained during daylight. Solar Sun Rings are equipped with six 32 gauss magnets to improve clarity and decrease hardness of the waterin your pool. The magnets are positioned to facilitate rafting. The strength of the magnets will permit single position removal but will easily separate to prevententrapment in accidental falls.Solar Sun Rings were designed to be compatible with automatic pool cleaners. In the event the suction hose catches on a ring, the ring will separate from the raft to allow the pool cleaner to continue. Neither water norpool chemicals can evaporate through the Solar Sun Rings two layers of heavyweight vinyl. You will save water and chemicals about equal to the percentage of the surface covered. Once the water in your pool has reached adequate temperature, Solar Sun Rings may be turned over to conserve water by limiting evaporation without significantly heating the water.Your pool requires some direct sunlight and open water to stay healthy. The open water around the raft of Solar Sun Rings and the triangle caused by the convergence of three Solar Sun Rings is by design. These open areas allow your pool to receive some direct sunlight. This sunlight will greatly reduce the incidence of mustard algae.Easily Cleaned - After removal from the swimming pool, Solar Sun Rings can be easily cleaned with a sponge and mild detergent solution.Warranty: Solar Sun Rings are warranted to be free of manufacturing defects for two years. Warranty is limited to materials and workmanship.Solar Sun Rings Features:Safety: No other floating solar cover matches SolarSun Rings design for safety. Countless pets and many people have died because of entrapment with the one piece bubble pack covers. The primary design criteria of the Solar Sun Ring was to prevent entrapment.Durability: High quality ultra violet resistant vinyl(polyvinyl chloride) is used exclusively for durability that cannot be achievedby the inferior plastic used in bubble pack covers. Vinyl will normally outlastpolyethylene 3 to 1. The vinyl used to manufacture Solar Sun Rings is not destroyed by pH fluctuation
