Pool
Heating
Extend your family’s enjoyment of your swimming pool by heating its water with the free energy from the sun. Add value to your home while improving your lifestyle. The kids will never want to leave the pool again!
It’s a well known fact that most swimming pools rarely achieve comfortable swimming temperatures, even during the height of summer.
A standard Home Comfort solar system comprising solar panels and a solar heat retention blanket will improve your pool temperature by 10°C to 12°C warmer than normal. This will allow for comfortable swimming in most parts of South Africa for most of the year.
A Home Comfort solar system comprising solar panels only will increase your pool temperature by 5°C to 9°C warmer than normal. This will extend your annual swimming season to approximately seven months.
- No extra electricity costs – your existing pool pump is used to circulate the water through the panels.
- An investment – solar heating is affordable, yet the value of your house escalates markedly if such a feature is installed.
- Environmentally friendly – solar energy is clean energy. No pollution and no exploitation of limited natural resources.
- Ease of installation – installation takes less than a day. No mess, no fuss, no people walking through your house.
A Home Comfort pool heating system is the tried and tested method of heating any pool, large or small!
Don’t stop using your pool just because the water is too cold. Your pool is a big investment. Get maximum use and fun from the sun by heating your pool the Home Comfort way. Once installed, there are no running costs and your system works totally in harmony with nature.
Typical solar pool heating
installation
Home Comfort solar panels (made
of durable and hard-wearing
HDPE) are fitted to the roof.
Water from the pool is channelled
through the panels and is heated
by the sun’s rays. The water is
then returned to the pool by the
existing pool pump. With such an
efficient system temperatures
between 22°C to 41°C are
achieved. This system not only
absorbs heat directly from the sun,
but absorbs heat by conduction
from your roof. In effect, the roof
becomes part of the solar system.
Pool covers
Thermal pool covers are affordable,
easy to use and can be fitted to
any shape and size pool. They
raise the water temperature by
6°C to 8°C and reduce evaporation
by up to 90% – an important
consideration in a country where
water is a precious resource.
The covers prevent dirt and leaves from entering the pool and will assist in retaining heat generated in cases of heated pools. This contributes greatly to the conservation of energy as pool heat pumps and cleaning pumps can run for less time, saving power and costs. The covers are not used for safety purposes.
Modular system
The Home Comfort system is
modular, meaning that additional
panels can be added at any time,
roof space permitting. If a pool
cover is not to be used in
conjunction with the system, it is
normally recommended that
additional panels be added if
luxury temperatures are required.
Alternative water heating
option
A heat pump, using electrical
power as its source as opposed to
the sun, can be installed as an
alternative method for heating the
water in your swimming pool
- Modular system – easy to add panels to meet individual needs.
- Tried and tested technology – countrywide.
- Economical – the most cost effective way to heat your pool.
- 5-year warranty.
