Product Information

Solar panels set up on the ground are both easier to install and to adjust. However, they do take up a fair amount of room. If you want to install on top of your house, you will of course have to consider the direction of your roof. No matter where you decide to install the panels, they will need as much sun exposure as possible. If you don't have enough exposure, you will have to invest in more solar panels to make up the difference which will of course mean more costs. A. At present unfortunately no we do not have installers as we ship around Australia. However, our manuals are very comprehensive and cover most situations and issues. There is also unlimited tech support available. Most handymen/tradespeople can install our systems. From what we hear, solar pool heating installs are very seasonal, hence most specialist pool heating installers are run off their feet during the install season, this means they charge an arm and a leg for poor rushed installs.

Comparing Solar Swimming Pool Heating System Costs

Solar panels can be installed on the ground or on a roof. If you choose to install on a roof, you can use the roof of your house, an outbuilding or even your shed (provided it is big enough). These warranties are the only warranties and it is understood that no other warranties are expressed or implied without otherwise being agreed in writing. Under standard conditions, you need to take only half of the surface area dimensions of your pool as a guide for how much solar matting you require. Poolsolar will not be liable for consequential damages to you home or other equipment, loss of time, inconvenience or loss of use of the solar collector.

Generally speaking, the size of your solar panels will need to be at least 30 to 50% of the total pool area. Of course, this percentage will be considerably higher if you're hoping to heat a pool in the north of the country. Solar panels should be set at an incline of about 30° to make the most of the summer sun. Where to install your solar panels Having said all of that; you should only consider DIY if you're confident of performing the work safely. If you need to get up on a pitched two story roof and you are not 100% confident, best leave it to the professionals, as you should never underestimate the chance of a fall. If you can't DIY try to source a trusted installer - at the very least go with a company with good component and installation quality control standards. Both glazed and unglazed collector systems must include freeze protection if they'll be used in colder conditions.

Solar Matting Location Examples The solar heater works really well. The solar cover helps a lot too, but the heater, actually, you can feel warm water coming out, even after an hour of it running. I thought it would be warm at first and then dissipate. But it, actually, stays one which is pretty amazing and sometimes in the morning, when this doesn't even have Sun over here."
