Solar Pool Heating Systems

Swimming Pools Energis Solar - modern thermal technology is the most cost effective way to heat your swimming pool, with pay back times for a swimming pool solar panels as little as 5 yeas. The size of your swimming pool does not matter weathers it’s a small domestic swimming pool or Olympic size pool that needs heating. With energy a price spiralling out of control it makes sense switch from expensive fossil fuel to heat your pool now and take advantage of the natural light from the sun. Our solar panels collect the natural energy from the sun and convert that into heating your pool. Our Philosophy Heating your swimming pool by traditional fossil fuel is very expensive and very wasteful of the planet's resources. Burning gas or oil creates harmful emissions and increases our fuel dependency for sourcing our energy from parts of the world that may not always be stable, friendly or even capable of supplying our fuel needs. Most swimming pools can be heated using only solar thermal technology, wherever they are situated. At energis we believe that it is important to install solar systems that look good, but without compromising on performance, built to last a life time with minimal maintenance. That’s why our solar systems come with a standard 25 year guarantee. Our solar pool heating system uses an indirect heat exchanger connected to our high high quality solar panels that are built in Europe. Our guarantee is incomparable as it is 25 years which more than covers the payback time of a system. The panels are designed to have a life span of more than 35 years and are made from easily recyclable materials, such as aluminium, copper and glass. .

Solar Pool Performance

Pools should be heated to around 28°C. If you heat your pool to any significantly higher temperature algae and bacteria can cause problems unless you increase the chlorine levels significantly. Temperatures lower than about 25°C are uncomfortable for most people. Energis thermal solar systems provide pool temperatures within the recommended range in most locations without the need to have a boiler system or an electric heating system. These levels of performance are not possible in Northern latitudes in winter, when the daylight hours are short. When your pool system is designed by us we will provide you with an estimate, based on meteorological conditions, site conditions to keep you swimming pool warm all year round using the natural suns energy. How Genersys Pool Heating Works An array of Genersys thermal solar panels is installed on a south facing roof or south facing poolside area. The amount of panels required depends upon the size of the pools and the performance needed. The panels are connected through a sealed circuit to a specially designed chlorine resistant pool heat exchanged. The sealed circuit is filled with an edible glycol solution (in places where below freezing temperatures can be experienced). When light from the panels strikes the absorber surfaces heat is created. If the pool requires the heat a modulating pump pushes the glycol solution (and the heat it carries) to the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger carries the heat (but not the glycol) to the pool water that is pumped through it. The heat exchange operation is carried out immediately before the pool water is returned into the pool, after it has been filtered. Provided the temperature at the panels is higher than the temperature in the pool, Genersys will heat the pool. What do the panels look like? Old fashioned thermal solar panels look ugly; they usually cannot be integrated and if the pool water flows through them they have to be cleaned and descaled and often have a short pool life. Genersys panels have been designed to be thin, aesthetically acceptable and yet light enough to be installed on pool side buildings. What is the payback? Of course, if you heat your pool by oil or gas, there is no payback. Pay back varies according to where your pool is, in-door or out-door, is it covered at night, after an initial site survey we will be able to provide you with an accurate estimate.
