Pool Heating
If you’ve been exploring options online, you’ve likely noticed that there are several types of pool heating available, including gas, electric, and solar. At All Seasons Solar, we specialise in installing all these styles of heating, and sometimes combine solar with another type as a backup to ensure consistent warmth. Each form of heating offers its own unique benefits, whether it’s the fast heating of gas, the efficiency of electric systems, or the eco-friendliness of solar. We help you choose the best solution to suit your specific needs and ensure your pool remains comfortably warm year-round.
Electric Heat Pump
Heat Pumps are basically an air conditioner for your pool. They have become significantly more efficient to run in recent years as compared to the old style electric heaters, with efficiency gains over gas and solar. They work on utilising the ambient temperature to heat the pool water. The heat pumps pictured here from Evo Heat Pumps, can work down below zero degrees celsius. This gives them an incredible range of operation.
As with solar they have a lead in time to bring the pool up to temp, but they can supply warmth on days where the solar might not, due to their method of operation. Perfect for use in conjunction with Solar PV.
Gas Heating
This is the most flexible of heating options. But as you would expect with flexibility comes the added cost of running the heater. All gas heaters run off your pool filtration system and as such don’t have another pump to run it, but they still need the gas to burn to provide the heat.
If you want to be able to turn your heater on at 2pm in the afternoon and swim in warm water that evening AND not care about the cost to run, then this is the option for you. It is the only option that will work all year. It just gets a bit expensive to run and a lot of fine tuning to make it efficient is required by the owner for this to happen.
